1. Attach the torque converter on the transaxle side and mount the transaxle assembly onto the engine. CAUTION: If the torque converter is mounted first on the engine, the oil seal on the transaxle may be damaged. Therefore, be sure to first assemble the torque converter to the transaxle.
2. Install the transaxle control cable and adjust as follows. Move the shift lever and the transaxle range switch to the "N" position, and install the control cable. When connecting the control cable to the transaxle mounting bracket, install the clip until it contacts the control cable. Remove any free-play in the control cable by adjusting nut and then check to see that the selector lever moves smoothly. Check to see that the control cable has been adjusted correctly.
3. Installation is the reverse of removal.
