Refitting

Clean the carburettor and the inlet manifold
mating faces.
10 Refit the carburettor in the reverse order
of removal, ensuring that a new gasket is
fitted.
11 If they are perished or were damaged during
removal, renew the fuel and/or vacuum hoses.
12 Reconnect the automatic choke unit
hoses, and then check/top-up the cooling
system if required, as described in Chapter 1.
13 Finally, check the idle speed and fuel
mixture settings, and adjust if necessary as
described in Chapter 1.

24 Carburettor (Weber TLD) -

dismantling, cleaning/
inspection and reassembly

4

Proceed as described in Section 17 for the
TLDM carburettor, but refer to the appropriate
illustrations for the TLD type carburettor (see
illustrations)
. The following differences
should also be observed:

a)

When refitting the adjuster screw, make
the initial adjustment by screwing it fully
into position (without overtightening it),
then unscrewing it by three full turns.

b)

Refer to Section 20 to adjust the needle
valve and float.

c)

When the carburettor is reassembled and
refitted, check and adjust it as described
in Chapter 1.

25 Exhaust system - general

information and component
renewal

1

Warning: Inspection and repair of
exhaust system components
should be done only after enough
time has elapsed after driving the
vehicle to allow the system

components to cool completely. This
applies particularly to the catalytic
converter, which runs at very high
temperatures. Also, when working under
the vehicle, make sure it is securely
supported on axle stands.

The exhaust system is composed of an
exhaust manifold, the front downpipe and
catalytic converter (where fitted), and a main
section incorporating two silencers. The
service replacement exhaust system consists
of three sections: the front downpipe/catalytic
converter, the intermediate pipe and front
silencer, and the tailpipe and rear silencer.
The system is suspended throughout its entire
length by rubber mountings (see illustration).
If any of these parts are damaged or
deteriorated, excessive noise and vibration
will occur.
Conduct regular inspections of the exhaust
system, to keep it safe and quiet. Look for any
damaged or bent parts, open seams, holes,
loose connections, excessive corrosion, or
other defects which could allow exhaust
fumes to enter the vehicle. Deteriorated
exhaust system components should not be
repaired - they should be replaced with new
parts.
If the exhaust system components are
extremely corroded or rusted together, they
will probably have to be cut from the exhaust
system. The most convenient way of
accomplishing this is to have a quick-fit
exhaust repair specialist remove the corroded
sections. If, however, you want to save money
by doing it yourself (and you don’t have an
oxy/acetylene welding outfit with a cutting
torch), simply cut off the old components with
a hacksaw. If you have compressed air,
special pneumatic cutting chisels can also be
used. If you do decide to tackle the job at
home, be sure to wear eye protection, to
protect your eyes from metal chips, and work
gloves, to protect your hands. If the
production-fit system is still fitted, it must be
cut at the points shown (see illustration) for
the service-replacement system sections to
fit.
Here are some simple guidelines to apply
when repairing the exhaust system:
a)

Work from the back to the front when
removing exhaust system components.

b)

Apply penetrating fluid to the exhaust
system component fasteners, to make
them easier to remove.

c)

Use new gaskets, rubber mountings and
clamps when installing exhaust system
components.

d)

Apply anti-seize compound to the threads
of all exhaust system fasteners during
reassembly.

e)

Note that on some models, the downpipe
is secured to the manifold by two bolts,
with a coil spring, spring seat and self-
locking nut on each. On refitting, tighten
the nuts until they stop on the bolt
shoulders; the pressure of the springs will
then suffice to make a gastight joint. Do
not overtighten the nuts to cure a leak -
the bolts will shear. Renew the gasket and
the springs if a leak is found.

f)

Be sure to allow sufficient clearance
between newly-installed parts and all
points on the underbody, to avoid
overheating the floorpan, and possibly
damaging the interior carpet and
insulation. Pay particularly close attention
to the catalytic converter and its heat
shield.

Warning: The catalytic converter
operates at very high
temperatures, and takes a long
time to cool. Wait until it’s

completely cool before attempting to
remove the converter. Failure to do so
could result in serious burns.

4B•2 Fuel and exhaust systems – fuel-injected engines

1

General information and
precautions

This Chapter is concerned with those

features of the engine management system
that supply clean fuel and air to the engine,
meter it in the required proportions, and
dispose of the results. Since the emission
control sub-systems modify the functions of
both the fuel and exhaust sub-systems, all of
which are integral parts of the whole engine
management package, there are many cross-
references to Chapters 5 and 6. Information
on the electronic and emissions control
systems is given in Chapter 6.

The fuel system consists of a fuel tank

(mounted under the body, beneath the rear
seats), fuel hoses, an electric fuel pump
mounted in the fuel tank, and an electronic
fuel injection system. Further specific
information on the fuel injection systems is
contained in Sections 12 and 13.

The exhaust system consists of an exhaust

manifold, the front downpipe and catalytic
converter and, on production-fit systems, a
main section incorporating two silencers. The
service replacement exhaust system consists
of three sections: the front downpipe/catalytic
converter, the intermediate pipe and front
silencer, and the tailpipe and rear silencer.
The system is suspended throughout its entire
length by rubber mountings.

Extreme caution should be exercised when

dealing with either the fuel or exhaust
systems. Fuel is a primary element for
combustion. Be very careful! The exhaust
system is an area for exercising caution, as it
operates at very high temperatures. Serious
burns can result from even momentary
contact with any part of the exhaust system,
and the fire risk is ever-present. The catalytic
converter in particular runs at very high
temperatures - refer to the information in
Chapter 6.

Warning: Many of the procedures
in this Chapter require the
removal of fuel lines and
connections, which may result in

some fuel spillage. Petrol is extremely
flammable, so take extra precautions when
you work on any part of the fuel system.
Don’t smoke, or allow open flames or bare
light bulbs, in or near the work area. Don’t
work in a garage where a natural-gas
appliance (such as a water heater or
clothes dryer) with a pilot light is present. If
you spill any fuel on your skin, rinse it off
immediately with soap and water. When
you perform any kind of work on the fuel
system, wear safety glasses, and have a
Class B type fire extinguisher on hand.
Before carrying out any operation on the
fuel system, refer also to the precautions
given in “Safety first!” at the beginning of
this manual, and follow them implicitly.
Petrol is a highly-dangerous and volatile
liquid, and the precautions necessary when
handling it cannot be overstressed.

Fuel system 
depressurisation

1

Warning: The fuel system will
remain pressurised for long
periods of time after the engine is
switched off - this pressure must

be released before any part of the system
is disturbed. Petrol is extremely flammable
- refer to the precautions at the end of the
previous Section.

The fuel system referred to in this Chapter
is defined as the fuel tank and tank-mounted
fuel pump/fuel gauge sender unit, the fuel
filter, the fuel injectors and the pressure
regulator in the injector rail, and the metal
pipes and flexible hoses of the fuel lines
between these components. All these contain
fuel, which will be under pressure while the
engine is running and/or while the ignition is
switched on.
The pressure will remain for some time after
the ignition has been switched off, and must
be relieved before any of these components is
disturbed for servicing work.
The simplest method is simply to
disconnect the fuel pump’s electrical supply
while the engine is running - either by
removing the fuel pump fuse (No 5), or by
lifting the red button on the fuel cut-off switch
(see Section 11) - and to allow the engine to
idle until it dies through lack of fuel pressure.
Turn the engine over once or twice on the
