CAUTION: Because the upper and lower road spring abutments are the chassis
and lower link respectively, i t is ESSENTIAL that spring compressors are used
before disconnecting either end of the damper, or the lower link from the chassis.
Failure to do so could result i n personal injury.
A l l suspension rubber bush pivots, must be tightened only at ride height (1 50 and
175 mm at front and rear of chassis centre box section).
On the anti-roll bar to lower link bush fixing, note that a sp,ecial chamfered
washer i s fitted between the anti-roll bar and the lower link front bush, i n
order to provide for fillet clearance. Ensure this washer i s fitted the correct

The front suspension i s fully independent with upper and lower wishbones
together with concentric damper/spring assemblies and a n anti-roll bar.
A stub axle, integral with the non-handed vertical link (hub carrier)
carries each front hub on two taper roller bearings, adjustable for endfloat.
CC. 1 - GEOMETRY
Under normal service conditions, i t should only be necessary to check the front
wheel alignment. A f u l l geometry check i s only necessary following front
suspension repair or i f excessive tyre wear i s evident, or steering difficulties
experienced.
Before measuring suspension geometry set car to ride height o f 170mm below

Caution i n a l l cases ensure that the top wishbone pivot stud and ball joint bolts
have sufficient engagement through their ~ ~ l nuts. o c I f necessary, replace the pivot
bolt front Nyloc and locknut with two iocknuts (i.e. one Nyloc a t rear and two
locknuts a t front). A 5mm longer ball joint outer bolt (M8 x 65) i s available part
no. A OEW2044.
Caution The road spring lower platform is integral with the damper lower body, while ,
the spring top pla tform/damper abutment i s bolted to the chassis. Under no c i r c u m tances
therefore may the damper top stem nuts be removed unless the spring/damper assembly
i s removed from the vehicle and the spring compressed i n an hydraulic press or similar.
Spring/damper removal : These two components must be removed from the vehicle as an
a assembly. Release the damper to lower wishbone fixing, and the four nuts securing the
spring top platform to the chassis, and remove assembly to bench.
Note that early '85 MY cars used parall el coil springs, which were superceded by conical
springs with the greater diameter fitted lowerma t. The dianieter of the spring seat on the
damper body i s correspondingly increased for use with conical springs. If replacing a
spring or a damper o f the earlier 'parallel spring' type, then the later 'conical spring' type
components should be fitted us an assembly.
The anti-roll bar fixing into the lower wishbone i s by push f i t only. Use rubber grease
on assembly. If replacing the lower wishbone anti-roll bar bush, ensure that the larger
portion (in relation to its location groove) i s fitted towards the front.

The engine which is inclined at 45' is a die-cast all alloy 4 cylinder, with
wet cylinder liners and twin overhead camshaft in a cross flow cylinder head.
Pent roof combustion chambers are used with 4 valves (two inlet and two exhaust)
having seprate ports, per cylinder. The valves have replacebble guides arid seat inserts
and are at an inclusive angle of 38'. They are operated by the camshafts bcting directly
on the cam followers (tappets), the camshafts being driven at half engine speed by a
toothed belt. The camshafts end float i s taken by a thrust washer at the rear end of each
shaft. The toothed driving belt also drives the auxiliary shaft, this i n turn driving the
oil pump and ignition distributor.
The connecting rods of 'I' section forgings have steel backed bronze l i t t l e end
bushes and steel-backed leaded bronze lined big-end bearings, the big-end bearing
caps being located by dowels and retained by bolts. Solid skirt aluminium alloy pistons
with two compression and one oil control ring, situated above the gudgeon pin, are used.
The gudgeon pins are retained i n position by circlips installed i n groovesat each end of
the gudgeon pin bore.

EA.1 , - LUBRICATION
General
The lubrication system i s of the forced feed type, the o i l being circulated by a
mechanically driven o i l pump. The pump, of the eccentric bi-rotor type which
incorporates a non-ad justable plunger type relief valve, i s driven by an auxiliary
shaft thls being contained i n the auxiliary housing bolted to the right-hand side of
the cylinder block.
Oil i s drawn from the sump up a pick-up pipe and into the pump. When the relief
valve opens, o i l i s passed back into the inlet side of pump. From the pump the
pressurised o i l flows through the o i l cooler and full-flow filter to the o i l gallery.
The o i l gallery passes along the right-hand side of theengine, from where o i l i s
taken to feed the crankshaft main bearings and through drillings i n the webs of the
crankshaft, to the big-end bearings. The o i l gallery also takes o i l forward to the
auxiliary shaft, then subsequently to the camshaft bearings and valve gear. Lubrication
of the l i t t l e end bushes, the gudgeon pins and the non-thrust sides of the cylinder
linen i s by o i l mist.
An oil gallery cover opposite fourth main bearing provides take offs for the
oil pressure gauge, turbocharger oil feed and low temperature switch (H.C. I.)
Page 4 SECTION EA
On dry sump Turbo Esprit models a sepemte belt driven o i l pump assembly i s used, fixed
tb the right hand side of the main bearing panel.
The assembly consists of two scavenge pump and a pressure pump a l l mounted on a
common axis and supported by the scavenge manifold.
The two scavenge pump draw o i l out from the sump via the scavenge manifold, one pump
drawing from ducts 1 and 3, the other from duetr 2 and 4. The oil/air mixture i s pumped
through the o i l cooler and into the o i l tank oil/air seperator. The pressure pump draws
o i l from the tank and feeds i t via a cylinder block passage into the auxiliary housing.
A pressure relief valve i s incorporated into the scavenge manifold and bleeds o i l back
into the inlet side of the pump on opening.
The auxiliary housing passageways are modified to direct the o i l into the o i l filter, (by-
passing the pump housing) and thehce into the o i l gallery.
All Esprit models (except early Series 1) use a 'cross drilled' crankshaft to enable plain
lower main bearing shells to be fitted and increase load capacity.
Oil Level
NOT Dry Sump Turbo: Before checking o i l level, allow a full five minutes for o i l to
returh to sump. The correct o i l level i s to the upper mark on the dipstick with the car
on a level surface. Add o i l i f netesiary through the filler neck on the inlet camshaft
cover. Do NOT overfill. Replace filler ~ a securely.
p
The engine o i l should be changed and a new filter fitted at the recommended service
intervals. Sump capacity is listed i n TECHNICAL DATA, and should be drained when
the o i l i s warm and impurities are held i n suspension.
Dry Sump Turbo: Check the o i l level i n the tank at the right hand side of the engine
bay WITHIN TWO MINUTES of switchingoff. Oil w i l l drain back from the tank into

