The 41TE underdrive, overdrive, low/reverse, and 2/4 clutch hydraulic circuits each contain an accumulator. An accumulator typically consists of a piston (2), seal rings (3) return spring(s) (1) and a cover or plug. The overdrive and underdrive accumulators are located within the transaxle case, and are retained by the valve body.

The 2/4 accumulator is located in the valve body (1) . It is retained by a cover and retaining screws.
OPERATION
The function of an accumulator is to cushion the application of a frictional clutch element. When pressurized fluid is applied to a clutch circuit, the application force is dampened by fluid collecting in the respective accumulator chamber against the piston and spring(s). The intended result is a smooth, firm clutch application
