MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS

In any service operation it is extremely important

that absolute cleanliness be observed. Any foreign matter

in the hydraulic system will tend to clog the lines, ruin

the rubber cups of the main and wheel cylinders and

cause inefficient operation or even failure of the braking

system. Dirt or grease on a brake lining may cause

that brake to grab first on brake application and fade

out on heavy brake application.

The split system consists basically of two separate

brake systems. When a failure is encountered on either,

the other is adequate to stop the vehicle. If one system

is not functioning, it is normal for the brake pedal lash

and pedal effort to substantially increase. This occurs

because of the design of the master cylinder which

incorporates ah actuating piston for each system. When

the rear system loses fluid and takes in air, its piston

will bottom against the front piston. When the front

system loses fluid and takes in air, its piston will

bottom on the end of the main cylinders body. The loss

of fluid in one of the systems causes an uneven hydraulic

pressure balance between the front and rear systems.

The brake pipe distribution and switch assembly, near

the main cylinder, detects the loss of pressure and il-

luminates the brake alarm indicator light on the instru-

ment panel. The pressure loss is felt at the brake pedal

by an apparent lack of brakes for most of the brake

travel and then, when failed chamber is bottomed, the

pedal will harden.

HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID

Use GM Hydraulic Brake Fluid, Supreme No. 11 or

equivalent when servicing brakes. This brake fluid is

satisfactory for any climate and has all the qualities

necessary for proper operation, such as a high boiling

point to prevent vapor lock and the ability to remain

fluid at low temperatures.
In the event that improper fluid has entered the system,

it will be necessary to service the system as follows:

1.
Drain the entire system.

2.
Thoroughly flush the system with clean alcohol,

188
proof,
or a hydraulic system cleaning fluid

such as "Declene".

3.
Replace all rubber parts of the system, including

brake hoses.

4.
Refill the system.

5. Bleed the system.

BLEEDING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The hydraulic brake system must be bled whenever

any line has been disconnected or air has in some way

entered the system. A ''spongy" pedal feeling when the

brakes are applied may indicate presence of air in the

system. The system must be absolutely free of air at

all times. Bleeding should be done on the longest line

first; the proper sequence to follow is left rear, right

rear, right front, and left front (fig. 5). Bleeding of

brake system may be performed by one of two methods—

either pressure or manual.

PRESSURE
BLEEDING

1.
Clean all dirt from top of main cylinder and remove

cylinder cover and rubber diaphragm.

2.
Reduce fluid level in main cylinder until reservoirs

are approximately half full.

NOTE:
Make sure brake fluid in bleeder equip-

ment is at operating level and that the. equipment

is capable of exerting 30 to 50 lbs. hydraulic

pressure on the brake system.

3.
Install brake bleeder adapter J-22489 (fig. 6) on

main cylinder. Connect hose from bleeder equipment

to bleeder adapter and open release valve on bleeder

equipment.

Service Battery and Battery Cables

1.
Measure the specific gravity of the electrolyte in

each cell (fig. 6). If it is below 1.230 (corrected to

80°F.) recharge with a slow rate charger, or if de-

sired, further check battery.

2.
Connect a voltmeter across the battery terminals and

measure the terminal voltage of the battery during

cranking (disconnect the coil primary lead at the

negative terminal during this check to prevent engine

from firing). If the terminal voltage is less than 9.0

volts at room temperature, approximately 80°

±
20°
F.,
the battery should be further checked. See

Section 6Y for further tests.

3.
Inspect for signs of corrosion on battery, cables and

surrounding area, loose or broken carriers, cracked

or bulged cases,- dirt and acid, electrolyte leakage

and low electrolyte level. !Fill cells to proper level

with distilled water or water passed through a

"demineralizer".

The top of the battery should be clean and the bat-

tery hold-down bolts properly tightened. Particular

care should be taken to see that the top of the battery

is kept clean of acid film and dirt. When cleaning

batteries, wash first with a dilute ammonia or soda

solution to neutralize any acid present and then flush

off with clean water. Keep vent plugs tight so that

the neutralizing solution does not enter the cell. The

hold-down bolts should be kept tight enough to prevent

the battery from shaking around in its holder, but

they should not be tightened to the point where the

battery case will be placed under a severe strain.

To insure good contact, the battery cables should

be tight on the battery posts. Oil battery terminal

felt washer. If the battery posts or cable terminals
are corroded, the cables should be cleaned separately

with a soda solution and wire brush. After cleaning

and before installing clamps, apply a thin coating of

petrolatum to the posts and cable clamps to help

retard corrosion.

If the battery has remained undercharged, check

for loose or defective fan belt, defective Delcotron,

high resistance in the charging circuit, oxidized

regulator contact points, or a low voltage setting.

If the battery has been using too much water, the

voltage output
is-
too high.

Service Deicotron and Regulator

The Delcotron and regulator tests during tune up con-

sist of the above battery tests; the condition of the battery

indicating further tests and adjustments as outlined in

Section 6Y.

Service Belts (Fig. 7)

Inspect belt condition.

Check and adjust if necessary for correct tension of

belt, as follows:

• Using a strand tension gauge, check the belt tension.

• Adjust belt until the specified tension is reached.

(See Tune Up Chart.)

Service Manifold Heat Valve (Figs. 8 or 9)

Check manifold heat control valve for freedom of oper-

ation. If shaft is sticking, free it up with GM Manifold

Heat Control Solvent or its equivalent.

NOTE: Tap shaft end to end to help free it up.

Cylinder Balance Test
(Fig. 16)

It
is
often difficult
to
locate
a
weak cylinder.
A com-

pression test,
for
example, will
not
locate
a
leaky intake

manifold,
a
valve
not
opening properly
due to a
worn

camshaft,
or a
defective spark plug.

With
the
cylinder balance test,
the
power output
of one

cylinder
may be
checked against another, using
a set of

grounding leads. When
the
power output
of
each cylinder

is
not
equal,
the
engine will lose power
and run
roughly.

Perform
a
cylinder balance test
as
follows:

1.
Connect
the
tachometer
and
vacuum gauge.

2.
Start engine
and run at 1500 rpm.

3.
Ground large clip
of
grounding leads
and
connect
in-

dividual leads
to all
spark plugs except
the
pair being

tested.

NOTE: A tool to apply air to the cylinder is

available through local jobbers or may be manu-

factured. In manufacturing this Tool a AC-46N

Spark Plug or its equivalent is recommended.

This will make the Tool universal for all

Chevrolet engines. Chisel the spark plug as

shown, then drive the porcelain out of the plug

shield and valve cap in place. The close coiled end

of the spring is installed against the cylinder head.

Compress the spring with
Too^
J-5892 and install oil

seal in the lower groove of the stem, making sure the

seal'is flat and not twisted.

NOTE: A light coat of oil on the seal will help

prevent twisting.

CAUTION: The gasket surfaces on both the

head and the block must be clean of any foreign
matter and free of nicks or heavy scratches.

Cylinder bolt threads in the block and threads

on the cylinder head bolt must be cleaned. (Dirt

ENGINE 6-25

refer to Section 6 of the Chassis Overhaul Manual.

Because of the interchangeability and similarity of

many engines, engine sub-assemblies and engine parts,

regardless of which passenger vehicle they are used in,

typical illustrations and procedures are used except
where specific illustrations or procedures are necessary

to clarify the operation. Although illustrations showing

bench operations are used, most single operations, when

not part of a general overhaul, should be performed (if

practical) with the engine in the vehicle.
