  • Page 12: Removing Air From Cylinder

    Removing Air From the Cylinder When using the T-TECH for the first time, there may be space at the top of the cylinder (air in the cylinder). If not corrected, this condition may short future exchanges. If for some reason the piston is at the bottom of the cylinder, or there is large air pocket above the piston, the piston can be moved to the top of the cylinder by the following method.

  • Page 14: Fill Cylinder Function

    Fill Cylinder Function The Fill Cylinder function is used to fill the T-TECH cylinder with new ATF and empty the cylinder of old ATF. CAUTION: Fill cylinder completely. Air below the piston will result in an incomplete exchange as this air will compress and not move the piston at beginning of the exchange process.

    Note: In this vehicle (Chevy Blazer) the top radiator line is determined (for this example) to be the easiest location to make the T-TECH connection. 3. If available, use a transmission cooling line wrench (an open end wrench, flare nut wrench, or adjustable wrench) to remove the cooling line from the radiator (see Figure 43).
  • Page 16 ATF from the vehicle is always coming into the bottom of the T-TECH cylinder and the new ATF is moved out of the top of the T-TECH cylinder and into the vehicle transmission. When the transfer hoses have been connected, the system should look like the illustration in Figure 47.
  • Page 17: Fluid Exchange Function

    Fluid Exchange Function Use this function to exchange old automatic transmission fluid (ATF) with new ATF. 1. With the T-TECH auto align feature, you need not be concerned about which service transfer hose is connected to the transmission cooling line or to the radiator because flow direction is controlled through the T-TECH unit.
  • Page 18: Bypass Feature

    (old ATF has displaced all of the new ATF), the bypass feature is automatically engaged. This causes the new fluid to be forced into a loop through the vehicle and the T-TECH unit. The bypass will continue until stopped when the operator turns the vehicle OFF.
