Stall Speed Test

1. Road test vehicle until transaxle reaches normal operating temperatures (122-176°F).
2. Block front and rear wheels, then connect a suitable tachometer to engine according to manufacturer's instructions.
3. Fully apply parking brake.
4. start and idle engine
5. With brake pedal firmly applied Shift vehicle into "D" range, then press all the way down on accelerator pedal.
6.Stall speed should be 2100 +/- 150 RPM.
7. Repeat test with transaxle selector lever in "R."
8. If engine speed is the same in both ranges, but lower than specified in step 6, engine output is insufficient or stator one-way clutch is not operating properly. If engine speed is 600 RPM less than specified in step 6, torque converter may be at fault.
9. If stall speed in "D" range is higher than specified in step 6, low line pressure, slipping forward clutch, or improperly operating one-way clutch is indicated.
10. If stall speed in "R" range is higher than specified in step 6, low line pressure, slipping direct clutch or slipping first and reverse brake is indicated.
11. If stall speed in "R," and "D," range is higher than specified in step 6, low line pressure or incorrect fluid level is indicated.
