Valve Body Assembly: Reassembly

  1. Install all valves into their respective bores using illustrations as guide. Ensure chamfered stem of throttle control valve faces throttle plunger. Retainer plate used for 2-3 capacity modulator valve is thicker and longer than other retainer plates. Ensure notch in plugs face bottom of bore.
  2. The 1-2 accumulator valve and valve body diameters are not the same for all models. The 1-2 accumulator valve bore plug "O" ring must face outside of valve body. To install Overdrive servo valve bore plug, turn retaining plate into plug slot.
  3. Install valve body check balls. See Figure . Ensure Orange check ball is correctly installed. This check ball is larger than others and is not interchangeable. Install pressure relief valves and springs. See Figure .
  4. Install Alignment Pins (T80L-77100-A) into holes. See Fig 2 . These 2 holes are smaller than other bolt holes to assure proper alignment of gasket and separator plate with valve body. These 2 holes also align valve body gasket and valve body assembly with case.
  5. Using a NEW separator plate gasket, slide plate and gasket over alignment pins. Position 3 reinforcement plates and loosely install retaining bolts. See Figure .
  6. Loosely install detent spring guide bolt. Detent spring guide bolt is same length as short valve body-to-case retaining bolts. Starting at center (large) reinforcement plate and working outward, tighten retaining bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  . Remove alignment pins.
