TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY
8. Remove crankshaft position sensor (POS) from A/T assembly.
CAUTION:
• Do not subject it to impact by dropping or hitting it.
• Do not disassemble.
• Do not allow metal filings or foreign material to get on the
sensor front edge magnetic area.
• Do not place in an area affected by magnetism.
9. Remove fluid cooler tube.
10. Remove dust cover from converter housing.
11. Turn crankshaft to access and remove the four bolts for drive
plate and torque converter.
CAUTION:
When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from
the front of the engine.
12. Support A/T assembly with a transmission jack.
CAUTION:
When setting the transmission jack, be careful not to allow
it to collide against the drain plug.
13. Remove cross member using power tool.
14. Remove air breather hose. Refer to AT-221, "
Removal and
Installation".
15. Disconnect A/T assembly connector.
16. Remove A/T fluid indicator pipe from A/T assembly.
17. Plug any openings such as the A/T fluid indicator pipe hole.
18. Remove the A/T assembly to engine bolts using power tool.
19. Remove A/T assembly from vehicle using transmission jack.
CAUTION:

• When installing transmission to the engine, attach the bolts as shown.
NOTE:
*: No.2 bolt also secures air breather vent.
CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or transmission you must make
sure the dowels are installed correctly during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause
vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drivetrain components.
• Align the positions of bolts for drive plate with those of the torque
converter, and temporarily tighten the bolts. Then tighten the bolts
with the specified torque.
CAUTION:
• When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the
front of the engine.
• After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft
several turns and check to be sure that transmission rotates
freely without binding.
• Install crankshaft position sensor (POS).
• After completing installation check fluid leakage, fluid level and the
positions of A/T. Refer to AT-13, "
Checking Automatic Transmis-
sion Fluid (ATF)", AT-208, "Checking of A/T Position" and AT-208, "Adjustment of A/T Position".
