2. Check the condition of the bushing. To check for wear, you will need an internal micrometer or feeler gauge. Measure the diameter of the cylinder bore, compare it with the wear limit given in Specifications.
3. Check the cooling blades on the converter.
4. Install the turbine shaft into the converter and check the free rotation of the turbine.
5. If the fluid is dirty, drain it from the torque converter before installing the automatic transmission.
6. Prepare a container with a capacity of about 2 liters, a plastic bottle and a piece of plastic tube with an outer diameter of no more than 8 pcs.
7. Place the torque converter on a table and support it so that it is slightly tilted.
8. Cut one end of the plastic pipe at an angle so that the end of the pipe will not be blocked if it rests against a flat surface. Insert this end into the torque converter hub until it stops.
9. Connect the jet. Insert the other end of the tube into a plastic bottle, place the bottle below the level of the torque converter and squeeze it. When the bottle expands, the fluid will be sucked out. Suck the fluid out of the torque converter as much as possible. When assembling and installing, the converter will fill with fluid itself as soon as the engine starts.
