bolts by hand. Then tighten bolts evenly, in a diag­
onal pattern to 12 N-m (105 in. lbs.) torque. Do not
overtighten valve body bolts. This could re­
sult in distortion and cross leakage after in­
stallation..

(72 in. lbs.) with torque wrench.
(c) Back off front band adjusting screw 2-1/4 turns.
(d) Back off rear band screw 4 turns.
(e) Tighten each adjusting screw locknut. Hold
adjusting screws with wrench to prevent turning
when tightening locknut.

(59) Install throttle valve and shift selector levers
on valve body manual lever shaft.
(60) Cap or cover transmission openings (cooler
line fittings, filler tube bore, etc.) to prevent dirt en­
try.
(61) Install torque converter. Use C-clamp or metal
strap to hold converter in place for installation.
(62) Mount transmission on jack for installation in
vehicle.
(63) Apply dielectric grease to terminal pins of so­
lenoid case connector and neutral switch.
CAUTION: The transmission cooler and lines must
be reverse flushed if overhaul corrected a malfunc­
tion that generated sludge, metal particles, or
clutch friction material. The torque converter and
drainback valve should also be replaced if contam­
inated by the same malfunction. Debris and residue
not flushed from the cooler and lines will flow back
into the transmission and converter. The result
could be a repeat failure and shop comeback.
