EXHAUST SYSTEM
(d) Loosen the pinch bolt (or bolts)
forward of the cruciform centre and
withdraw the silencer rearward.
Remove the lower bolt attaching
flexible mounting strip to chassis frame.
Remove the nut and bolt, collecting
the rubber grommet and rubber washer
securing the bracket to the chassis
frame.
(f)
The front exhaust is detached from
the exhaust manifold by the removal
of three nuts with spring washers.
After the joint is broken the front
exhaust pipe is moved clear of the car.

TO
FIT
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The fitting of the system is the reversal of
the removal but the following points should
be noted:
(a) It is suggested that work is started at
the front as each component fits
into the one in front.
(b) Each mounting should be left loose
and finally tightened when the position
of the silencer is set. The front tube
of the silencer assembly which passes
through the cruciform centre will
need setting to avoid the possibility of
it vibrating against thecmciformcentre.
The mountings
can
be tightened pro-
gressively from front to rear.
(c)
If the
tail
pipe incorporating the small
silencer is being fitted it is attached
in
a similar manner to the pipe and uses
the existing clips. Fig,

TO REMOVE MANIFOLDS
(a) Remove the carburettors as described
in the "Fuel" Section
P.
(b)
Disconnect the exhaust pipe at the
flange by removing the three nuts and
spring washers.
(c)
Remove the eight nuts, spring washers
and six clamps. Both manifolds
together with the gaskets
can
be
removed from the combustion head.
(d) The manifolds
can
be separated by
removing the two nuts and spring
washers situated below the carburettor
mounting flanges.

TO
FIT
MANIFOLDS
The fitting is the reversal of the removal
but the following points should be noted
:-
(a) New gaskets should be used and so
ensure gas tight joints.
(b) The manifolds should be attached to
the cylinder head before
finally
tighten-
ing the inter-connection nuts.
(c)
The carburettors must be synchronised
before the
car
is ready for
the
road.