3. Fit spring seat, valve springs, spring retainer. Place the valve spring
compressor i n position and compress the valve springs sufficiently to f i t
inlet and exhaust ports, piston crowns and valve heads. A ring of carbon
should be left around the periphery of each piston crown. The TOP of the
cylinder liners should NOT be touched.
Clean each valve thoroughly and carefully examine for pitting. Valves i n a
pitted condition should be refaced with a suitable grinder or new valves should
be fitted. If the valve seats show any signs of pitting, or uneveness, they shduld
be trued by the use of service cutting tools. When using a cutting tool take care
to remove only as much metal as i s necessary to ensure a true surface. The removal
of too much metal could cause difficulty i n achieving the required valve
clearance.
When grinding a valve onto its seating the valve should be smeared lightly
with 'fine' or 'medium' carborundum paste and then lapped i n with a suction
type grinder after oiling the valve stem. Avoid the use of excessive quantities
of grinding paste and ENSURE that i t remains i n the region of the valve seating
only. A light coil spring placed under the head of the valve w i l l assist
considerably i n the process of grinding. The valve should be ground to its
seat with a semi-rotary motion and occasionally allowed to rise by the pressure of
the light coil spring. This action assists i n speeding the grinding operation until
a dull, even, matt finish, free from any blemishes i s achieved on the valve seat
and valve face. On completion, the valve seats, guides and ports, should be
cleaned with petrol then blown dry and clean with compressed air. The valves
should be washed i n petrol and a l l traces of grinding paste removed. Ensure that

Cross-dril led crankshafts
The 'standard' or non cross drilled crankshaft as fitted to all front engined cars prio;
to engine no. 23749 (March 1987) has drillings from main bearings 1,2,4 & 5 through
to crankpins 1,2,3 & 4 to provide big end lubrication. Both upper and lower shells
for these main bearings are provided with a hole to admit oil from a drilling i n the
block, and a groove to provide an oil channel around which oil may flow to the big
end feed drilling i n the journal .
l h e 'cross-drilled' crankshaft is'similar i n the above respect, but diffen as follows:
I n order to permit the use of plain lower main bearing shells with their increased
load bearing area, crank journals 1,2,4 & 5 are also 'cross-drilled' diametrically
across from the point where the big end feed drilling emerges. One end of this cioss
drilling i s therefore always i n communication with the oil supply channel i n the
grooved upper main bearing shell, maintaining big end lubrication throughout 360'
crankshaft rotation.
This 'cross-drilled' crankshaft i s fitted to a l l Esprit variants from engine no. 13277
(1976), and to Excel models from engine no. 23749 (1987). It i s MOST IMPORTANT
to refer to the table i n section TDA (N/A) or TDB (Turbo) for the correct main
bearing shell configuration.
Remove the main bearing shells, refit the main bearing panel, and measure the
main bearing bore diameter.

The a i r pump draws a i r from a filter located on the right hand rear wheel arch and supplies
it to the divertor valve. The divertor valve i s spring loaded so as to supply a i r to the
exhaust ports via a non-return valve, and air injection manifold.

1 . Check for air leaks at the carburettor to manifold joint,
The spacer plates and '0' rings used at this joint act as insulators to
absorb vibration and prevent frothing o f fuel in the float chambers.
It i s essential that the carburettor mountings are not overtightened,
as the '0' rings may be displaced with a resultant a i r leak.

Release the filter cover from the engine bay wall, leave the hoses
attached and pull open. Remove the cleaner element and inspect

carburettor cold start levers.
With the choke control i n the 'off' position both carb levers should contact
their closed 'stops' on the carburettor tops. With the choke control operated
fully, check that both levers are against their fully open stops. Adjust the
choke cable at the carburettor, tmd linkage if necessary.

- ----- Cam Timing
1. Turn the engine to No. 1 cylinder TDC with the camshaft toothed pulley timing
marks facing EACH OTHER innermost.
Note: The engine may beset at TDC by reference to the timing marks on the
flywheel, and pointer located at the top of the clutch housing, as shown.
2. Check that the pulley dots (red on inlet, green on exhaust) are aligned with a
line through the camshaft pulley centres. These dots may be viewed from either
the front side (using a mirror) or the rear side.
If the engine i s running, the rear side of the pulleys may be viewed with a
stroboscope set a t TDC or No. 1 cylinder. .
Note: I t i s most important that each camshaft toothed pulley isfitted the correct
way round, i.e. 'IN' facing forward on inlet camshaft and 'EX' facing forward
on exhaust camshaft. Marks on the reverse side of the pulley w i l l be reversed.

If switch adjustment i s carried out, open throttle to 2500 rpm and then return
throttle to idle position. Check that when engine speed i s above 1 800 rpm, the
micro-switch i s deactivated allowing fuel pressure to increase to 4.0 -5.0 p.s .i .
Repeat this test and check that pressure differences are maintained. Adjust switch
position i f necessary but always ensure that idle pressure requirements are met.
If switch contact i s made at idle, but fuel pressure remains above 3.5 p.s .ischeck
fuel pressure regulator solenoid pipework and wiring for leakage or disconnection.
If no fault i s found, replace fuel pressure regulator solenoid valve.
If pressures are found to be correct, remove caiburettor tops and check fuel inlet

Page 4 SECTION FB
The tubular linkage transmits fore-aft movement of the gear 1ever into radial movement
of the gearbox cross shaft. Crossgate movement o f the gearlever i s translated into
axial cross shaft motion by a bowden cable connected between a bellcrank on the
gearshift assembly and a bellcrank on the gearbox casing.
To Remove
Remove the centre tunnel top assembly.
Unscrew the sixscrews securing the cover plate covering the recess i n the
chassis, which contains the gearshift assembly.
Remove the spirol pin connecting the bowden cable to the cross-gate lever
clevis on the gear shift lever assembly.
Unscrew the four bolts holding down thegearshift lever assembly to the
chassis .
a
Lift the assembly sufficiently to enable the front linkage tube to be disconnected
from the lever assembly .
Release the front tube from therelay lever, and withdraw tube from chassis.
Release rear tube from relay lever and cross shaft lever.
Remove the spring clip and clevis pin, securing the crossgate cable extension
to the crossgate bellcrank lever. Remove the nut and washer securing the
crossgate cable to the bell housing.
To the gear lever endof the cable, attach a ~ i r e ' ~ u 1

Remove the nut and washer securing the cable i n the gearshift lever recess, and
withdraw cab1e .
To Replace
Reverse the removal procedure, noting the following points:
1 . When fitting the crossgate cable at its front end into the chassis abutment, ensure
that the two cable nuts with shakeproof washers, are locked i n a position such
that the minimum amount ofouter cable protrudes forwards o f the front lock nut.
Otherwise, contact with the gearlever bellcmnk lever may b a dk selection o f
fifth and reverse gears.
2. O n can with a 0.86:l ratio relay lever, ensure that the longest a n of the lever
i s *positioneduppermost. Later cars have a 1:1 relay lever.
Key to Gearchange Linkage Drawing
Adjustment
relay lever on the RH engine mounting leg, The lever should be vertical, or leaning
very slightly backwards a t the top. If necessary, disconnect the rear tube from the , . ,
relay lever, and adjust length to suit. Tighten the locknut after adjustment, but before
reconnecting to relay lever, check that full travel of the gear lever both fore and aft
provides movement at the relay lever exceeding that required by the rear tube for
c'omplete selection of gears.
0 The crossgate cable, outer casing should be fitted at its rear end into the clutch housing
abutment with the adiustment at its mid position. Tighten the locknuts.
With the transmission i n neutral and the cable connected, check the position of the gear
lever. The lever should be vertical orleaning very slightly to the right. If necessary,
disconnect the cable extension rod from the cross shaft bellcrank lever and after slackening
the locknut, screw the extension rod on or off the cable to achieve t h correct setting.
Tighten locknut.
Before finally connecting extension rod to the bzllcrank lever, check that full travel of
the gear lever side to side provides movement of the extension rod exceeding that required
by the bellcrank for full axial cross shaft movement.
0 NOTE: On cars up to 1983 fitted with a 240mm crossgatecable extension rod, a special
stiffening locknut (A082F4066F) may be fitted inplace of the plain nut to
increase stiffness o f the crossgate cable.
Later cars, and Federal cars have a shorter crossgate cable and 442 mm
extension rod.

