exterior moving parts of a carburetor are
often
responsible for unsatisfactory performance.
For
this
reason,
efficient carburetion depends upon careful cleaning and inspection while servicing.
a.
Thoroughly clean carburetor castings and metal
parts
in carburetor cleaning solvent.
Caution:
Accelerator pump plunger and any fiber
or
rubber parts should never be immersed in
car
buretor
cleaner. Wash pump plunger in cleaning
solvent.
b.
Blow out all passages in the castings with com
pressed air. Dry all parts with compressed air.
Make
sure all jets and passages are clean. Do
not use wire to clean fuel passages or air bleeds.
c.
Check
inlet valve
needle

Pump Reassembly
•
Refer to Fig. E-32.
a.
Assemble the valve housing and filter cover, using a new air
dome
diaphragm. The opening
in
the air
dome
diaphragm is located over the
intake
valve. The filter cover is positioned cor
rectly
when the inlet passage in the cover aligns
with
the inlet valve. Tighten the attaching screws
alternately and securely.
b.
Lubricate
diaphragm assembly shaft, around
oil
seal, with
engine
oil. Position diaphragm as sembly on valve housing and thread all the attach ing screws through diaphragm.
(This
helps avoid
damage to the screw
holes
in diaphragm.)
c.
Place diaphragm assembly and valve housing
in
position on pump body (align marks made
before disassembly).
First
start all screws one
or
two threads; then tighten the screws alternately
and
securely.
d.
Lubricate
forked end of cam lever, pin bore
of body, and corresponding
hole
in lever, and the
pin
itself with
engine
oil.
Note:
Forked
end of lever
goes
around diaphragm
shaft. Be sure
loose
bumper washer on diaphragm shaft is on top of lever and
between
lever and fixed
washer
on shaft.
e.
Install
lever and pin. To install pin, use a drift
and
tap pin into the
hole
in the body until it hits
the
stop
on the
bottom
of the hole;
move
the lever while tapping, to align
hole
in lever with the pin;
then install plug.
Install

f.
Install
a new filter bowl gasket in filter cover.
Place
bail

Caution:
Do not overtighten screw.
E-65.
Fuel
Pump Installation
a.
Make certain mating surfaces of fuel pump and
engine
cylinder case are clean. Cement a new gasket to mounting flange of fuel pump.
b.
Position fuel pump on cylinder block, so that
cam
lever of pump rests on fuel pump cam of cam
shaft. Secure pump to block with two cap screws
and
lock washers. Torque
bolts
13 to 17 lb-ft. [1,8

c.
Connect intake and

Fuel
Pump Testing
Whenever
the fuel pump is to be checked for pres
sure
or volume, follow the procedure outline in
Par.
C-23 of this manual.
Fuel
pump pressure is
important
for low pressure
will
seriously affect en
gine
operation and high pressure can cause exces
sive fuel consumption and flooding of the carbure
tor.
Should there be any doubt of normal opera
tion, check the procedure as outlined in Par. C-23.
In
addition to proper fuel pressure, volume of the
pump is also important. When testing for proper
pump pressure, be certain to also
test
for volume
as the pump may build up sufficient pressure, but
fail
to produce sufficient volume.

