COOLER CLEANER

• ATF Cooler Cleaner GHTTTCF6H
• Magnetic Nonbypass Spin-on Filter GTHGNBP2

(Available through the Acura Tool and Equipment

Program 1-888-424-6857)

Before installing an overhauled or remanufactured
automatic transmission, you must thoroughly clean the
ATF cooler to prevent system contamination. Failure to
do so could cause a repeat automatic transmission
failure.

The cleaning procedure involves heated ATF-Z1
delivered under high pressure (100 psi). Check the
security of all hoses and connections. Always wear
safety glasses or a face shield, along with gloves and
protective clothing. If you get ATF in your eyes or on
your skin, rinse with water immediately.

• Improper use of the ATF cooler cleaner can result

in burns and other serious injuries.

• Always wear eye protection and protective

clothing, and follow this procedure.

1. Check the fluid in the cooler cleaner tank. (The fluid

level should be 4.5 inches from the top of the filler
neck.) Adjust the level if needed; do not overfill.
Use only ACURA ATF-Z1; do not use any additives.

2. Plug the cooler cleaner into a 110 V grounded

electrical outlet.

Make sure the outlet has no other appliances
(light fixtures, drop lights, extension cords)
plugged into it. Also, never plug the cooler
cleaner into an extension cord or drop light;
you could damage the unit.

3. Flip the HEAT toggle switch to ON; the green

indicator above the toggle switch comes on. Wait
1 hour for the cooler cleaner to reach its operating
temperature. (The cooler cleaner is ready to use
when the temperature gauge reads 140 to 150 °F.)

NOTE: If the red indicator above the HEAT toggle
switch comes on, the fluid level in the tank is too
low for the tank heater to work (see step 1 of this
procedure).

4. Select the appropriate pair of fittings, and attach

them to the radiator, to the hoses, or to the banjo
bolts for flow through the ATF cooler cleaner.

5. Connect the red hose to the cooler outlet line (the

line that normally goes to the external filter on the
transmission).

6. Connect the blue hose to the cooler inlet line.

7. Connect a shop air hose (regulated to 100 to 125

psi) to the air purge valve.

The quick-connect fitting has a one-way
check valve to keep ATF from entering your
shop’s air system. Do not remove or replace
the fitting. Attach the coupler provided with
the cooler cleaner to your shop air line if
your coupler is not compatible.

8. Flip the MOTOR toggle switch to ON; the green

indicator above the toggle switch comes on. Let the
pump run for 5 minutes. While the pump is running,
open and close the air purge valve periodically to
cause agitation and improve the cleaning process.
Always open the valve slowly. At the end of the
5-minutes cleaning period, leave the air purge
valve open.

NOTE: While the pump is running with the air
purge valve open, it is normal to see vapor coming
from the filler/breather tube vents.

9. With the air purge valve open, flip the MOTOR

toggle switch to OFF; the green indicator goes off.
Leave the air purge valve open for at least
15 seconds to purge the lines and hoses of residual
ATF, then close the valve.

10. Disconnect the red and blue hoses from the ATF

cooler. Now connect the red hose to the cooler inlet
line.

11. Now connect the blue hose to the cooler outlet line.

12. Flip the MOTOR toggle switch to ON, and let the

pump run for 5 minutes. While the pump is running,
open and close the air purge valve periodically.
Always open the valve slowly. At the end of the
5-minutes cleaning period, leave the air purge
valve open.

NOTE: While the pump is running with the air
purge valve open, it is normal to see vapor coming
from the filler/breather tube vents.

13. With the air purge valve open, flip the MOTOR

toggle switch to OFF. Leave the air purge valve
open for at least 15 seconds to purge the lines and
hoses of residual ATF, then close the valve.

14. Disconnect the red and blue hoses from the ATF

cooler lines.

15. Connect the red and blue hoses to each other.

16. Disconnect the shop air from the air purge valve.

Disconnect and stow the coupler if used.

17. Disconnect and stow the fittings from the ATF

cooler inlet and outlet lines.

18. Unplug the cooler cleaner from the 110 V outlet.

Follow these instructions to keep the ATF cooler cleaner
working properly:

• Replace the two magnetic nonbypass spin-on filters

once a year or when you notice a restriction in the
ATF flow.

• Check the level and condition of the fluid in the tank

before each use.

• Replace the ATF in the tank when it looks dark or dirty.
