ISSUE:
A new low one-way clutch kit (F2DZ-7D171-A) is now available for service use. The 1992 AXODE transaxle forward clutch pack revisions have been
made and parts are not interchangeable with prior model parts.
ACTION:
If service is required, take the following points into consideration.
1.
The low one-way clutch outer race for 1992 has a larger outer diameter, Figure 1. This new larger outer diameter race requires the use of new style
forward clutch plates.
NOTE:
THE INNER DIAMETER OF THE LOW ONE-WAY CLUTCH OUTER RACE HAS NOT CHANGED.
2.
Clutch plates will remain available for current and past model transaxles.
3.
The old race (E6DZ-7D171-A) is no longer available.
4.
A new low one-way clutch kit (F2DZ-7D171-A) is available to service prior models. This kit includes the following five (5) components.
