Poor acceleration; flares when starting off in D, D3, S, 2, 1, and R; stall speed high in R
Probable cause(s)
-
Shift cable broken or out of adjustment
-
5th clutch defective
Notes
Check for a loose shift cable at the shift lever and the transmission control lever.
Check the 5th clutch pressure.
Inspect the mainshaft and 5th clutch for wear and damage.
Inspect the clutch piston, clutch piston check valve, and O-rings. Check the spring retainer for wear and damage. Inspect the clearance between the clutch end-plate and the top disc. If the clearance is out of tolerance, inspect the clutch discs and plates for wear and damage, and inspect the clutch wave-plate height. If the discs and plates are worn or damaged, replace them as a set. If the wave-plate height is out of tolerance, replace the wave-plate. If they are OK, adjust the clearance with the clutch end-plate.
