USE OF THE MANUAL
PRESENTATION
The Repair Manual comes in a binder with a “Mu/to” type
mechanism to facilitate the filing of additive sheets
or the removal of a part for operation in the workshop.
The MECHANICAL COMPONENTS, PART 1 VOLUME (8531) covers operations on the MECHANlCAL
COMPONENTS and the BODYWORK which may be carried out by a general workshop.
It is divided into 15 chapters separated by vinyl tab inserts numbered @ to @

-
a) z T-r TiiTz
a) vehicle code letters: MA
b) three figure number identifying the assembly or the assembly part
c) figure indicating the type of operation:
-
the figures 000 indicate the vehicle specification
- the figures 00 indicate the assembly specification
- the figures 0 indicate checks and adjustments
- the figures 1 indicate removals and refittings
- the figures 2 indicate dismantling and re-assembly
-
the figures 3 indicate reconditioning
d) figure /I,... /2.../... standing for a variant,
e) letter: a, b, standing for an evolution

scl-ew, Fig. IV.
Slightly raise the power unit assembly
Screw tensioner 4061-T fully, Fig. VI and remove
the engine/gearbox assembly:
Before refitting the power unit assembly:
Check the condition of the engine mounting brac-
kets. Replace them if needed.
Adjustment to be tested,

Remove, Fig. I:
- the co~llrol cable frorn the cold start flap (I 1,
- hose

- the accelerator control rod and cable,
- cylinderhead cover (3).
Bring:
- the piston of cylinder No. 4 to TDC
(with the valves in the “rocking” position)
Make sure:
that mark “a” on the flywheel is facing the zero on
the clutch bell housing, Fig III.
Set:
the clearance of cylinder No. 1 inlet valve (4) to
1.50 mm, Fig II. Check:
cylinder 0. 1 valve clearance
The clearance should be of 0.30 to 0.75 mm.
Adjust:
the valve clearance:
INLET = 0.10 mm
EXHAUST = 0.25 mm
NOTE:
This check can be carried out with a dial gauge, as
shown on Fig. IV.
Fit:
