Delta 88 V6-3800 3.8L (1988)
FIGURE 2 - RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION POSITION
SERVICE ACTION:
Once the transaxle is installed in the car and before the right side drive axle is installed, insert sleeve portion of Axle Seal Protector into the axle seal
(Figure 2). Install with the "T-bar handle" in such a position so that it can be pulled out easily after the drive axle is installed. This will be between the 5
to 7 o'clock position, depending on the transaxle and carline. To remove the Axle Seal Protector after the drive axle is installed, pull in line with the
"T-bar handle". Once removed, ensure that the Axle Seal Protector is intact (no pieces left inside the transaxle). Dispose of the protector, it is not
reusable. Note: the axle seal should be inspected for nicks or cuts each time the drive axle is removed because the seal can be damaged during removal
as well as installation.
NOTICE:
The seal protector must be removed before the car is driven to prevent the protector from deteriorating inside the transaxle causing a leak
and requiring Drive Axle removal to correct.
