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

To Remove Front BumPer
Disconnect the
leods of the horn ond front
direction indicotors. Remove bolts connecting
the side sections of
the bumper with the wings
ond bolts of the bumper brockets, connecting
them to the wheel splosh guords. Now

on the side edge of the body post,
in the chon'
nel next to the boot, ond in the forebody under
the heodlomp.
To Reinstqll Front Wing
lf the seol strip in the front
Port of the wing
is domoged, reploce it with o new one, ond
stick it on if it hos got
unstuck. Pock olwoys
o new seoling strip between the wing edge ond

Prising off Door Ponel
When it is roining or when woshing the cor,
woter runs down the gloss
ond penetrotes
into the inner spoce of the door. The
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
of the insulotion
(foil), the inner end, inside the door, ond
then opply o seoling compound on to
the
door inner metol-sheet ponel
ond the insu-
lotion os indicoted in the illustrotion (block
dots ) .
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
relation to bodY aPerture'
3. Shims Pt.
No. 1 13-98B9OO between
hinges and pillar
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
window to match the frame
of the door'

Repair of Window Regulator Defects
lf the windows are difficult to wind up and
down (the
maximum torque applied on the
spindle of the window regulator with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds 2.5 Nm) (1.77
tt
lbs), it is recommended that the following steps
are taken as regards both the front
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect the regulator driving plate
from
the window glass
channel. Push the glass
upward
and try the relieved regulator by turning the
regulator crank. lf the regulator does not work
smoothly (jamming,
rattling) or if
a torque higher
than O.7 Nm/(O.495 ft lbs) in front and 1.1
Nm/(0.78 ft lbs) in the rear is required for its
operation, replace the whole regulator with a new
one working satisfactorily.
2. Adjust the centre pillar position
in the door
using the jig
as per
drawing No. A1-1 5417-S.
Loosen the top screw of the centre pillar
and
retighten it while pressing
the centre pillar
against the window glass
wound up to its upper-
most position.
Loosen the bottom screw of the
centre pillar
and retighten it while pressing
the
centre pillar
against the
window glass. 5417

-l! L
3. When bolting together the regulator driving
plate with the window glass
channel make sure
that the holes in these two parts
coincide along
the whole length of the channel. lf it is not so,
move the
channel into a satisfactory position.
4. lf the regulator is
not lubricated, lubricate the
regulator cable in the
tubing with grease
and
apply oil to the regulator
crank spindle.
To Remove ond Reinstoll Reor Door Fixed
Window
Agoin remove first the door trimming. The
gloss is only inserted
into the door frome ond
supported by o bolted-down holder with o rub-
ber pocking piece.
The gloss
con be moved in
the door
covity ond withdrown through the
door frome.
14.7 TRIMMING UPHOLSTERY AND WEATHERSTRIPS
Ponel-type Trimming
This type of trimming is used for
the doors -
see Chopter 14.5, Fig.14.511- ond for
the front
ond reor window posts.
Ponel-type trimming
fostened by clips (flexible
spocing pins)
covers
olso the porcel
troy below the reor window, the
outer guideroils
of the front seots, the front
wheel orches, ond the focia. On centre posts,
the trimming is fostened by screws.

The seat belts have
anchoring bolts
on the size 7/16-20 UNF-2A'
In f ront, the anchoring threads

accessible being provided
on the door posts
(remove only one of the pair
of pins
covering the
thread), on sills
below the posts,
and on
the sides
of the'floor tunnel
behind the front seats'
Anchoring points
for rear seat belts are shown
in the illustation. For the seat
belt of the person
sitting in the
middle, the threads are under the
seat cushions and rather removed from each other
(A3). For the seat belts of persons
occupying the
butside places
the threads are also under the
cushions, nearer to the centre (A2),
in the body
sides close to the cusions (82),
and in window
pillars (C2). These latter threads can be found by
touch in the point
of intersection of the plane
passing about 165 mm
above the
rear window
parcel tray and in parallel
with the door frame at a
distance of about 85 mm. To gain
access to
them,
it is necessary to cut through the trimming.
We must stress that for the fitting of points A2
and A3, the bolts should not protrude
beyond the Fig.M.11l2