1. In order to maintain the required bump steer characteristic, it is important
to ensure that the steering rack is centralised in the straight ahead
position, i.e. both track rods are the same length. Measure the amount of
visible thread at each track rod, and if necessary equalise by adjusting an
equal and opposite amount at each side.
2. Slide the steering wheel onto the column splines in an approximate straight
ahead position. Rotate the wheel to full left hand lock and then to right
hand lock, and check that the two extreme steering wheel positions are the
mirror image of each other. If necessary, reposition the wheel on the column
until this is achieved. Fit and tighten the steering wheel nut as above.
3. Road test the car to check steering wheel alignment. It should not be
necessary to reposition the wheel by more than one spline to achieve
alignment to within 5". Complete alignment is achieved by adjustment at the
track rod ends, an equal and opposite amount at each side to maintain the

GENERAL DESCRlPTl ON
The handbrake lever connects via individual cables to each rear brake caliper,
and mechanically operates their hydraulic pistons. Each piston incorporates a
self adjusting mechanism which operates on footbrake application to compensate
for brake pad wear.
1 . After raising the front of the vehicle, remove the front wheels:
WARNING: When both front w'heels are raised, do NOT move the road wheels
quickly from lock to lock, as this w i l l cause hydraulic pressure to
build up within the steering gear, which may cause the rubber
bellows to bunt or blow off.
2. Remove any accumulated road f i l t h from the area of the brake pad.
3. Pull out the pad retaining pin clips (A), withdraw the retaining pins
(B) and remove the brake pads with the shims (C). Note the position
of the dust shield (D) fitted over the brake pads .
SECTION J B Page 3
4. Toenablethenewpdstobefitted,pushthepistonsinthecalip4n
back into the bores. This action w i l l cause hydraulic fluid to be
returned to the master cylinder, which i f i t has recently been topped-
up, m y overflow. To avoid this, examine the fluid level a n d i f
necessary, remove a quantity o f fluid BEFORE pushing the pistons back
into the bores. D O NOT USE REMOVED FLUID FOR TOPPING-UP
PURPOSES.
5. F i t the new brake pads with the shim taking care that both are fitted
correctly. The shim are marked with an arrow which MUST point i n
the direction of forward rotation of the wheel. Replace the dust shield,
refit the retaining pins and the locking clips.
6. Operate the brake pedal several times to bring the pads into correct
operating position. Check that the pads are free to move and that the
retaining pins are not fouling the pads.
7. Replace the road wheels, lower the vehicle to the ground, check the
brake, fluid and top up if necessary. Tighten the wheel nuts to the
specified torque loading .
CAUTION: The brakes w i l l not work a t f u l l efficiency until the new brake pads
have bedded-in. If, initially, the brakes are used too heavily, the surface of
the pads w i l l burn and irregular braking result. Use the brakes gently for the first
few miles and gradually build up brake effort.
1. Remove the two self locking screws securing the caliper body to the two
guide pins, whilst holding the guide pins stationary with a spanner to
prevent damage to their dust covers.
2. Remove the caliper body a d support to avoid straining the flexible hose.
Remove the pads and clean the pad abutment areas taking care not to
damage the guide pin or pis ton dust coven.
. 3. Before fitting new pads, the piston must be pushed back into the
caliper and the handbrake auto-adjust mechanism reset. Fit a
0
screwdriver against the piston and turn the piston 45 to disengage
the ad jvster ratchet. Press back the piston (take care that the fluid
reservoir does not overflow), and then turn the piston back 450 to
re-engage the ratchet.
Page 4 SECTION JB
4. Fit new pads and damper spring into the caliper bracket, and r e f i t
the caliper body, alighing the stot i n the piston with the lug on the
brake pad backplate.
5. F i t new self locking bolts to secure the caliper body to the guide
pins. F i t the top bolt .first, then compress the p d damper spring
and f i t the lower bolt. Torque tighten both bolts to 3.2 - 3.6
kgf.m. (23-26 Ibf.ft.).
6. Operate the footbrake several times to bring the pads to their correct
working position and to take up the handbrake adjustment.
JB. 3 - HANDBRAKE
Access to the handbrake cable adjusters i s made via an aperture i n the rear
end of the s i l l trim panel, covered by carpet.
The cylindkr end covers on the brake caliper asselnblies, contain a handbrake
automatic adjustiment mechanirm to accommodate brake pad wear. Movement
of the caliper lever causes a cam to rotate and exert a force via a pushrod and
adjuster mechanism, on the caliper piston and brak
A
SECTION JB Page 5
I n order to press the piston back into its bore (necessary when fitting new brake
pads) or to eject the piston from the cylinder (during caliper overhaul), the ratchet
mechanism must be disengaged. To do this, rotate the pis ton 45O i n either direction.
Turn back to re-engage the ratchet, and align piston slot with the lug on the brake
pad backpla te .
JB. 4 - FRONT BRAKE CALIPER OVERHAUL
Note: N o attempt should be made to remove the bolts and separate the two halves
of the caliper body.
1. Disconnect the flexible hose from the caliper and remove caliper from
the vertical link. Drain brake fluid from the caliper.
2. Remove the brake pads as i n JB . I and pull o f f the piston dust covers.
3. Using rag to protect from brake fluid spray, and keeping fingers well
clear, use compressed air to eject the pistons from their cylinden.
4. Remove the sealing rings from the cylinders taking care not to damage
the bores or grooves.
5. Remove the sealing ring from the cylinder, and clear a l l parts with
fresh brake fluid. . Examine cylinder bores and pis tons for any signs of
scoring, scuffing or corrosion and replace pistons or caliper i f i n any
doubt.
6. Lubricate a new piston seal with clean brake f l u i d and fit into its
groove i n the cylinder wall .
7. Lubricate t h e piston, and f i t the dust cover onto the piston as shown.
Offer the piston and dust cover assembly to the cylinder with the
piston orientuted to clear the handbrake auto adjustment (see JB. 2).
Locate the l i p of the dust cover into the cylinder groove and carefully
push the piston fully home through the dust cover. Emure the dust
cover i s not trapped between the piston and the bore and that the inner
l i p of the dust cover i s located i n the pis tori groove.

