1991 Volvo 740 Turbo Automatic Transmission - FAQ We Go? 700 1991

You won't snap the starter bolts Their tight because they also hold the transmission to the engine. Clean the area spotless around the transmission pan before removing. Make sure when reattaching the fill tube. Place the starter bolts loose in the bracket to the starter. Tighten those bolts up after the Fill tube is fully inplace. Carefully wiggle it as you tighten the nut while pushing it into the flanged surface. When you get the tube to seat, back it off 1/2 turn, enough the pivot and tighten the starter bolts, then tighten back down the fill tube. Do Not over tighten this nut. Just seat it and snug it down. Too tight and the Big nut will damage the flared end. Clean the pan and add the gasket. Screw all the 10 mm bolt into the pan gasket just enough to hold them. This method will assure the gasket stays in place. Tighten them down evenly. The screen is held in place by several I think 8mm or 6mm bolts.Easy on these tightening, They will break if forced. I don't remember if they are all the same length, so keep an eye on their placement for the screen bolts so Careful when you drop down the spacer plate as more ATF fluid will come pouring out. Use a very small dot of loc-tite Blue on the screen bolts. Careful removing as there are two gaskets you cannot get unless it's a transmission rebuild kit. I've had my screen out several time when flushing out my 740 transmission. Previous owner never serviced the car so every time shifting started getting weird, I knew the screen was clogging. No problem now since all the funk has finally been flushed out. Mobile 1 was my final fill after several cleanings.
