If oil pressure in (fi> (overdrive) at 1,000 rpm is normal, proceed to step 2. If oil pressure
is high, proceed to step 5.
Step 2.
Check front accumulator for damaged piston, rings, and broken or missing spring. Check
valve to accumulator feed for obstructions. Replace piston rings and broken or missing
spring (para. 28-17) if damaged.

Step 4.
Air-check direct clutch piston for leak to outer area of clutch piston. Check center piston
seal for damage. Repair direct clutch (para. 28-10) if damaged.
