T.V. Pressure Check & Adjustment With Engine On
- Remove plug. Install Pressure Gauge (T86L-70002-A) in T.V. pressure tap on side of transmission case. (Scheme 43) Remove cover from T.V. control cable linkage.
- Insert tapered end of T.V. Cable Control Pressure Gauge Adjuster (T86L-70332-A) between slug on end of cable and plastic fitting attached to throttle lever. (Scheme 44)
- Push T.V. cable control pressure gauge adjuster inward as far as possible, forcing slug away from plastic fitting. Start and warm engine and transmission to normal operating temperature. NOTE: Transmission fluid temperature should be 100-150°F (37-65°C) when checking T.V. pressure. DO NOT perform T.V. pressure check unless transmission fluid temperature is correct.
- Apply parking brake. Place transmission in Neutral. DO NOT check T.V. control pressure with transmission in Park. With engine idling, T.V. control pressure should be 28-38 psi (1.97-2.67 kg/cm 2 ).
- If T.V. control pressure is not within specification, adjust T.V. control cable. To adjust T.V. control cable, pry up on T.V. control cable locking tab at throttle body. (Scheme 44)
- The adjuster preload spring should cause adjusting slider to move away from throttle body, causing T.V. control pressure to increase. Push on adjusting slider from behind throttle body bracket until T.V. control pressure is 33 psi (2.3 kg/cm 2 ). (Scheme 44)
- While holding slider, push T.V. control cable locking tab downward as far as possible to lock slider into position. Remove T.V. cable control pressure gauge adjuster. Allow engine to return to idle.
- With engine idling and transmission in Neutral, T.V. control pressure should be less than 5 psi. (.3 kg/cm 2 ), preferably near zero. If T.V. control pressure is not as specified, readjust. Remove pressure gauge. Install and tighten plug to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
