Line Pressure Test

CAUTION: Perform the line pressure test prior to performing the stall speed test. If the line pressure Is low at stall, do not perform the stall speed test or further transaxle damage will occur. Do not retain wide open throttle in any transaxle range for more than five seconds.

This test verifies that the line pressure is within specification.
1. Connect a pressure gauge to the line pressure tap.
2. Start the engine and check the line pressures.
