The oil goes through passage (10) in manifold (6). The oil flows through passage (2). Passage (2) is a series of passages through the clutch housings.Some of the oil that flows through passage (2) flows through passage (11). The oil flows into oil chamber (10) at the front of the transmission.Most of the oil from oil chamber (1) flows to the No. one planetary shafts (18). No. one planetary shafts (18) have drilled passages which allow the oil to flow to the bearings. The oil flows around the shaft bearings. Oil flows out of the holes in the ends of shafts (18). Then, the oil flows to bearing (20). The remainder of the oil flows through holes in coupling (19) and ring gear (22). The flow through coupling (19) and ring gear (22) lubricate the discs and the plates of the No. 1 and No. two clutches.Some of the oil from passage (2) also flows through passage (12) to an area between the planetary housing and the torque converter housing. Oil in this area lubricates bearings (16) and (17). The oil also flows through passage (14) in the output shaft of the torque converter. This oil also flows through passage (13) in the transmission input shaft.Next, oil flows into the area between the input shaft and the output shaft. This oil lubricates bearings (23) and (33). Oil flows from the area between the input shaft and the output shaft through passage (24). From passage (24), the oil flows into oil chamber (25) and the oil lubricates bearings (3) and (4). The oil in chamber (25) also flows into No. 2 and No. three planetary shafts (21) and the oil also flows into planetary shafts (26) .No. 2 and No. three planetary shafts (21) have drilled passages in order to allow the oil to flow to the bearings. The oil flows around the shaft bearings. The oil is also used in order
