WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1989 Plymouth Gran Fury, 1989 Dodge Diplomat, and 1989 Chrysler Fifth Avenue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Low-Reverse band adjustment screw is located on rear servo lever. Band adjustment screw is not accessible unless oil pan is removed. See Fig 1.
  1. Drain transmission and remove oil pan. Loosen band adjustment screw lock nut (while preventing adjustment screw from turning) and back off nut 5 turns. Ensure adjustment screw turns freely in case.
  2. When tightening adjustment screw, tighten screw to 72 INCH lbs. (8 N.m). Back off adjustment screw the specified number of turns. See LOW-REVERSE BAND ADJUSTMENT . Hold in this position and tighten lock nut to 30 ft. lbs. (41 N.m).
  3. Clean oil pan and remove all gasket material from pan and case. Install oil pan using new pan gasket. Add the required amount of ATF fluid to fill transmission. Road test vehicle and recheck fluid level.
