| Pressure Gauge Installation |
|
You will need
to install a 0-300psi pressure gauge in order to perform this test.
The pressure gauge must be attached to the direct pump pressure
port on the driver's side of the transmission. These readings should
be taken right after the initial startup of the transmission, the
vehicle shouldn't be driven until you verify these pressures with
our facility. If the vehicle is driven prior to our approval it
may void your warranty.

| Pressure Test |
| Please read the
following three tests very carefully, these are very critical.
Once you have
set up the T.V. cable correctly according to the instructions for
your specific T.V. system, you will need to bring the engine up
to operating temperature and perform the following three tests as
follows:
|
| Pressure @ Idle T.V. Connected |
| With the vehicle
running at an idle, make sure that the T.V. cable connected to the
carburetor/fuel injection linkage, and adjusted to the appropriate
settings. With the gear selector in park record the reading off of
the pressure gauge. Next pull the gear selector down into reverse
and take that reading, then continue to shift the shifter down through
the rest of the gears one by one taking a reading in each gear. |
| Pressure @ Idle T.V. Disconnected |
| Once again with
the vehicle running at a idle, disconnect the T.V. cable from the
carburetor/fuel injection linkage, and simply record the pressure
readings again in each gear. |
| Pressure @ High Idle Full T.V. |
You will need
a helper to help you perform this last test. This test is a little
bit more complex and will require the use of an assistant.
On this test we will once again start off in park, bring the vehicle
up to approximately 1500 rpm's and have your assistant pull the T.V.
cable all of the way out until he can feel it stop, it will stop when
it buries the plunger in the transmission, now take a pressure reading,
release the T.V. cable and let the engine rpm back down to a idle.
Now we need to perform this same test in the remaining six gears,
upon doing this in the other gears the car is going to try to move
as if we were power braking it, so we highly recommend that you set
the emergency brake and keep you foot planted firmly in the brake
