Line Pressure Test - Without Overdrive

LINE PRESSURE TEST





Line pressure test requires following conditions.
- Automatic fluid is at normal operating temperature (88 to 93°C/190 to 200°F).
- Fluid is filled to proper level (between FULL HOT and LOW HOT on oil level gauge).





Testing procedure is as follows.
1. Place a wooden block between distributor gear housing and dash panel so as to prevent distributor from contacting dash panel and distributor cap and other parts from getting damaged when transmission is lowered.

NOTE: A plug for pressure test is located on the LEFT HAND of transmission.

5. Raise transmission and fix cross member and exhaust center pipe with bolts.





6. Lower lift and remove wooden block. Then start engine and measure line pressure under each condition to check its conformity with specification as given.
7. After checking, with wooden block placed to protect distributor again, lower transmission and remove pressure gauge.





8. Torque plug to specification.
