(9) Pull valve body forward to disengage park rod.
(10) Push manual lever shaft and solenoid case
connector out of transmission case.
(11) Lower valve body, rotate it away from case,
pull park lock rod out of sprag, and remove valve
body (Fig. 83).
INSTALLATION
(1) Verify that park/neutral position switch is NOT
installed. Valve body cannot be installed with switch
in place. Remove switch if necessary.
(2) Install new seals on accumulator piston if nec-
essary, and install piston in case. Use small amount
of petroleum jelly to hold piston in place.
(3) Place valve body manual lever in low (1 posi-
tion) to ease inserting park rod into sprag.
(4) Use screwdriver to push park sprag into
engagement with park gear. This makes clearance for
knob on lock rod to move past sprag when valve body
is installed. Rotate output shaft to verify sprag
engagement.
(5) Position accumulator spring between accumula-
tor piston and valve body.
(6) Position valve body on transmission and work
knob on park lock rod past sprag. Be sure accumula-
tor piston and spring remain in position.
(7) Hold valve body in position and install valve
body screws finger tight.
(8) Install park/neutral position switch.
(9) Tighten valve body screws alternately and
evenly to 11 N·m (100 in. lbs.) torque.
(10) Install new fluid filter on valve body. Install
and tighten filter screws to 4 N·m (35 in. lbs.) torque.
(11) Connect solenoid wire to case connector.
(12) Install manual and throttle levers on throttle
lever shaft. Tighten lever clamp screws and check for
free operation. Shaft and levers must operate freely
without any bind.
(13) Install oil pan and new gasket. Tighten pan
bolts to 17 N·m (150 in. lbs.) torque. Install gasket
dry; do not use sealer.
(14) Connect park/neutral position switch and con-
verter clutch solenoid wires.
(15) Install speedometer pinion gear, adapter and
speed sensor.
