Tools & Procedures
• EQUIPMENT: Damper Installation Tool
• Anti-seize Compound
• The Proper Key
• Whenever it’s necessary to remove a vibration damper, only a proper puller tool should be used.
• DO NOT use a hammer during installation.
• Honing or machining Fluidampr bore is not recommended. A diametrical press fit of .0005″ to .0015″ is recommended for proper damper function. (Aluminum Fluidampr p/n’s 630102, 630112, 630602, 660202, 720102, 720112, 740102, 730602 & 740112 require a diametrical press fit of .001″ to .0025″.) If a micrometer is available, you may want to measure the crank snout and the inner bore of Fluidampr to assure proper fit.

VS131 Setting/Locking Tool Kit includes the Camshaft Setting Tool to ‘lock’ the camshaft in its correct timing position, a Crankshaft Locking Pin and Injection Pump Locking Pin. Additionally the kit includes the essential Timing Adjustment Assembly required to adjust and fix pump timing/cam sprocket position during the engine timing procedure. The correct engine ‘timing’ position will need to be re-established whenever service work requiring cylinder head removal, camshaft/valve train adjustment, or major engine repair has been carried out.

For rear disc pad removal and installation, DO NOT disconnect brake hose from caliper (wire aside). Replace all pads on an axle if wear indicator on any pad contacts rotor or if pad is worn to within .03″ (.8 mm) of pad backing.
Removal (”A”, “B”, “C”, “K” & “U” Series)
1. Remove 2/3 of brake fluid from master cylinder reservoir. Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheel. Using “C” clamp, compress caliper piston until it bottoms out in its bore.

DISASSEMBLY STEPS:
1. Remove and retain the TCC solenoid.
2. Remove and discard the OEM TCC boost valve and sleeve, TCC apply valve, and spring.
REAMING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Remove all components from the bore. Discard the TCC boost assembly, TCC apply valve and TCC apply spring.
2. Clean the valve body bore thoroughly in a solvent tank.
3. Securely clamp the valve body horizontally to the bench, making sure not to clamp directly over the bore to be reamed.

Valve Body Inspection
1. If a line-to-lube hole has been drilled in the PR valve circuit, it should be plugged to reduce converter drainback.
2. Inspect the line pressure plug and sleeve. Leakage here will result in poor line pressure control.
3. Inspect the TV checkball separator plate seat. Leakage here may produce stacked shifts and/or no kickdown.

Disassembly Instructions
1. Remove the detent assembly and spring retainer bracket (see Figure 1).
2. Remove the original pressure regulator spring and valve.
3. Remove the end plate on the opposite side of the bore and remove the line pressure plug and sleeve, throttle pressure plug and the spring (see Figure 3).
4. Keep all components removed in steps 2 and 3 except for the pressure regulator valve, spring and the throttle pressure plug for reassembly.
5. Clean the bore.
