Oil Seal (Oil Pump) Replacement

OIL SEAL (OIL PUMP) REPLACEMENT

NOTE: Perform the following servicing only if the oil seal is replaced due to ATF leakage from the oil seal (oil pump).

1. Clean the outside of the transaxle. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE CLEANING.)






2. Remove the stud bolts.






3. Remove the torque converter.
4. Install the transaxle to the SST (engine stand) using the following procedure:

CAUTION: When installing the transaxle to the SST (engine stand) using chain hoists, be careful not to allow the transaxle (oil cooler in particular) to contact the SST (engine stand). If the transaxle contacts the SST, check the areas that made contact and replace damaged parts with new ones.