G ENEWL DESCRIPTION
The braking system comprises a Bendix 'Master Vac' servo unit and tandem master
cylinder operating single piston sliding calipers on each wheel with ventilated
front and solid rear discs. The seperate front/rear hydraulic circuits share a brake
fluid reservoir which incorporates a 'Nivocode' low fluid level warning switch.
This circuit, which operates a fascia tell-tale lamp, may be checked by
depressing the test button on the reservoir cap.
The handbrake lever connects via individual cables to each rear brake caliper,
and mechanically operates their hydraulic pistons via a self adjusting mechanism.
Pad thickness may be checked using the inspection hole i n the caliper.
To remove pads
Remove the bolt from the lower of the two caliper sliding pins, and swing
.
up the caliper to allow access to the pads The caliper may be supported
i n the raised position by inserting a bolt into the torque plate hole.
Slide out both brake pads. Referring to the illustration remove each anti-
rattle ~ ~ r i n g / ~ u iplate/support
de plate ONE AT A TIME, and replace with
the new item supplied with the new pad set.
Note that the inner pad guide plate forms a solid abutment and i s fitted to
the top (or thrust) end of the caliper, whilst the inner pad anti-rattle spring
is fitted to the lower end.
Fit the anti-squeal shim to the outer pad and insert into the caliper, ensuring
that the anti-rattle spring tongues are tucked into the brake pad backplate
slots.
Lower the caliper cylinder, and secure with the lower sliding pin bolt,
torque tightening to 1 .6- . -
2.4 kgf m. (12 17 lbf ft) . .
NOTE: If new pads are fitted i t w i l l be necessary to push the piston
back Into the caliper bore. This action w i l l return fluid to the master
cylinder, which may, i f i t has been topped up, overflow. Remove fluid
from the master cylinder reservoir beforehand i f necessary.
Press the brake pedal several times to bring the pads to their correct running
position.

8. Operate the footbrake several times to bring the pads to their correct
working position and to take up the handbrake adjustment.
JC 3. - HANDBRAKE ADJUSTMENT
It i s a feature o f the Bendix handbrake mechanism that a large amount o f handbrake
lever travel i s required i n order for the handbrake to work efficiently and for the
automatic adjustment to function. For this reason, a 'fold down' type handbrake
lever i s used to ease driver entry/exit.
The handbrake i s applied by pulling the lever upwards i n the usual manner. After
application, the lever may be pushed down again (WITHOUT pressing release button
i n end o f handgrip) whits t the fascia t e l l tale lamp warns of handbmke application.
To release the handbrake, pull lever up, press release button and HOLDING BUTTON
PRESSED IN, lower lever fully.
The handbrake lever i s connected via a short link to a multiplier lever to increase
leverage and reduce operator effort. The multiplier lever connects to an actuating
link which uses a compensator lever to balance the force applied to each handbmke
cable.
The Bendix calipers incorporate a screw thread self adjusting mechanism within their
hydraulic cylinders, which keeps the mechanical handbrake linkage adjusted with each
.
application o f the footbmke For this sys tern to function correctly, i t i s essential that
each caliper handbmke lever i s allowed to return fully, and i s not prevented from
doing so by maladjustment of the handbrake cable.
To check that this condition i s achieved, with the handbmke 'off', measure the distance
between the cable abutment and caliper lever as shown.
Page 6 SECTION JC
After verifying this dimension, any slack i n the cables may be adjusted out a t
their forward abutment inside the driver's s i l l trim panel. For access, slide the
driver's seat fully forward and lift the rear end of the s i l l carpet to expose the
trim p n e l aperture. After adjustment, re-check the caliper lever 'off' dimension
as above.
3. Remove the top pin boot from the caliper using a small chisel
as shown.
4. Remove the spring ring and boot from the piston bore and use
compressed air to eject the piston from the cylinder.
8. Fit the top slide pin boot by using a 21mm socket as shown.
2. Remove the locking clips, slide out the caliper retaining plates, and
remove caliper to bench.
4. Using a rag to protect against brake fluid spray, and keeping fingers
well clear, use compressed air to eject the piston from the cylinder.
Remove seal from groove i n cylinder.
5. Clean the groove, cylinder bore and piston with methylated spirit and
dry with compressed air. lmpect the groove, bore and piston surface
for any signs ofscratching or pitting. I f any such signs are apparent,
a replacement cylinder assembly should be fitted.
6. Fit a new seal into the cylinder groove. Lubricate the piston and bore
with brake fluid and press the piston into the cylinder.
-7. Smear the exposed part of the piston with the special Lockheed grease
supplied i n the seal kit, and f i t a new dust boot.
8. Screw the piston fully i n along the handbrake adjuster mechanism, and
then position with the piston slot parallel with the two support-wings
and the groove toward the bleed nipple side. (See brake pad replacement
. .
procedure JC 1)
d) With the tool holding the wings of the carrier apart, slide the new
cylinder into the carrier bracket whilst depressing the locking pawl
Note Check that the cylinder i s fitted the correct way up.
e) Ensure that the pawl locks into the carrier bracket locating hole
and remove the spreader tool.

The float chamber i s vented to atmosphere (via the airbox) through the hole (4)
i n the chamber (3).
Starting
With the choke valve (8) partially closed, when a leaner mixture i s required,
mixfure flows into the vafve chamber (9) through one of the two outlet ports (7),
further mixing with air from the two channels (5),which, i n this condition,
are partially closed.
With the choke valve (8) closed, communication between the main barrels and the
starting circuit is cut off as i s also communication between the two barrels by
meats of the dividing bushing (19).
Idling
Fuel coming from the float chamber, metered by the idle jets (21), mixes with the
air from the well (23) through channels (22); the mixture thus formed, through
channels (24) arrives to the adjustment screw (27) and then, metered, flows into
the main barrels (11) downstream the throttle valve (12).
Replacing the plug (26) with an adaptor connected to a suitable manometer i t
is possible to check, through channel (28) the pressure existing i n the barrels
(11) with the throttle valve (12) i n idling position and equalize the air flow
adjusting the bypass screw (25) which controls the hole (29).

Acceleration
On opening of throttle valves (12), lever (39) attached to spindle (38), by

Full Throttle
With the throttle valves (12) opened, fuel from the float chamber (461metered
by the jets (47),enters the well (48) and mixes with air metered by the air

connected by a large bore balance pipe. A single sender u n i t for the fuel gauge
i s fitted into the top o f the RH tank.
Fuel i s fed from the RH tank through a n integral strainer to the fuel pumps and

T h e fuel feed system comprises the fuel pumps, fuel accumulator, and fuel filter. All
fhese components are fitted a t the RH front underside o f the engine bay.
Fuel Pumps Two fuel pumps, corrnected i n series, draw fuel from the RH petrol
tank and supply i t via the fuel accumulator and filter to the fuel distributor.
Both pumps are fitted withmon-return valves i n their outlet connections,
1. Fuel Intake
3. Roller-Cell Pump
5. Non-Return Valve
6. Fuel Outlet
Page 6 SECTION LD
The pump are permanent magnet electric motor roller-cell type, wherein the fuel
flows past the motor itself to a roller cell pump chamber. A motor driven disc mounted
eccentrically i n this chamber, uses rollers contained i n slots around its circumference and
thrown out by centrifugal force against the wall of the eccentric chamber, to transfer
fuel from the motor side of the chamber into the fuel feed pipeline.
The lack of an ignitable air/fuel mixture i n the pump prevents any explosion. The pump
operate whilst the engine i s cranking or running, but do not opemte i n the stalled engine
condition. The combined output bf both pumps i s more than the maximum requirement 6f
the engine, excess fuel being returned to the ta& via the prlmary piessure regulator. I n
order to protect the engine from damage if one pump fails, the engine overspeed/fuel
pump failure module senses the failure and limits maximum engine speed to approx. 2,800
rpm by cutting out the remaining pump when this speed i s reached.
The fuel pumps are also cut out i f the Overboost Switch senses too great a boost
pressure a t the inlet manifold cold start air m i l (i.e. exhaust wastegote failure).
Fuel Accumulator The fuel accumulator i s fitted between the fuel pump and fuel
filter and is designed to maintain fuel pressure i n the system after the engine has
been switched off i n order to aid re-&ting and .

