shown in Figure 66. Gauge must be between shut-

off valve and pump. Open shut-off valve,

b.
Remove filler cap from pump reservoir and check

fluid level. Fill pump reservoir to full mark on

dip stick. Start engine and, holding steering

wheel against stop, check connections at Tool

J-5176 for leakage. Bleed system as outlined
under Maintenance and Adjustments. Insert ther-

mometer (Tool J-5421) in reservoir filler open-

ing. Move steering wheel from stop to stop

several times until thermometer indicates that

hydraulic fluid in reservoir has reached tempera-

ture of 150° to 170°F.

CAUTION: To prevent scrubbing flat spots on

tires,
do not turn steering wheel more than five

times without rolling car to change tire-to-floor

contact area.

c. Hold steering wheel against a stop momentarily

and read pressure gauge. If the maximum pres-

sure is below specifications, a faulty hydraulic

circuit is indicated. To determine which part is

faulty, proceed with test number two.

Test Number Two—Oil Circuit Closed

a. Slowly turn shut-off valve on J-5176 to closed

position and read pressure indicated on gauge.

Quickly reopen valve to avoid pump damage, if

indicated pressure is less than specification,

pump output is below requirement and pump may

be considered faulty. If pressure indicated is

within specifications, it may be safely assumed

that the external hoses, connections, valve and

adapter or steering gear is at fault.

NOTE:
If pump proves faulty in test number

two,
test should be repeated after pump is re-

paired and installed in vehicle. This will provide

a means of checking the repairs made to the

pump and the condition of the steering gear or

valve and adapter which may also be faulty.

COMPONENT REPLACEMENT AND REPAIRS

Adjustment- Adjust the bead chain so that it is as tight

as possible without holding the throttle open when the

carburetor is set at its lowest idle throttle position.

When connecting the bead chain (engine stopped) manually

set the fast idle cam at its lowest step and connect the

chain so that it does not hold the idle screw off the cam.

If the chain needs to be cut, cut it three beads beyond the

bead which pulls the linkage.

REGULATOR

Service - A defective regulator, that is one which is not

simply out of adjustment, must be replaced. During re-

placement, check the hoses which connect to the regulator

and replace any which are cracked or deteriorated.

Air Filter

The air filter located in the solenoid cover should be

cleaned and re-oiled at engine oil change intervals.

1.
Snap the solenoid cover off.

2.
Remove the filter and wash it in kerosene or mineral

spirits. Squeeze it dry and wet with SAE 10 engine

oil.
Squeeze out excess oil and reinstall into the

cover.

3.
Attach the cover with neoprene seal to the solenoid

housing. Be certain that the cover fits tightly to the

housing.

One regulator adjustment is possible: Engagement-

Cruising Speed Zeroing (to remove any difference be-

tween engagement and cruising speed).

NOTE:
No regulator adjustment should be

made, however, until the following items have

been checked or serviced:

1.
Bead chain properly adjusted.

2.
All hoses in good condition, properly attached, not

leaking, not pinched or kinked.

3.
Regulator air filter clean and properly oiled.

4.
Electric and vacuum release switches properly

adjusted.

Engagement—Cruising Speed Zeroing

If the cruising speed is lower than the engagement

speed, loosen the orifice tube locknut and turn the tube

outward; if higher, turn the tube inward. Each 1/8 turn

will alter the engagement-cruising speed difference one

mph. Tighten the locknut after adjustment and check the

system operation at 50 mph.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CHECK OUT

1.
Check fuse and connector.

2.
Check electric brake switch as follows: Unplug con-

nector at brake switch. Connect ohmmeter at points

A and B on brake switch. The ohmmeter must indi-

cate infinity when the brake pedal is depressed and

continuity when pedal is released. The cruise re-

lease brake switch (electric) is adjusted as is the

standard stop light brake switch. Replace electric

brake switch if needed.

3.
Check engagement switch and connecting wiring as
follows: Unplug push button control connector

(brown, blue, black) at electrical wiring harness con-

nector and perform the following tests. (See Fig-

ure 10)

Test #1
—
Connect ohmmeter between terminal #1 (brown

wire) and terminal #2 (blue wire). Continuity shall be

maintained until switch is depressed all the way in.

Test #2
—
Connect ohmmeter between terminal #1 (brown

wire) and terminal #3 (black). No continuity shall be

shown; however, when the button is depressed halfway,

continuity shall be indicated. When the button is pressed

all the way down, no continuity shall be shown.

Test #3 — Connect ohmmeter between terminal #2 (blue

wire) and terminal #3 (black). Button released, no con-

tinuity; however, when the button is depressed partially

and fully, continuity shall be shown.

4.
Check regulator solenoid coil, low-speed switch, and

wiring harness as follows:

a. Disconnect engagement switch wire harness con-

nector from the main wire harness connector

(brown, blue, and black wires). Connect ohm-

meter
'
between point C (blue wire in main wire

harness) and ground. (Make sure the regulator is

well grounded to chassis.) The ohmmeter should

read 45 ohms ± 2 ohms. If a resistance of

greater value is shown, then disconnect the con-

nector from the regulator and measure the re-

sistance of the blue wire from point C to D. It

should measure 40 ohms. Check the resistance

from point E (vertical bar of terminal forming T)

to ground. It should measure 5 ohms ± 1/4 ohm.

Replace either the wiring harness or solenoid as

needed if greater values are indicated. The black

harness wiring from point F to G should also be

checked for continuity.

SERVO AND VACUUM SYSTEM CHECK OUT

To determine the condition of the diaphragm, remove

hoses from power unit and apply 14 inches of vacuum to

either vacuum tube opening (seal the other opening) and

hold in for one minute. The vacuum shall not leak down

more than 5 inches of vacuum in one minute. If leakage

is detected, replace servo. To utilize engine as a vac-

uum source, proceed as follows:

1.
DISCONNECT SERVO $EAD CHAIN and hoses from

servo and connect engine vacuum directly to vacuum

servo fitting (fitting in middle of servo). Seal the

servo unit opening.

2.
Note position of servo diaphragm.

3.
Start engine - the diaphragm should pull in.

4.
Clamp off engine vacuum supply line and check for

leakage. '

The cruise release brake switch (vacuum) and connecting

hoses can likewise be checked using a vacuum pump.
