DESCRIPTION

The

diaphragm
type
fuel

pump
shown
in

Fig

feeds

fuel

from
the
tank
to
the
carburettor
in
a

regulated
supply

according
to
the
needs
of
the

engine
A
cartridge
type
fuel

strainer

prevents
any
dirt
from

reaching
the

pump
inlet
valve

The

carburettor
fitted
to

the

engine
is
either
a
down

draught
two
barrel

type
equipped
with
a
throttle

operated

acceleration

pump
and
power
valve
mechanism

See
Fig
D

or
a
twin
SU
carburettor
of
the

type
shown
in

Fig
D
3
In
the

two
barrel

type
carburettor

fuel
flows
from
the

passage
at
the

bottom
of
the
float
chamber

passes
through
the

primary
main

jet
and
mixes
with
air

introduced

through
the
main
air
bleed

screw

The

petrol
and
air
mixture
is

injected
into
the
venturi

through
the
main
nozzle

Each
time
the
accelerator

pedal
is

depressed
the
throttle

opens
and
the
accelerator

pump
forces
a

jet
of

petrol
into
the

air
stream
to
allow
the

engine
to
accelerate

smoothly
See

Fig

0
4
The

power
valve
mechanism
is

operated
automatically

according
to
the
demands
made

by
the

engine
Under
light
load

i
e

part
throttle
conditions
the
intake
manifold

depression
is

transmitted
below
the
throttle
valve
the
vacuum

pulls
a

piston

upwards
against
a

spring
and
leaves
the

power
valve
closed

allowing
additional
air
to
be

admitted
through
the
air
bleed
screw

and
thereby
weaken
the

petrol
and
air
mixture
When
the
vacuum

below
the
throttle
vaJve
is
lowered

during
full
load
conditions

the

piston
is

pushed
down
opening
the

power
valve
and
providing

additional
fuel
to
enrichen
the
mixture

The
model

HJ
L
38W6
SU
twin
carburettor
is
of

the

horizontal
variable
venturi

type
and
is
used

only
on
the
1600

and
1800
cc

engines
In
this

type
of
carburettor
a

constant

flow
of
intake
air
is

maintained

by
the

automatically
adjusted

venturi

opening
this
is
accomplished

by
the
suction

piston

sliding
in
accordance
with

changes
in
the
volume
of
intake
air

Referring
to

Fig
D
5
the
suction
chamber
is
mounted
above

the
venturi
The
suction

piston
slides
vertically
within
the

chamber

and

changes
the
venturi

opening
area
The

piston
is

operated
by
a

difference
between
the

upper
vacuum

pressure

which
is

applied
through
the
suction

poct
and
the
atmospheric

pressure
which

is
introduced

through
the
air
hole
from
the
air

cleaner

The
amount

by
which
the
throttle
is

opened
causes
the

suction

piston
to
rise
or
fall
under
the
intluence
of
the

engine

suction
The

pozzle

opening
therefore

changes
and

provides
an

optimum
air
fuel
mixture
at
all

engine
speeds

The

cartridge
type
fuel
strainer
utilizes
a
fibre
strainer

element
which
should
be

replaced
every
20
000
km
12
000

miles
Removal
of
the
fuel
strainer
is
a

simple
operation
but
as

it
cannot
be
drained
the
strainer
should
not
be
removed

earth
electrical

system
is
used
in
which

the

battery
is

charged
by
an
alternator
In
the
alternator
a

magnetic
field
is

produced
by
the
rotor

which
consists
of
the

alternator
shaft
field
coil

p
le

pieces
and

slip
rings

Output
current
is

generated
in
the
armature
coils
located

in
the
stator
Six
silicon
diodes
are

incorporated
in
the
alternator

caSing
to

rectify
the

alternating

supply
A
voltage

regulator
and

pilot
lamp
relay
are
built
in
the

regulator
box

which

nonnally
does
not

give
trouble
or

require
attention

The
starter
motor
is
a

brush

type
series
wound
motor

in

which

positive
meshing
of
the

pinion
and

ring

gear

BATTERY
Maintenance

The

battery
should
be
maintained
in
a
clean
and

dry

condition
at
all
times
or
a
current

leakage
may
occur

between

the
terminals
If

frequent
topping

up
is

required
it
is
an

indication
of

overcharging
or
deterioration
of
the

battery

When

refitting
the
cables
clean
them

thoroughly
and
coat

their

terminals
and
the
terminal

posts
with

petroleum
jelly

Check
the
level
of
the

electrolyte
in
the

battery
at

frequent

intervals
and

top
up
if

necessary
to

the
level
mark
on

the

battery
case
with

A

hydrometer
