Line Replacement

- When fluid leakage is found at the transmission fluid cooler, the transmission fluid cooler must be replaced.
- When one or more of the fluid cooler inlet tube and fluid cooler tube must be replaced, each replacement tube must be fabricated from the same size steel tubing as the original line.

1. Using the old tube as a guide, bend the new tube as required. Add the necessary fittings and install the tube.
2. Tighten cooler tube-to-case fittings to 20-26 Nm (15-19 ft. lbs.).
3. Tighten cooler tube fittings to 24-31 Nm (18-22 ft. lbs.).
4. After the fittings have been tightened, add specified fluid as necessary and check for fluid leaks.