The accum"lator also serves to deaden
any noise arising from pulsations i n the
fuel line. The accumulator'consists' of
a fuel storage chamber and spring

When the fuel pump are running, the pressure of fuel pshes the diaphragm back against

When the pumps are switched off, the non-return valve fitted i n the outlet of the second
pump, prevents fuel returning to the tank, through the pump, and the fuel distributor
primary pressure regulator shuts off the fuel return pipeline.
The accurnulator spring then maintains a rest pressure i n the system for sufficient time
to aid hot re-siurt .
Fuel F i l t e r The fuel filter i s fitted between the fuel accumulator and fuel distributor.
Due to the extremely close tolerances of the injection equipment, a special fine filter
i s fitted to protect the system from impurities i n the fuel.
The filter consists of a sealed cannister containing a paper f i l t e r element backed up by
a l i n t o r fluff filter, and a restraining strainer.

LD. 4. - MIXTURE CONTROL UNIT
The Mixture control unit is the heart of the fuel injection system, and comprises an
a i r ffow sensor and fuel distributor.
The a i r flow sensor is fitted between the air filter and turbocharger, and senses the
amount of a i r b e l q drawn into the engine. This measurement i s used to move a control
vafve i n the fuel distributor which regulates fuel delivery to the injectors.
Page 8 SECTION L D
Air Flow Sensor The air flow sensor consists of a sensor plate mounted on a counterbalanced
fever, operating the fuel distributor control valve.
The sensor plate i s positioned i n an air funnel and operates on the suspended body
principle such that the greater the quantity of air dmwn i n by the engine, the greater
the sensor plate movement. The funnel i s specially shaped to provide the necessary
sensor plate movement and fuel delivery characteristics.
Sensor Plate

//
To Engine 4-. Setting Screw
I n order to prevent damage to the sensor i n case of pressure shocks i n the intake system
(backfiring) etc .) provision i s made for the sensor to swing upward and open a relief
cross-section i n the funnel before being restrained by a buffer. The rest position of
the sensor i s controlled by a preset spring pin.
The screw setting the fuel control valve operating arm i s preset and requires no adjustment
under normal operating conditions.
When the engine i s stopped, the fuel pump are switched off and the pressure
drop below injector opening pressure. The primary pressure regulator then
seats fully under the action of its spring, and prevents further pressure
reduction i n the primary system.
Fuel Intake
The control valve slides inside a barrel into which i s fed fuel at primary
pressure. The fuel then flows through 4 metering slits to the distributor
differential valves and then to the fuel injecton. As the air flow sensor i s
deflected further by an increasing airflow, so the control valve i s raised i n
its barrel, progressively

Page 7 0 SECTION LD
Control Pressure In order to damp any tendency o f the control valve and air flow
sensor to osillate, and to provide a means whereby the movement o f the control valve
relative to the airflow may be varied to suit different operation conditions, a 'control
pressure' is arranged to act on the top o f the control valve and oppose the force applied
to i t b y the airflow sensor.
A small bore take off from the primary pressure supply directs fuel a t a reduced pressure
into the top of the fuel control valve cylinder. This 'control pressure' i s regulated by
the warm up regulator (see later) which reduces the control pressure when the engine
i s cold. This reduced force above the control valve, at lows the airflow sensor and control
valve to move a greater distance for a given airflow, and exposea greater proportion o f
the metering slits. More fuel then flows to the injectors to achieve a richer cold running
mixture.
The warm up regulator achieves this control pressure regulation by allowing a proportion
o f the fuel to return to the tank, but i n order to maintain control pressure after engine
switch off, and to aid re-start, the return line from the warm up regulator i s fitted with
a shut off valve which closes when the engine is stopped.

Distributor Differential Valves One distributor differential valve for each engine
cylinder i s incorporated i n the fuel distributor to maintain a constant pressure drop
across the metering slits regardless of their opening. This i s necessary i n order to
ensure that the fuel flow to the injecton i s dependant only on the length of metering
slit exposed, and also i s not affected by any variation i n primary pressure.
The valves are mounted i n 4 cavities inside the fuel distributor. Each cavity i s divided
into upper and lower chambers by a steel diaphragm. A l l the lower chambers are
interconnected by a ring main and are supplied with fuel at primary pressure from the
pumps. The upper chamben are isolated from each other and each i s connected individually
to one of the metering slits. Each diaphragm i s spring loaded downwards away from a flat
seat valve leading to one of the fuel iniecton .

As the metering slit i s opened, and the upper chamber pressure tends to increase, the
diaphragm is pushed downwards increasing the flat seat valve opening to the injector
line such that the upper chamber pressure remains a t 0.1 bar below that o f the lower
chamber, This pressure differential i s set by the helical spring. Hence, during
operation, the diaphragm is held i n equilibrium by the force of the primary fuel pressure
on the underside, and by the upper chamber press&e plus the spring-pressu.re on the

Page 12 SECTION LD
The injectors have no metering function but open at a specified pressure and inject the
fuel allocated to them by the fuel distributor.
The injector nozzles are fitted with a valve needle which vibrates at high frequency
as the fuel flow pressure lifts the valve on and off i t s seat, producing a finely atomised
spray
Fuel atomisa tion i s further aided, especially at low engine speeds, by an air stream
flowing around the injector This air stream i s supplied via a passageway running across
the top of the inlet manifold, and a hose connecting with the intake plenum.
When the engine inlet valves are closed, the air/fuel vapour cloud formed, i s stored i n
the intake port,
. . to be drawn into the cylinder when the inlet valves open again.
When the engine is stopped, the fuel pressure drops below that required to open the
f njector valves, so shutting the valves and preventing fuel dripping into the ports.

