1989 FORD FIESTA Service Repair Manual

1 General information andprecautions
General information
The fuel system consists of a fuel tank
(mounted under the body, beneath the rear
seats), fuel hoses, an electric fuel pump
mounted in the fuel tank, and a sequential
electronic fuel injection system.
The electric fuel pump supplies fuel under
pressure to the fuel rail, which distributes fuel
evenly to all injectors. A pressure regulator
controls the system pressure in relation to
inlet tract depression. From the fuel rail, fuel is
injected into the inlet ports, just above the
inlet valves, by four fuel injectors. The system
also includes features such as the flushing of
fresh (ie, cold) fuel around each injector on
start-up, thus improving hot starts. The amount of fuel supplied by the injectors
is precisely controlled by the EEC IV engine
management module. The module uses the
signals derived from the crankshaft position
sensor and the camshaft position sensor, to
trigger each injector separately in cylinder
firing order (sequential injection), with benefits
in terms of better fuel economy and lower
exhaust emissions. The EEC IV module is the heart of the entire
engine management system, controlling the
fuel injection, ignition and emissions control
systems. The module receives information
from various sensors which is then computed
and compared with pre-set values stored in
it’s memory, to determine the required period
of injection. Information on crankshaft position and
engine speed is generated by a crankshaft
position sensor. The inductive head of the
sensor runs just above the engine flywheel
and scans a series of 36 protrusions on the
flywheel periphery. As the crankshaft rotates,
the sensor transmits a pulse to the system’s
ignition module every time a protrusion
passes it. There is one missing protrusion in
the flywheel periphery at a point
corresponding to 90° BTDC. The ignition
module recognises the absence of a pulse
from the crankshaft position sensor at this
point to establish a reference mark for
crankshaft position. Similarly, the time interval
between absent pulses is used to determine
engine speed. This information is then fed to
the EEC IV module for further processing. The camshaft position sensor is located in
the cylinder head so that it registers with a
lobe on the camshaft. The camshaft position
sensor functions in the same way as the
crankshaft position sensor, producing a series
of pulses; this gives the EEC IV module a
reference point, to enable it to determine the
firing order, and operate the injectors in the
appropriate sequence. The mass air flow sensor is based on a “hot-
wire” system, sending the EEC IV module a constantly-varying (analogue) voltage signal
corresponding to the mass of air passing into
the engine. Since air mass varies with
temperature (cold air being denser than warm),
measuring air mass provides the module with
a very accurate means of determining the
correct amount of fuel required to achieve the
ideal air/fuel mixture ratio.
Engine temperature information is supplied by
the coolant temperature sensor. This
component is an NTC (Negative Temperature
Coefficient) thermistor - that is, a semi-
conductor whose electrical resistance
decreases as its temperature increases. It
provides the EEC IV module with a constantly-
varying (analogue) voltage signal, corresponding
to the temperature of the engine coolant. This is
used to refine the calculations made by the
module, when determining the correct amount
of fuel required to achieve the ideal air/fuel
mixture ratio. Inlet air temperature information is supplied
by the inlet air temperature sensor. This
component is also an NTC thermistor - see
the previous paragraph - providing the
module with a signal corresponding to the
temperature of air passing into the engine.
This is used to refine the calculations made by
the module, when determining the correct
amount of fuel required to achieve the ideal
air/fuel mixture ratio. A throttle position sensor is mounted on the
end of the throttle valve spindle, to provide
the EEC IV module with a constantly-varying
(analogue) voltage signal corresponding to the
throttle opening. This allows the module to
register the driver’s input when determining
the amount of fuel required by the engine.
Road speed is monitored by the vehicle
speed sensor. This component is a Hall-effect
generator, mounted on the transmission’s
speedometer drive. It supplies the module
with a series of pulses corresponding to the
vehicle’s road speed, enabling the module to
control features such as the fuel shut-off on
overrun.
Where power steering is fitted, a pressure-
operated switch is screwed into the power
steering system’s high-pressure pipe. The
switch sends a signal to the EEC IV module to
reduce engine speed should the power
steering fluid pressure become excessively
high.
The oxygen sensor in the exhaust system
provides the module with constant feedback -
“closed-loop” control - which enables it to
adjust the mixture to provide the best possible
conditions for the catalytic converter to
operate. The air inlet side of the system consists of
an air cleaner housing, the mass air flow
sensor, an inlet hose and duct, and a throttle
housing. The throttle valve inside the throttle housing
is controlled by the driver, through the
accelerator pedal. As the valve opens, the
amount of air that can pass through the
system increases. As the throttle valve opens further, the mass air flow sensor signal alters,
and the EEC IV module opens each injector
for a longer duration, to increase the amount
of fuel delivered to the inlet ports.
