Automatic Transmission Assembly (For 1Vd-Ftv) Installation

Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure the dimension (A) between the automatic transmission assembly contact surface of the engine assembly (*b) and the torque converter assembly contact surface of the drive plate (*a).

Align the matchmark on the automatic transmission case sub-assembly with the one on the torque converter assembly and engage the splines of the input shaft with the turbine runner splines.

NOTICE:

Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.

Rotate the torque converter assembly approximately 180° and engage the splines of the stator shaft with the stator assembly.

NOTICE:

1. Do not damage the front oil pump oil seal.
   
2. Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
   

Rotate the torque converter assembly approximately 180° again, align the matchmark on the torque converter assembly with the one on the automatic transmission case sub-assembly and insert the key of the torque converter assembly into the groove of the oil pump drive gear.

NOTICE:

1. Do not push the torque converter assembly excessively when rotating it.
   
2. Do not damage the front oil pump oil seal.
   
3. Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
   

Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure the dimension (B) shown in the illustration and check that the dimension (B) is more than the dimension (A), which was measured in the previous step.

Standard distance:

B = A + 1.00 mm (0.0394 in.) or more

NOTICE:

1. Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
   
2. If the automatic transmission assembly is installed to the engine assembly with the torque converter assembly not sufficiently inserted, the torque converter assembly may be damaged.