LD. 6 - MIXTURE ADAPTATION
The system so far described provides a fuel/ air mixture suitable for normal running.
Various supplementary devices are required i n order to adapt the mixture strength
.
for differing climatic, transient and emissions related conditiom These components
include those providing enriched mixture strength for cold starting and running,
fuel cut-off on overun, and adjustment of mixture to achieve minimal harmful
emissions.
When starting a cold engine, the cranking speed induces very low air flow with
resulting low fuel delivery to the injectors. The additional fuel necessary for
cold starting i s supplied by the cold start injector only at cranking, and for a
maximum duration of between 0.1 and 8.0 seconds dependant on coolant temperature.
Auxiliary
Cold Start Injector Air Valve
I / Fuel l njector
Cold Start
The single cold start injector i s fitted into an air rail running alongside the fuel
injector air stream rail on the inlet manifold. Connecting passages join this air
r a i l with each intake tract. A hose from the auxiliary air valve allows a flow of
air to be drawn around the cold start injector on engine cranking to finely atomise
the fuel sprayed from its nozzle.
'
The cold start iniector i s a solemid valve supplied with fuel at primary pressure
from the fuel distributor, and i s opened by a current supplied via, and for a time
period governed by the thermal time switch.
Page 14 SECTION LD
The thermal time switch i s fitted into the inlet manifold water jacket between tracts
3 & 4. Its function is to control the injection time of the cold start injector dependent
on engine temperature,
The switch consists of a hollow tube, inside which i s mounted an electrical contact
controlled by a bimetallic strip wound with a heating coil.
The current, supplied to the thermal time switch only whilst the engine i s cranked,
i s passed through the heating coil, and switch contacts to the cold s b r t inlector.
As the bimetal strip heats up, i t bends and opens the contacts, shu'tfing off the injector.
-
Maximum injection time, at 20° C i s approx. 8 secs. The warmer the engine is,
the more heat i s absorbed by the bimetal strip, so that a shorter electrical heating
time is needed to break the contact. When the engine i s a t normal running temperature
the switch absorbs sufficient heat to keep the contacts open rendering the cold start
injector inoperative.
I n order to overcome the increased friction present i n a cold engine, and enable the
engine to idle satisfactorily after cold start-up, an auxiliary air valve i s fitted between
the plenum chamber and cold start air mil to by-p& the throttle butterflies and provide
an additional air flow to the engine. Since this air i s drawn through the airflow sensor,
additional fuel i s injected accordingly.
Valve Plate
Bi-metallic Strip
Opening Spring
The auxll iary air valve comists of a ptvoted plate provided with a specially shaped aperture
such that by moving the plate the by-pass air supply line m y be regulated between fully
open and fully closed. Movement of the disc i s controlled by an opening spring and a
closingheating coil wound, bimetal strip.
SECTION LD Page 15
0- AsI n the cold engine condition the plate adopts a position fully opening the by-pass line.
soon as the ignition switched on, current flows through the heating coil and
is
gradually causes the bimetal strip to bend and rotate the plate,reducing the by-pass
aperture. As the engine warns, and its heat i s absorbed by the valve body, the heating
effect of the coil i s augmented and the plate i s rotated further to fully close the by-pass.
Engine heat alone is sufficient to ensure that the by-pass remains closed when the engine
IS warm.
I n order to compensate for the condensation of fuel on the inlet tract and cylinder walls
whilst the engine i s running cold, and to maintain driveability until normal running
temperature i s reached, i t i s necessary to enrich the fuel/air mixture during this period.
The warm up regulator fulfils this function by reducing the control pressure by an amount
dependent on engine temperature. When the control pressure i s reduced, the fuel control
valve i n the distributor is allowed to move further for a given airflow and open a greater
proportion of the metering slits, increasing fuel flow to the iniectorr.
The warm up regulator comists of a flat seat valve controlling the return of fuel from the
control pressure line to the tank. The valve i s held closed by a coil spring, but this i s
opposed by a bimetallic spring wound with a heating element which i s fed with current
whilst the ignition i s switched on.
When cold, the bimetal spring overcomes the coil spring and opens the valve, such that
the control pressure is low, a.nd the mixture rich o n engine start up. . As the engine runs,
the bimetal spring i s heated, both by' i t s heating coil, andby &in& heat absorbed by
the regulator, and gradually reduces i t s opening force on the valve. Finally, when the
.engine reaches normal running temperature, the bimetal spring i s sufficiently heated to
l i f t clear of the valve rod so that the control pressure i s controlled only by the coil
.

Page 16 SECTION LD
Operating the engine at high altitude where the air density i s lower, requires that
some compensation be made by the fuel metering system to prevent the mixture
becomi ng too rich.
This compensation is achieved by incorporating an aneroic capsule into the base of the
warm up regulator. The valve rod i s extended to abut against the capsule, which i s
held i n a 'flattened' condition by atmospheric pressure and a leaf spring as shown i n
the warm up regulator diagram. A t high altitude, the reduced atmospheric pressure
results i n the aneroic capsule 'expanding' and exerting an additional closing force on
the control pressure valve, raising the control pressure and compensating the mixture
strength for altitude.
The air/fuel ratio may also be represented by expressing the amount of air present i n
the mixture as a proportion of that amount required for a stoichiometric ratio. This
proportion, the excess air factor, when used i n connection with Bosch fuel injection, i s
. ,
referred to by the Greek letter Lambda (L) Thus, when Lambda (L) = 1 the correct
amount of ai; i s present, and the air/fvel ratio = 14 to 1 .
Excess-air factor L
When L I s greater than 1, too much air i s present and the mixture i s lean. When' L i s
less than one, too l i t t l e air i s present, and the mixture rich.
Page 17-.
LD. 13 - U M B D A SENSOR
It i s possible to determine the excess air factor of the mixture being delivered to the
cyllnden by measbring the oxygen content of the exhaust gas before the catalyst.
This i s achieved by fitting a Lambda sensor into the exhaust system between the
turbocharger and =ato1yst .
The Lambda sensor i s calibrated such that deviations from L = 1 (the desired air/fucl ratio)
result i n a sudden change to its output voltage signal. This signal i s used by an electronic
control unit to determine the fuel delivery correction necessary. This correction i s made
via a 'Frequency Valve' fitted between the fuel distributor and tank. The sensor is
fitted with its own heating coil which i s used to heat the semor to operating temperature
after engine start up. Signals from the sensor are only processed a t engine o i l temperatures
above 3 5 O ~ .
- FREQUENCY VALVE
a LD. 14 (Timing Vafve)
Corrections to the fuel delivery as determined by the Lambda sensor and electronic
control unit (E.C.U.), are made by altering the fuel pressure beneath the diaphragm
of the differential valves i n the fuel distributor.

I n order that the pressure i n these lower chambers may be varied, the connection between
their ring main and the regulated primary pressure i s fitted with a small orifice (ftxed
throttle), and a return line from the lower chambers to the tank i s provided with a variable
throttle. In this way, ifthe variable throttle i s closed, regulated primary pressure w i l l be

lower chambers to bleed off back to the tank, hence lowering the pressure.

The valve i s controlled by a n electric power supply and manifold vacuum but governed
by the engine coolant temperature, engine speed and the position of the throttle. The
valve has an a i r inlet and outlet w i t h the inlet spigot pressed into a grommet i n the a i r
cleaner main body while the outlet i s connected by hose to the a i r flow sensor lower
housing. When the valve i s triggered to its open position air w i l l be drawn through the
valve into the lower housing collapsing the vacuum below the plate. The sensor plate
movement w i l l be restored as soon as the valve closes.
The engine must be decelemting from a speed greater than 16d0 rprn .
Two critical speeds control the valve operation. It w i l l not be
activated unless the engine is deceierating from above 1600 rpm and
. i t w i l l cut out once the speed dropsdown to !400cpm. The engine
speeds are monitored by a speed sensing relay, mounted i n the ignition

Charcoal Canister
The breather pipes fro-m the fuel tank filler necks are routed via a roll-over valve
(to prevent fuel spillage if the car i s inverted) to p o r t ' ~ ~ ' othe
n charcoal canister,
where the fumes are absorbed i n charcoal before being purged into the engine.
Similarly, when the engine i s stopped, fumes from the intake system are vented to
the canister via a hose linking the airflow sensor lower body to canister port 'C' .
I n order to cleanse the charcoal of fuel absorbed i n this manner, arrangements
are made for fresh a i r to be drawn through the canister and consumed by the engine.
Two different connections are used to purge the canister under different engine
operating conditions.
Port 'PI on the canister i s connected via a one way valve to the inlet manifold cold
start a i r rail, such that when the engine i s running a t small throttle opening, or on
.
overun, (i.e with high manifold vacuum) air i s drawn through the canister and one
way valve into the inlet manifold, and i s then consumed by the engine.
SECTION LD Page 25
I n addition, the small depression below the airflow sensor causes a lesser purge to
take place through canister port 'C' .
At water temperatures above 70° C, with wide throttle openings and high rpm,
when turbo boost pressure i n developed, inlet manifold pressure becomes positive,
and the manifold air r a i l hose is sealed by the one way valve, and A/C idle up
solenoid (will not open above 1400 rpm). Purging now takes place through
canister port 'C' to the depression (greater now with increased airflow) below
the airflow sensor.
I n order to prevent these fumes, under low airflow engine idle conditions, escaping
through the i n l e t trunking to atmosphere, the valve i s also connected via a smaller bore
hose, to the mild depression below the airflow sensor. This enables crankcase fumes a t
idle to pass directly into the intake tract and supresses opening of the breather valve.

