Pressure Differential Check

  1. Possible leakage in clutch circuits may be determined by checking oil pressure differential between line pressure and 2nd, 3rd and 4th clutches. Attach pressure gauges to line pressure tap and appropriate clutch circuit tap on transmission.
  2. Circuit tap for 2nd clutch is located on right rear side of transmission, above pan. Circuit tap for 3rd clutch is located next to 2-4 servo, above 4th clutch circuit tap. See Figure . Drive vehicle, and note both pressure readings. Pressure differential between line pressure and clutch circuits exceeding 10 psi (0.70 kg/cm2 ) indicates possible leakage in clutch circuit.
