The thermometer indicotes the temperoture
of the coolont with the ignition switched on.
The optimum operoting temperoture ronge is
from 75 to 105oC. In
SfOon 105 S, this
ronge
is identified by
the green

The fuel gouge
indicotes the level

12.2 ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND CABLE
The occelerotor pedol
forms o unit with its
self-lubricoting beoring ond the lever.
lt is
bolted to the f
loor tunnel. A coble possing
through the tunnel is ottoched to the pedol
lever ond the reloy
lever on the engine by
meons of clomps- The coble is protected
by
o Bowden tubing.
Pedol Removing ond Refitting
1. Loosen the clomp holding the coble on the
engine-mounted reloy lever. 2.
Remove the copscrews holding
down the
becrring with the pedol,
depress lightly the
pedol, ond lift it out of the f loor
tunnel together
with the beoring. 3. Disconnect the pedol
from the coble ofter
ioosening the clomp.
Removol ond Refitting of Bowden Tubing
ond Cqble
The Bowden tubing is
fostened to
the brocket
irr the floor tunnel by
meons of circlips. After
their removol, pull
the Bowden tubing inside
the cor. On ref
itting the tubing, lubricote it with
o low-viscosity oil (of
the SAE 20
closs). lt hos
been lubricoted with greose
in the foctory.
Fit
the clonrps so thot their longer ports (from
the
screw to their end) ore on the side of the
I evers.
Accelerotor Coble Adiustment
Adjust the coble so
thot it is not
excessively
tensioned or too slock. Loosen the clomps on
the engine side of the coble, move slightly
the
clomp toword the reloy lever,
ond tighten the
screws of the clomp.
12.3 GEAR SHIFT LEVER
AND LINKAGE
The geor shift mechonism consists of two
units: the geor
lever with its housing ond oc-
cessories, ond the geor
shifter rod
ond the
shifter lirrk with joint
(ot the georbox)
for
domping the vibrotion of the power
pock
tronsnritted to the geor
lever.
Removing Geor Lever
Housing ond Link
1. Lift owoy the mot from the floor tunnel in
the front ond reor comportment. lf seporote,
remove the individuol floor mots ofter hoving
prised out their clips with o screwdriver or
o similor tool. lf o one-piece floor
covering is
used, remove the door sill strips
on one side,
tip the seot, ond bend over the
floor covering.
2. Remove the geor
lever housing copscrews
ond prise
out the lid (next
to the clip) between
the seots. Proceed through the
operture to dls-
connect the bolted connection of the link with
the housing shifter rod.
3. Lift
owoy the housing with the lever
through the operture. Swivel the lever so thot
the shifter rod
does not protrude
over the
housing beoring thus obstructiong the removol.
4. Usuolly it is not necessory to remove the

When it is roining or when woshing the cor,

foil is
supposed to prevent
the forming of under-
pressure in the cor interior ond to prevent
the woter from sooking the interior trims ond
running down into the cor. Therefore,
it hos
to be stuck on by rubber cement os shown
in Figs. 14.512 ond 14.5/3 (cross hotching).
First slip the lower port

Close both doors
on the side to be adjusted
and visually assess which areas of each door
require re-positioning to produce
an even
contour joining
the front and rear
wing body
lines in relation to the door
heights.
With careful adjustment of hinges, satisfactory
body lines
can be obtained.
Hinges can
be moved on the door pillar in
the
following ways.
1 . Up and down after slackening bolts.
Result:
height of door in relation to door ap_erture.
2. In and out after slackening bolts. Result:
Position of
the door leading edge in

a) Shims under
both hrnges moves
the door
rearwards and
increases the gap
between
the door leading
edge and the
wing
(Front door).
b) Shims under the bottom hinge
only, will
lift the lower edge
of the door.
c) Shims under the top
hinge only, will
have the reverse effect.
It is
sometimes preferable to remove
the door
catch (On pillar)
to remove misleading stresses
being placed
on the door. This part
being re-
fitted and adjusted so
that both stages of
the lock are
working and
ensuring door is not
being stressed by
excessive tension
up or
down, in or out.
Adjust the door
catch to ensure when
the door
is closed, it will
not ride up or down'
Ensure the door does not catch the door pillar,
wing, other door etc., when both are open or
closed.
Door top half
lf you-have correctly
adjusted the
bottom half
of thb door you
may find that the window frame
top half still needs an adjustment.
Here it will be necessary to
lower the moving
window and carefully bend the
frame of the