It must be possible, however, to feel the.plunger make contact with this
lever again. If this condition i s fulfilled, the control plunger can be
considered to move freely.
b) Check that the control lever moves freely; press the sensor plate to its
full deflection again, and then release i t . The semor plate should snap back
to the zero position and bounce up about twice from the spring-loaded stop.

.
the relay coil, and earth via terminal 31 The relay contacts now connect
the positive feed from terminal 30 to the fuel pumps via terminal 876, and to
the injection control circuit via terminal 87.
The injection control circuit supplies a positive feed to terminal 8 of the E.C.U.,
the frequency valve and the heating coils o f the auxiliary a i r valve and warm up
regulator.
The closed high temp. switch supplies the fast warrr up relay. See circuit (3).
A feed from the cold start contact on the starter motor solenoid supplies the cold
start injector which i s controlled by the thermal ti.ne switch.
Earth signals are supplied to terminals 12 and 6 of the E.C .U. via the low temp.
switch and fuel by-pass control relay (via i d l e changeover relay).
The fast warm up relay, activated by the closed high temperature switch, provides
a n earth circuit for the ignition solenoid which receives a feed from the ignition
auxiliary circuit. The ignition solenoid operates the throttle jacking capsule which,
a t idle, prevents the throttle position switch 'closed' contact closing. N o earth
signal is supplied to E.C .U. terminal 6.

Below 1400 rpm, the fuel by-pass speed sensing relay drops out, and circuit
(5) applies.

A feed from the compressor circuit i s directed via the idle up control relay to
energise the idle up relay. This cuts off the earth circuit for the a/c idle up
solenoid, which i s de-energised and opened.
This circuit only operates below 1400 rpm.
The fuel enrichment module, supplied with a negative feed from the ignition
coil, senses when an engine speed of 3250 rpm i s reached, and allows an
ignition feed to operate the relay coil and close the relay contacts. This
provides an earth signal to E.C .U. terminal 7.

minimum of 4 R.P.M. before
making contact and thereby
energising the fuel pump and

Electronic control unit for exhausts emission control This unit processes
information supplied by various sensors/swi tches and controls the opera tion of
the frequency valve.
Connect as below. (Cavity numbers are moulded into connector)
The module senses low tension ignition pulses and supplies a negative to the
fuel pump control relay winding.
I n the event of excessive engine speed (7,000 2 50 R.P.M=) this feed i s removed
thereby stopping the injection system operating and limiting engine R. P. M.
Also i n the event of one of the two fuel pumps failing to operate the maximum
engine R.P.M. i s restricted to 2,800 + 50 R.P.M. This i s achieved by
monitoring the current drawn by e a ~ h - ~ uand m ~ removing the negative to
the fuel pump control relay windings at 2,800 + 50 R. P.M. i n the event of
one pump failing to draw any current. ~hereforeany part of the circuit between
the module and the pump, going open circuit, w i l l be detected and engine R. P.M.
restricted. (This unit w i l l therefore sense blown fuse, broken or disconnected
fuel pump wiring .)
Disconnection of the module w i l l not allow the fuel pumps to operate. Single
pump failure may cause the fuse i n the other pump circuit to blow due to the
increased load imposed on i t (dependent on position i n which failed pump fails).
This circuit is designed as a "get you home" aid i n the event of failed fuel pump
but the vehicle require attention to the fuel pump system as soon as possible.

The i n s t ~ m e n binnacle
t contains a centre panel housing the main instruments, and two
side panels housing the tell tale lamps, switches and volt and fuel gauges.
The side panels may be removed with the binnacle 'in s i b ' by removing the four screws
securing the centre panel ABS trim, followed by the single screw securing each side
panel at i t s outermost edge. Access to the fibre optic light source (switch illumination)
.
may be obtained after removal of the right hand side panel Voltmeter and fuel gauge
illumination bulbs may also be replaced after removal of the appropriate side panel.
The Brake fail warning lamp relay may also be reached after removal of the left hand
side panel .
For access to an instrument housed i n the centre panel, it i s necessary.fint to remove the
binnacle assembly from the fascia. After removal of the four M6 bolts securing the
binnacle assembly to the scuttle crossbeam (accessible from beneath) the binnacle may be
raised sufficiently to enable the three wiring loom block connectors to be unplugged, the 1
speedo cable to be released, and the boost and o i l pressure gauge pipes to be disconnected.
Also release the demist vent duct from the binnacle adaptor.
The Lucas constant energy ignition system is an inductive system i n which the energy
stored i n the coil i s maintained constant over a wide range of engine speeds, thereby
providing consistently high output voltages. The system comprises a distributor model
45 DM, and ignition coil model 32 C5, an ignition amplifier model AB 14 and an
electronic rev. limiter.
A conventional type rotor arm i s fitted, moulded (as is the distributor cap) from track
retardant material. The two cables connecting the distributor to the ignition amplifier
terminate i n a non-reversible "shur plug".
The high energy coil (model 32 C5) i s specially designed to achieve the very fast
current rise times required for this system. The coil requires no ballast and consumes
no current i n the stalled engine condition.
The ignition amplifier (AB 14) i s mounted i n t he ignition box whilst the electronic rev.
limiter unit i s fitted on the RH fuel tank board.

The i n s t ~ m e nbinnacle
t contains a centre panel housing ihe main instruments, and two
side panels housing the t e l l tale lamps, switches and v o l t and fuel gauges.
The side panels may be removed with the binnacle 'in situ' by removing the four screws
securing the centre panel ABS trim, followed by the single screw securing each side
panel at its outermost edge. Access to the fibre optic light source (switch illumination)
may be obtained after removal o f the right hand side panel. Voltmeter and fuel gauge
illumination bulbs may also be replaced after removal of the appropriate side panel .
The Brake fail warning lamp relay may also be reached after removal of the left hand
side panel.
For access to an instrument housed i n the centre panel, it i s necessary first to remove the
binnacle assembly from the fascia. After removal of the four M6 bolts securing the
binnacle assembly to the scuttle crossbeam (accessible from beneath) the binnacle may be
raised sufficiently to enable the three wiring loom block connectors to be unplugged, the
speedo cable to be released, and the boost and o i l pressure gauge pipes to be disconnected.
Also release the demist vent duct from the binnacle adaptor.

