mountings to the front crossmember. Recover
the washers. 
3Raise the engine with a hoist or a suitable
protected jack until the mountings are free,
then remove them. 
4Fit the new mountings and lower the engine
onto them. 
5Fit the nuts and washers and tighten the
nuts. 
6Lower the vehicle.
Carburettor models 
The crankcase ventilation system consists
of the special oil filter cap (containing a steel
wool filter) and an oil separator and vent valve
on the left-hand side of the engine. This is
connected by hose to the inlet manifold. The
system operates according to the vacuum in
the inlet manifold. Air is drawn through the
filler cap, through the crankcase, and then
together with piston blow-by gasses through
the oil separator and vent valve to the inlet
manifold. The blow-by gases are then drawn
into the engine together with the fuel/air
mixture. Refer to Chapter 1 for maintenance of
the system.
Fuel-injection models
This system is closed, consisting of an oilseparator on the left-hand side of the engine
and a hose connecting it to the inlet air
trunking. Because the trunking is not subject
to manifold vacuum, no vent valve is needed.
1With the engine completely stripped, clean
all the components and examine them for
wear. Each part should be checked, and
where necessary renewed or renovated as
described in the following Sections. Renew
main and big end shell bearings as a matter of
course, unless you know that they have had
little wear and are in perfect condition.
2If in doubt as to whether to renew a
component which is still just serviceable,
consider the time and effort which will be
incurred should it fail at an early date.
Obviously the age and expected life of the
vehicle must influence the standards applied.
3Gaskets, oil seals and O-rings must all be
renewed as a matter of routine. Flywheel and
cylinder head bolts must be renewed because
of the high stresses to which they are
subjected.
4Take the opportunity to renew the engine
core plugs while they are easily accessible.
Knock out the old plugs with a hammer and
chisel or punch. Clean the plug seats, smear
the new plugs with sealant and tap them
squarely into position.1Unscrew the bolts and remove the oil pump
cover (see illustration).
2Using feeler blades check that the rotor
clearances are within the limits given in
Specifications (see illustrations). If not,
unbolt the pick-up tube and strainer and
obtain a new unit (see illustration).Fit the
pick-up tube and strainer to the new pump
using a new gasket, and tighten the bolts.
3If the oil pump is serviceable refit the cover
and tighten the bolts.
1Examine the bearing surfaces of the
crankshaft for scratches or scoring and, using
a micrometer, check each journal and
crankpin for ovality. Where this is found to be
in excess of 0.0254 mm (0.001 in) the
crankshaft will have to be reground and
undersize bearings fitted. 
2Crankshaft regrinding should be carried out
by a suitable engineering works, who will
normally supply the matching undersize main
and big-end shell bearings.

weatherstrips and remove the trim. Also
remove the webbing guide, which is secured
by two screws.
5Unbolt the lower anchor and the retractor,
again noting the position of any washers or
spacers. Remove the retractor and webbing
(see illustration).
6The seat belt buckle is secured to the seat
frame by two Torx screws(see illustration).
There is no need to renew the buckle just
because the retractor and webbing are being
renewed. If it is wished to remove the buckle,
first remove the seat.
7Refit by reversing the removal operations.
Tighten all anchorages to the specified torque,
and make sure that the belt is not twisted.1This Section describes the removal and
refitting of factory or dealer-installed rear seat
belts. A rear belt kit can be purchased from a
Ford dealer and should be found to
correspond with the items shown here. If a
proprietary kit is purchased, make sure it is
suitable for the vehicle in question and follow
the manufacturer’s instructions.
2Fold the rear seat cushion forwards.
3Feed the buckle webbing through the slits in
the carpet. Remove the buckle securing bolt,
remove the pins from the buckle elastic straps
and remove the buckles.
4Remove the lower anchor bolts, then fold
the seat backrests forwards. Fold back the
luggage area carpet and remove the backrest
hinges.
5Remove the seat back striker pins (low
series) or adjuster mechanism cover (high
series) (see illustration).
6Prise the webbing guides from each side
cushion.
7Remove the side cushions. Each one is
retained by a single nut and washer located
near the loudspeaker (see illustration). With
the nut and washer removed, the cushion is
then released by prising open the metal tags
which secure its bottom wire. Pull the bottom
of the cushion forwards and upwards to free it
from the retractor.
8The retractor can now be unbolted and thewebbing withdrawn through the side cushions.
9Commence refitting by fitting the retractor.
First fit the rear bolt and tighten it by a few
turns only, so that the retractor is still free to
move. Push the retractor rearwards and then
downwards so that it takes up its fitted
positions, then fit the front bolt. Tighten both
bolts to the specified torque.
10The remainder of refitting is a reversal of
the removal procedure. Tighten the belt and
buckle anchor bolts to the specified torque.
Cushion
1Fold the seat cushion forwards and remove
the hinge retaining screws (see illustration).
To remove the hinges as well, unbolt the
hinges from the body instead.
2When refitting, just nip up the hinge screws
or bolts and check the fit of the cushions.
Tighten the screws or bolts fully when
satisfied.
Backrests
3Fold the backrests forward and peel back
the carpet to expose the hinges (see
illustration).
4Remove the hinge screws, free the seat belt
webbing clips (when applicable) and remove
the backrests.
5Refit by reversing the removal operations.
