“LE JETRONIC” ELECTRONIC FUEL
INJECTION SYSTEM
“LE Jetronic” system
The “LE Jetronic” IS a fuel injectiorl system which injects Intermittently petrol, at low pressure, into the inlet rnanifold
The main characteristic of the device IS to rneter drrectly the air drawn in by the engine, which is the only reference
for the fuel quantity to be injected. The fuel metering IS carried out by electro-magnetically triggered injectors. These
are under a constant fuel pressure.
The quantrty of fuel injected depends on how long the Injectors remain open. The duration of opening is optimally
determined for each engine operating phase by an electronic control unit, from data supplied by various electric
sensors.
The “LE Jetronic” device is composed of:
No.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
THE INJECTION SYSTEM
III. - ADJUSTING THE ROTO-DIESEL INJECTION PUMP CONTROLS
DPC type pump from engine M 25/648, Fig. I
DPA type pump from engine M 25/660, Fig. II
Checking the fast-idle control
Ensure that lever (7) is against its stop, by pushing
it in the direction of arrow (-).
If not, adjust tension of cab/e by means of cable end
clamp (6). Complete tightening of cable using sheath
tensioner (41.
Checking the fast-idle control
Make sure that the cable is slack.
If not, check the operation of the thermal sensor (101
located on the water outlet duct: the cable must ope-
rate over a range of 6 mm between its “ENGINE
COLD” and “ENGINE WARM” positions.
Adjusting the accelerator control
Engine stopped:
Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
Check that lever (I) is against stop (2).
If not, move pin (3) of accelerator cable.
Make sure that, at idle, lever (I) is against stop (5).
Adjusting the anti-stalling device
Engine running:
Insert a 1.5 mm thick shim (DPC pump, Fig. I)
2 mm thick shim (DPA pump, Fig. II)
between lever (I) and stop-screw (5) at “b”.
Place a 3 mm dia. rod through the hole in lever (7)
at “a” by pushing STOP lever (9) outwards. Set the engine speed to:
800 t 50 rpm (DPC pump)
800 f 25 rpm (DPA pump)
by turning stop screw (5).
Remove the 3 mm dia. rod and the shim
Adjust the idling speed to:
800 + 25 rpm
by turning stop screw (8).
Checking the engine deceleration:
Accelerate the engine to 3.000 rpm, then release the
accelerator lever sharply.
- if the deceleration is too fast (engine often stalling),
unscrew stop-screw (5) by 114 turn,
- if the deceleration is too slow (poor engine braking),
screw up stop-screw (51 by l/4 turn.
In both cases, check the idling speed and adjust if
necessary.
If the malfunction continues to exist, carry out the
adjustments again.
Check the efficiency of the mechanically operated
STOP control (9).
Note: The setting figures are identical if the vehicle
is equipped with air-conditioning and the adjustments
are to be effected with the air-conditioning off.
