Oil Pressure Tests

OIL PRESSURE TESTS
1. Completely warm up the transaxle.
2. Raise the vehicle by using a jack so that the drive wheels can be rotated.
3. Connect an engine tachometer and place it in a position where it's easy to see.











4. Attach the special oil-pressure gauge and the adaptor to each oil-pressure outlet port. When the reverse position pressure is to be tested, the 3,000 kPa (400 psi) type of gauge should be used.
5. Measure the oil pressure under various conditions , and check to be sure that the measured results are within the standard value range shown in the "Standard oil pressure table" below.











If the oil pressure is not within the specified range. check and repair as described in the section "Remedial steps if oi1 pressure is not normal".
