This test is used for checking condition of underdrive clutch, forward clutch, direct clutch and 1st and reverse brake. Apply parking brake and start engine. Make sure idle speed is set to specification. See IDLE SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table.
- Move selector lever from "N" to "D" position. Measure time required for shock to be felt. Time lag must be less than 1.2 seconds. Repeat procedure shifting from "N" to "R" position. Time lag must be less than 1.5 seconds. See TIME LAG TEST RESULTS below.
