Step 25: The Special Tool shown
in this step is not required. The
force of the kickdown servo
piston spring is enough to push
the cover out after it is tapped
with the butt of a hammer
handle, or it may be pulled out
using M5X0.8-25mm screws
threaded into the holes in the
cover.

kickdown servo cover into place
and hold it while the snap ring is
being installed.