'Operation
With the air conditioning control 'ON' and engine running, the compressor clutch
operates engaging the compressor. Low pressure vapour entering the compressor is
converted into high pressure vapour at the output and discharged into a condenser. The
vapour i s cooled i n the condenser changing into a liquid, from here i t flows into the
receiver-drier, where any foreign matter i s expelled.
A sight glass following the receiver-drier provides a means of checking the system is f u l l
of refrigemnt and operating correctly. High pressure liquid enters the expansion valve
where it expands rapidly changing from high to low pressure liquid. As the refrigemnt
expands i n the evaporator i t begins to boil, absorbing heat from the core and cooling the
air passing through to the passenger compartment. The compressor draws off the low
pressure vapourised refrigerant completing the closed circuit and recyclirtg the refrigerant
passenger compartment
Conderser
The condenser i s located i n front of engine radiator. Air passes over the condenser
cooling fins, cooling the 'hot' high pressure refrigemnt vapour and condensing it into @
SECTION PB Page 3
a high pressure liquid. The corstruction of the condenser i s similar to the engine radiator
but is designed to withstand higher pressures .
Receiver-Drier
Located i n the front compartment on the right hand side iis purpose is to ensure a supply
of liquid refrigemnt to the expansion valve i n an operational condition. A drier is
incorporated i n the base of Receiver-drier whichahsorbs any moisture that entered the
system during assembly. Any foreign matter i n the refrigerant w i l l also be trapped i n the
drier.
Some models are fitted with a low pressure cut out switch at the receiver-drier to prevent
damage to the compressor due to lack of lubrication from running with a discharged system.
Exmnsion Valve
The expansion valve i s located a t the side of the evaporator and thermostatically meters
the flow of high pressure liquid refrigerant into the evaporator. The refrigerant supply i s
controlled by a capillary tube strapped to the outlet pipe of the evaporator, as the
temperature changes at the outlet pipe so the refrigerant flow through the valve changes.
When liquid to the core of the evaporator exceeds requirement the outlet temperature
drops, this i s sersed via the capillary tube, closing down the expansion valve and reducing
the flow of liquid refrigerant. The expansion valve i s pre-set internally and has no
external adjustment .
Temmrature Control Switch
Turning the control clockwise to the required temperature position w i l l engage the
compressor clutch and drive the compressor. On some models when the compressor is
running a red light (a light emitfing diode above the temperature control switch) is
illuminated.
Two fan motors are contained behind a cover i n the front luggage compartment on the
bulkhead. Fresh air is drawn into this cover from a chamber at the base of the
windscreen via a fresh air flap, and i s then blown into the heater/air conditioning
unit for heating/refrigeration and distribution to the various outlet vents. The
heater/air conditioning unit itself contains two flaps, a mode flap, controlling
airflow through the heater matrix, and a screen flap controlling airflow to the
windscreen vents. The fresh air flap and mode flap are opemted by vacuum
actuators supplied with vacuum on Domestic and ROW cars by the inlet manifold
via a non-return valve and reservoir mounted on the left hand fuel tank board,
whilst Federal Esprit Turbo's are supplied with vacuum from an engine driven pump.
The vacuum supply i s controlled by two valves mounted on a control plate and
operated by a cam connected by cable to the distribution control knob. The screen
flap i s mechanically opemted via the distribution control cable, and a bellcrank
Footwell Vents
To Screen Vents
This setting should be used during city driving to avoid drawing traffic fumes into the car.
With the air conditioning switched on, this is the haximum refrigerationt setting. Air is
drawn by the fan from the interior of the car through the re-circulation vent, and is blown
through the evaporcitor to the centre and outer face level vents. Also through the
footwell bleed holes (deleted mid '86).

2. Do NOT transport drums of refrigerant i n the passenger compartment of a car.
The following precautions should be read carefully before carrying out any work on the
refrigerant pipework.
(approximately 2 to 3 minutes).
ALWAYS WEAR SAFEW GOGGLES WHEN OPENING REFRIGERANT
CONNECTIONS.
Page 70 SECTION PB
Pipes, flexible end connec tions and components, MUST be capped immedi-
ately they are opened to prevent the ingress of moisture and/or dirt.
A11 replacement components and flexible end connections are sealed when
new, and should only be opened IMMEDIATELY PRl OR TO FITTING, A N D
AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, to prevent condensation of any moisture which
may enter when the sealing is removed.
The receiver-drier should be the LAST component to be connected, this i s to
ENSURE optimum dehydration and maximum moisture protection of the
system.
Precautions MUST be taken to prevent damage to fittings and connections;
minute damage could cause a leak due to the high pressures used i n the
system. ALWAYS USE TWO SPANNERS OF THE CORRECT SIZE (one on
each union nut), when releasing or tightening pipes, or connections. This
is purticurlarly important with the pipes on the condenser as this unit i s con-
structed from aluminium.
A l l joints should be coated with refrigeration o i l BEFORE making any
connections, as this w i l l aid seating.
A l l pipes and haes MUST BE FREE from any kinking. The efficiency of the
system can be impaired by a single kink, or restriction, Flexible hoses
should not be bent to a radius which i s less than ten times the diameter of
the hose.
Before charging the system i t i s first necessary to evacuate the system for the following
reasons:

i n the above table, add or subtract o i l until the mid-range figure i s achieved.
9. Refit o i l filler plug and tighten to 6 to 9 f t . lbs. (0.8 to 1 .2 kg-m). Ensure the
O-ring i s not twisted and that the O-ring seating is clean before fitting, Do not
overtighten if plug leaks, fit a new O-ring. Re-charge the system with

with a viscosity of 500. Only oils listed under RECOMMENDED REFRIGERANT OIL should
be used when adding or changing the oil.
To Remove
1 . Depressurise the air conditioning system by slackening the union nut securing the
pipe to the receiver-drier. Take the necessary precautions described under the
heading 'Refrigerant Pipework'.
2. Remove the pipe connections to the compressor, taking the necessary precautions
described under the heading ' ~ e f r i ~ e r c l n
Pipework'.
t
3. Loosen and remove the compressor drive belt and disconnect the electrical
connections to the compressor clutch.
4. Remove the two nuts and bolts securing t h e compressor to the mounting bracket.
Drain the o i l from the compressor and measure the amount drained. Make a note
of the amount of o i l dmined as this information is required when replacing the
compressor.
To Replace
1 . Reverse the removal procedure. Refill the compressor with the same amount of
new o i l as that drained during removal, plus an additional one fluid ounce.
Before assembling the p i p w o r k lubricate the flared ends and union threads with
refrigerant o i l .
2, Recharge the system as previously described.
3. The compressor drive belt should be correctly tersioned to give a total movement
of 9 mm (0.35 its) on the longest run of belt.
3. Refill the new compressor with an amount of new o i l equal to that drained from
the old compressor, plus an additional one fluid ounce (30 cc) of new o i l .
After a major failure involving total loss of fluid and a replacement compressor; it
is necessary to add an extra 2.7 fluid oz. (80 cc) of o i l to the 6 fluid oz. (175 cc)
of o i l suppl ied i n the new compressor.

NOTE: Satisfactory operation of the compressor depends on there being sufficient
o i l i n the system. However too much oil decreases the cooling efficiency
of the installation.
