Clearance Check

NOTE: There are various gauges used for different size torque converters. Be sure to use the correct gauges.
  1. Insert applicable test tool into converter pump drive hub and bottom tool. Expand sleeve in turbine splines by tightening threaded inner post of test tool.
  2. Attach dial indicator to tool, rest indicator on converter pump drive hub. Zero dial gauge. Lift tool upward and note indicator reading.
  3. Reading is total converter and clearance. If clearance exceeds .021" (.53mm) new or rebuilt converter, or .040" (1.20mm) used converter, replace torque converter.
