Poor acceleration; flares on starting off in D, D3, R, and M: stall speed high in R

Probable cause(s)

1. Shift cable broken or out of adjustment
2. 4th clutch defective

Notes

- Check for a loose shift cable at the shift lever and the transmission control shaft.
- Check the 4th clutch pressure in the D and R positions.
- Inspect the clutch piston, clutch piston check valve, and O-rings. Check the spring retainer and retainer seal for wear and damage. Inspect the clutch end-plate-to-top-disc clearance. If the clearance is out of tolerance, inspect the clutch discs and plates for wear and damage. If the discs are worn or damaged, replace the discs as a set. Inspect the clutch waved-plate height. If the height is out of tolerance, replace the waved-plate. If the discs and plates are OK, adjust the clearance with the clutch end plate.
