SYSTEM REPAIR NOTES
1.
The majority of the fuel injection components
are sealed units and cannot be adjusted or
repaired.
Tampering with a sealed component
will automatically void the component
warranty. The following guide indicates
component serviceability and authorised
repairs:
Fuel Pump:
The fuel pump is not serviceable. The return
check valve located in the fuel inlet cannot be
replaced.
Accumulator:
Not serviceable.
Fuel Filter:
Not serviceable, replace when contaminated.
Mixture Control Unit:
• Fuel Distributor:
The fuel distributor can be removed from
the mixture control unit for replacement.
Fuel distributor is not serviceable.
• Primary Pressure Regulator:
The regulator
O-ring
seals'
are replace-
able and the primary pressure may be
adjusted by adding or subtracting spring
shims.
• Air Flow Sensor Assembly:
Sensor plate and arm assembly can be
centred if a binding condition exists.
Rest position of sensor plate can also be
adjusted.
Control Pressure Regulator:
Not serviceable.
Cold Start Valve:
Not serviceable.
Thermo-time
Switch:
Not serviceable.
Fuel Injectors:
Not serviceable.
Throttle Valves:
Throttle idle stop position is preset and should
not be tampered
with.
2.
The largest problem affecting the operation of
fuel injection components is dirt and moisture
contamination. Therefore, precautions
should be taken when working on the system
to avoid contamination.
3. When replacing fuel lines or components, use
only approved replacement parts that were
designed for this system. Due to the high fuel
pressures used in this system, do not attempt
to splice fuel hoses.
4.
After replacing any major fuel injection
component, the engine idle speed and CO
level should be checked and adjusted if
necessary.
5. The RPM relay is located
in
the relay
compartment behind the passenger seat.
(See "Electrical System and Instruments"
Section
M).
6. The inertia switch is located under the left
side of the dash panel and is mounted to the
footwell
wall,
adjacent to the luggage
compartment cover release. When the button
on the inertia switch is in the "up" position
the switch is in the "open" position. In this
position the fuel pump will not operate and
the door locks will move to the unlock
position.
To reset the inertia switch, depress
the button or move to the "down" position.
7. Excessively high fuel pressures can be caused
by a plugged fuel return line.
8. Positive pressure buildup in the fuel tank is
normal for this system.
9. If it is necessary to adjust the CO level, the
adjusting hole plug can be removed by drilling
down to the hardened steel insert and
threading a pulling tool into the
plug.
