    IMPORTANT: The preferred method of dislodging the 2-6 clutch piston is with compressed air. If compressed air is not available, remove the 2-6 clutch piston assembly using pliers. If compressed air is used, note the following. Use a 9.5 mm (3/8 in) rubber hose on the air connection to reach into the 2-6 clutch annulus port. When shooting air into the annulus port, ensure that the rubber hose covers both of the 2-6 clutch annulus port holes.
  1. Position the rubber hose so that the hose covers both 2-6 clutch annulus holes (1).