test
should
be

carried
out

to
determine
the
state

of

charge
of

the

battery
by

measuring
the

specific
gravity
of
the

electrolyte
It
should
be

pointed
out

that
the
addition
of

sulphuric
acid
will
not

normally

be

necessary
and
should

only
be
carried
out

by
an

expert
when

required

The

gravity
of
the

electrolyte
should
be
ascertained

with
the

battery

fully
charged
at
an

electrolyte
temperature
of

200C
680F

The

decreases
or
increases

by
0
0007
when
its

temperature
rises
or
falls

by
10C

respectively

The

temperature
referred

to
is
that
of
the

electrolyte
and

not
the
ambient

temperature
to
correct
a

reading
for
an

temperature
it
will
be

necessary
to

add
0

for

signs
or

leakage
Discon

nect

the

and
blow

through
them
with

compressed
air
to

make
sure

they
are
not

is

driven

by
the

and

injects
clean
mtered
air
into
the
exhaust

port
of
each

cylinder
The
clean
air
combines
with
unbumt

gases

as

they
are

expelled
into
the
exhaust
manifolds
and
reduces
the

emissions
to
below
the

permissible
level

required
by

laws

A
modified
carburettor
and
distributor
is
fitted
with
this

type
of

system
The
air

When
decelerating
the
mixture
in

the
intake
manifold
is
too
rich
to
bum
and

ignites
as
it
combines

with
air

injected
by
the

The
valve
shuts
off

the
air
delivered

SI2
to
the

valve
is
located

between
the
air

pump
and

nozzle
and
is
fitted
to

prevent
a

pressure
as
It

will

at
high

or
if
the

pump
drive
belt
fails

A
relief
valve
is
mounted
in
the

discharge
cavity
of
the
air

pump
and
is

incorporated
to

hold
the
exhaust

gas
temperatures

to
a
minimum
to
minimize

any
loss
of

power
caused

by
the
air

injection

system
and
to

protect
the

pump
from
excessive
back

pressures

Testing

The

following
tests
should

be
carried
out
to
make
sure
that

the
exhaust
emission
control

system
is

operating
correctly
The

engine
must

be
at
normal

operating

temperature
to

perfonn
the

tests
Before
the

system
can
be
tested
the

engine
itself
must
be

checked
to

ensure
that
It
is
functioning
correctly
Disconnect

the
ant
backflTe
valve

sensing
hose
and
insert
a

plug
into
the

hose
to
close
the

passage
to
the
intake
manifold
Make
sure
that

the

engine
operates
normally
and
then

reconnect
the

parts

Testing
the
check
valve

Run
the

engine
until
it
reaches
its
nonnal

operating
tem

pemture
and
check
all
hoses
and
connectors
for

signs
of
leakage

Disconnect
the
air

supply
hose
from
the
check
valve
and

check
the
position
of
the

plate
inside
the
valve
body
The

plate

should
be

lightly
positioned
against
the
valve
seat
and
away
from

the
air
distributor
manifold
Insert
a
suitable
probe
into
the

valve
and

depress
the

plate
When
released
the

plate
should

return

freely
to
its

position
against
the
valve
seat

Leave
the
hose
disconnected
and
start

the

engine
Slowly

increase
the

engine
speed
to
1500
r

p
m
and
examine
the
valve

to

make
sure
that
the
exhaust

gases
are
not

leaking
The
valve

may
flutter
or
vibrate
at

idling
speed
but
this
is

quite
nonnal

Renew
the
valve
if

necessary

Testing
the
ant

backftre
valve

Run
the

engine
until
it
reaches
its

normal
operating
tem

perature
Check
the
hoses
and
connections
for

signs
of

leakage

Rectify
any
leakage
before

testing
the
vaNe

Accelerate
the
engine
in
neutral
and
allow
the
throttle

to
close

quickly
The
valve
is

operating
correctly
if
the
exhaust

system
does
not
backfire

Further
test
can
be
made
with
the

by

pass
hose
to
the
air

pump
suction
line
disconnected
from
the

valve

Open
and
close
the
throttle
valve
rapidly
Hold
a

fInger

over
the
valve
outlet
and
check
that
air
flows
for
between
a

half
and
one
second
If
air
does
not

flow
or

alternatively
if
it

flows

continuously
for
more

than
two
seconds
the
valve
is

faulty
and
must
be
renewed

Disconnect
the
vacuum

sensing
hose
from
the
valve
Insert

a

suitable

plug
securely
into
the

hose
The
valve
is
not

functioning

correctly
if
the

idling

now
differs

excessively
from
the

speed
at

which
the
