2. Adjustment of positive opening of 1st choke
butterfly (strangler flap fully closed ) :
Set strangler flap control lever ( 14 ) to
fully closed position.
Hold butterfly control lever ( 13 ) in closed
position so that stop (12) contacts edge of
lever ( 14 ).
Measure distance between the edge of the
first choke butterfly and the carburettor body.
This measurement must he :
a = 1.25? 0.05 mm
If not, adjust the positive opening distance of the
butterfly by means of adjusting stop ( 12 ). This
clearance should always he measured with ad-
justing stop lock-nut ( 11 ) fully tightened.
3. Adjustment of clearonce of strangler flap (13)
activated by vacuum capsule (10).
Actuate strangler flap control lever ( 14) and
maintain in fully closed position.
Fit VCICUUII~ gouge on V~CUUIII capsule ( 10 ).
With minimum v(~cu”m depression of 400 mm of Hq
the thrust lever (8 ) should come into contact with
stop (9 ). If not, replace YClCUUrn capsule ( 10 ).
With these setti”gs,meosureme”t (G a aa taken
between the edge of the strangler flap and the
bore must
be between 3.25 and 3.75 mm.
If not, adjust stop screw (3).

SUPPLEMENTARY AIR CONTROL ( 1 ) :
I’ / -...’ , _, ._,, ! .’ ! . .
At idling speed and when cold, the engine must produce more torque so as to counteract increased resistance
caused by friction. In addition to an enriched air fuel mixture, the engine also needs, when starting from cold
and during the warming-up period, to be supplied with supplementary air. The E.C.U. compensates for this
supplementary air by providing more fuel; the engine therefore has a larger amount of mixture at its disposal
to reach normal running temperature. The supplementary air control fitted in parallel with the throttle butterfly
supplies the supplementary air. The supplementary air control is heated only when the engine is running, and
its heater winding is supplied electrically as long as the ignition is switched on.
The location of the supplementary air control ‘on the engine block was selected for its good heat transfer charac-
teristics, and so as to subject the unit to the changing ambient temperature of the engine.
The opening section of the supplementary air control is automatically .adjusted according to the temperature, so
that the required idling speed is maintained regardless of engine temperature. When the latter increases, the air
channel is gradually reduced, until it is completely closed when the coolant temperature reaches approximately
+ 60” C. ->.:.. .-. : --.
,
The supplementary air control is situated at a representative spot fo.r engine running temperature. A bi-metal
spring actuates a rotary valve thereby altering the size of the air passage. Electric heating has the advantage
of allowing the. supplementary air to be adjusted at pre-set times. SWITCH ON THROTTLE BUTTERFLY SPINDLE :
,‘1 3 >_
The switch on the throttle butterfly spindle contains two contacts the idling speed contact, and the.full load contact.
The control contact, which.slides along a slot, closes the idling speed contact or the full load contact for a given
position of ‘the butterfly. The’ E.C.U. analyses the signals received so as to adjust the duration of injection.

3. Fuel pump feed ( with engine running ) : ( DIAGRAM 3 )
- Disconnect the E.C.U.
- Disconnect from the air-flow sensor the air hose to the butterfly housing
- Switch on the ignition:
- Actuate the air-flow sensor flap by hand’ when the petrol pump contact closes the pump should be heard
working.
If not, test the circuit using a
battery operated ohmmeter, without forgetting to test between terminal G 36 ))
on the air-flow sensor and terminal H 20 .)) on the E.C.U. for continuity ( The 2nd terminal is not connected
to the E.C.U. ).
- The resistance between terminals (( 86 b H and G 85 )) on the relay box f //j/nor thc~ I~./I. h<~ntllnr~tp ) must be
between 52 and 78 12.

If it is fitted the wrong way round. the port may be blocked.
- The resistance between terminals (( 34 1, and (( 48 )) on the- supplementary air control must be 50 Q approx-
- Visual checking the port on the supplementary air control must be open when the engine is cold, and closed
when the engine temperature is above 60” C
- With the engine cold. if the air pipe to the supplementary air control is flattened the engine rpm must decrease.
With the engine warm, if the air pipe is disconnected, the engine must accelerate.

- Disconnect the E.C.U.
- Using an ohmmeter check the continuity of circuits (( 6 )a, H 7 )) (( 8 H and (( 9 )) linking the air-flow sensor to
the multiple terminal board. as well as the continuity between each of the terminals
- The air-flow meter does not require any maintenance. It is not necessary to oil the flop. It must work without
high spot or catching
When the air-flow sensor is removed blank off the ducts so OS to protect it from dust
- Check the air circuit for air-tightness.
6. Resistors and injectors :
- A dirty injector may cause o lock of power. or on unstable idling speed.
- It is possible to test the functioning of the injectors with the engine idling by disconnecting each injector
in turn the engine rpm should decrease each time.
- Disconnect the E C U
- The resistance of an injector is 2 to 3 II.
- Each supplementary resistance is 5 to 7 R
- The volume delivered by an injector ( kept constantly open and under the normal operating pressure ) is
approximately 200 cm3 /min ( 12 25 cu in/min )-
- If the rubber pipe on one of the injectors appears wet on the outside, the injector must be replaced.
- Using an ohmmeter, check the continuity of the circuits

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine ANNEXE : C CHECKING THE FUEL CIRCUIT AND PRESSURE
- Remove the cold-start injector ( 1) and carefully
remove its petrol feed pipe.
- Connect pressure gauge ( 2) onto the cold-start
injector petrol line.
- Fit the cold-start injector zmto the manifold.
- Run the engine at idling speed the petrol pressure
must be regulated to 2 bars ( 29 psi ).
- Disconnect the vticuum pipe ( 3 i from the pressure
regulator the regulated pressure must be 2.5 bars
i 36 l/4 psi ).
If one of the readings is incorrect, check condition
of the flexible vacuum pipe for the pressure
regulator. as well as its aspect. If it is satisfactory
replace the pressure requlotor after making sure
that its VCICUU~ pipe is not blocked totally or
partially at the manifold end.
With the engine stopped, the pressure must
remain stable at 2 bars ( 23 psi ); if not, check
for a leak which could be found at the cold-start
injector, one of the main injectors. or at the level
of the pressure regulator valve diaphragm.
