2. Insert the Converter Clutch Torquing Tool T76L-7902-C in converter pump drive hub to engage one-way clutch inner race.





3. Attach a torque wrench to the converter clutch torquing tool. With the converter clutch holding tool held stationary, turn the torque wrench counterclockwise.

Try the clutch for lock up and hold in at least five different locations around the torque converter.