portant that

lines are not accidentally re

When
installing the fuel tank on late model vehicles, position the tank
between
the frame
rail
to allow space to connect the fuel line(s), vent
hose
and
sending unit wire. After connecting
these
items, align and secure tank to frame brackets.
Position filler
hose
on tank filler neck and tighten
hose
clamp.
Fill
tank with fuel and check for leaks.
When
installing the fuel tank on early model vehicles, reverse the order of removal as given in
Par.
E-73.
E-75.
Fuel
Tank
Cap
A
surge pressure type fuel tank filler cap is used on
all
models.
This
is necessary to prevent fuel leakage
from
the cap vent opening when the vehicle is on a
side slope. Two spring loaded relief valves which
open when venting is required are built into the
cap.
Should the pressure valve
fail
to open, pressure
in
the tank may force fuel by the carburetor inlet
valve causing flooding.
Failure
of the vacuum valve may prevent flow of fuel to the carburetor. Should
the valves
fail
to vent install a new cap.
Note:
Vehicles having a
Fuel
Evaporative
Emis
sion System are equipped with a non-vent sealed gas cap. The sealed cap is designed to allow no
vapors to discharge to the atmosphere. No other type of cap is to be used on vehicles having this
type system.
E-76.
Fuel
Gauge Float Unit
The
fuel tank
gauge
float unit is mounted in the top
of the fuel tank and consists of a housing enclosing
a
rheostat that is actuated by the float arm, and a
float
which
moves
with the fuel level in the tank.
On
V-6 and current production F4
engine
equipped vehicles, the fuel
outlet
pipe is integral with the
float
unit.
The fuel
outlet
pipe has a mesh filter on the inner end.
Note:
Under no circumstances should a fuel tank
gauge
be installed without a mesh filter element.
The
filter,
outlet
pipe, and float unit are locked as
an
assembly to the top of the fuel tank. To remove,
turn
the lock plate that secures the float unit
assembly.
E-77.
Fuel
Lines
Check
lines and connections occasionally for leaks,
and
for severe kinks that might restrict the flow of
fuel. If an excessive amount of
dirt
is found in the
carburetor
or fuel pump, the fuel tank should be
drained
and the fuel lines blown out with com
pressed air.
All
rubber fuel lines and their respective clamps should be checked occasionally to be certain they
are
correctly positioned and not leaking. 133

GENERAL
—V-6
Engine
The
Dauntless V-6
engine
Exhaust
Emission
Con
trol
System consists of a belt-driven air pump
which
directs compressed air through connecting
hoses
to a steel distribution manifold into stainless steel injection
tubes
in the exhaust port adjacent
to each exhaust valve.
This
air, with its normal
oxygen
content, reacts with the hot but incom
pletely burned exhaust
gases
and permits further combustion in the exhaust port or manifold.
The
Exhaust
Emission System on V6-225
engines
limits
the hydrocarbon and carbonmonoxide emissions from the exhaust system. The system includes
an
engine
designed for low emissions and lean
carburetor
calibration at idle and part throttle.
The
lean carburetion is possible because of the
heated air system that is part of the Emission
System.
See Fig. F2-2.
With
the heated air system
operating, inlet air temperature is around
115°F.
[46°C],
after the first few minutes of operation.
This
makes the use of lean (hot weather)
cali
bration
possible, and the vehicle
still
responds and
drives
well in cold weather.
The
engine
has a "ported"
spark
advance, with the
vacuum
take-off just above the throttle valve, so that there is no vacuum advance at closed throttle,
but there is vacuum advance as
soon
as the throttle is opened slightly. To reduce emissions at idle and
at lower
engine
speeds, the
engine
timing is such
that the distributor
will
not have centrifugal ad
vance until about 900 RPM.

pipe, a adapter elbow and an air cleaner containing temperature control doors operated by vacuum
through a temperature sensor. The heat
stove
is a
sheet
metal cover, shaped to and bolted on with
the right exhaust manifold. Air drawn in along the lower
edge
of the
stove
passes across the mani
fold surface, picking-up heat. The heated air is
drawn
out from the front of the manifold, through
the heated air pipe and adapter elbow into the
snorkel
of the air cleaner.
The
temperature control air cleaner is designed to mix this heated air with cold air from under the
hood so that carburetor inlet air temperature aver
ages
about
115°F.
[46°C.].
This
mixing is
done
by two air doors, a cold air door and a hot air door,
which
move
together
so that when the cold air door is closed, the hot air door is open and vice
versa.
Most of the time, both doors
will
be partially
open as required to control the temperature. When
the underhood temperature reaches about 135
°F
[57°C]
the cold air door
will
open wide and the
hot air door
will
close
tight See Fig. F2-3. Ob viously, if underhood temperatures rise above
135°F.
[57°C]
the air cleaner
will
no longer be
able to control temperatures and the inlet air tem
perature
will
rise with underhood temperature.
The
temperature doors are moved by a diaphragm
type vacuum door. When there is no vacuum pres ent in the motor, the diaphragm spring forces the
cold air door open and the hot air door closed.
Whenever
the
engine
is running, the amount of
vacuum
present in the vacuum motor depends on
the temperature sensor in the air cleaner which is located in the vacuum line
between
the intake
manifold and the vacuum motor. In the sensor, a 149
