Cleaning & Inspection: Cleaning

Wash all parts in cleaning solvent, except composition clutch plates, bands and synthetic seals. Use scraper or brush for heavy deposits. Rotate bearings by hand in cleaning solvent.

Dry all parts and blow out fluid passages with moisture-free compressed air. Hold bearings while drying to prevent bearing from spinning. DO NOT  spin dry bearings.

Lubricate clean bearings with transmission fluid and wrap in lint-free cloth until ready to install. Soak new clutch plates and bands in transmission fluid for at least 30 minutes prior to installation.
