Stator-To-Turbine Interference Check

  1. Place converter on bench, front side down. Install stator support to engage mating splines of stator support shaft.
  2. Install input shaft, engaging the splines with turbine hub. While holding stator shaft stationary, rotate turbine with input shaft.
  3. Turbine should rotate freely in both directions without interference or noise. Torque required to turn shaft should not exceed 84 INCH lbs. (9.5 N.m) If interference or noise exists, stator front thrust washer may be worn and the converter should be replaced.