Both the idle speed and mixture are under
the control of the EEC IV module, and cannot
be adjusted. Not only can they not be
adjusted, they cannot even be checked,
except with the use of special Ford diagnostic
equipment.
Precautions
Warning: Petrol is extremely
flammable - great care must be
taken when working on any part
of the fuel system. Do not
smoke or allow any naked flames or
uncovered light bulbs near the work area.
Note that gas powered domestic
appliances with pilot flames, such as
heaters, boilers and tumble dryers, also
present a fire hazard - bear this in mind if
you are working in an area where such
appliances are present. Always keep a
suitable fire extinguisher close to the work
area and familiarise yourself with its
operation before starting work. Wear eye
protection when working on fuel systems
and wash off any fuel spilt on bare skin
immediately with soap and water. Note
that fuel vapour is just as dangerous as
liquid fuel; a vessel that has just been
emptied of liquid fuel will still contain
vapour and can be potentially explosive.
Petrol is a highly dangerous and volatile
liquid, and the precautions necessary
when handling it cannot be overstressed. Many of the operations described in this
Chapter involve the disconnection of fuel
lines, which may cause an amount of fuel
spillage. Before commencing work, refer
to the above Warning and the information
in “Safety first” at the beginning of this
manual. When working with fuel system
components, pay particular attention to
cleanliness - dirt entering the fuel system
may cause blockages which will lead to
poor running.
Note: Residual pressure will remain in the fuel
lines long after the vehicle was last used,
when disconnecting any fuel line, it will be
necessary to depressurise the fuel system as
described in Section 2 .

7 Fuel pump/fuel pressure-
checking
3
Note: Refer to the warning note in Section 1
before proceeding.
Fuel pump operation check
1 Switch on the ignition, and listen for the fuel
pump (the sound of an electric motor running,
audible from beneath the rear seats).
Assuming there is sufficient fuel in the tank,
the pump should start and run for
approximately one or two seconds, then stop,
each time the ignition is switched on. Note:If
the pump runs continuously all the time the
ignition is switched on, the electronic control
system is running in the backup (or “limp-
home”) mode referred to by Ford as “Limited
Operation Strategy” (LOS). This almost
certainly indicates a fault in the EEC IV module
itself, and the vehicle should therefore be
taken to a Ford dealer for a full test of the
complete system, using the correct diagnostic
equipment; do not waste time or risk
damaging the components by trying to test
the system without such facilities.
2 Listen for fuel return noises from the fuel
pressure regulator. It should be possible to
feel the fuel pulsing in the regulator and in the
feed hose from the fuel filter.
3 If the pump does not run at all, check the
fuse, relay and wiring (see Chapter 12). Check
also that the fuel cut-off switch has not been
activated and if so, reset it.
Fuel pressure check
4 A fuel pressure gauge will be required for
this check and should be connected in the
fuel line between the fuel filter and the fuel rail,
in accordance with the gauge maker’s
instructions. On Zetec engines, a pressure
gauge equipped with an adapter to suit the
Schrader-type valve on the fuel rail pressure
test/release fitting (identifiable by its blue
plastic cap, and located on the union of the
fuel feed line and the fuel rail) will be required.
If the Ford special tool 29-033 is available, the
tool can be attached to the valve, and a
conventional-type pressure gauge attached to
the tool.
5 If using the service tool, ensure that its tap
is turned fully anti-clockwise, then attach it to
the valve. Connect the pressure gauge to the
service tool. If using a fuel pressure gauge
with its own adapter, connect it in accordance
with its maker’s instructions.
6 Start the engine and allow it to idle. Note
the gauge reading as soon as the pressure
stabilises, and compare it with the regulated
fuel pressure figures listed in the
Specifications .
a) If the pressure is high, check for a
restricted fuel return line. If the line is
clear, renew the fuel pressure regulator.
b) If the pressure is low, pinch the fuel return
line. If the pressure now goes up, renew the fuel pressure regulator. If the pressure
does not increase, check the fuel feed
line, the fuel pump and the fuel filter.
7 Detach the vacuum hose from the fuel
pressure regulator; the pressure shown on the
gauge should increase. Note the increase in
pressure, and compare it with that listed in the
Specifications . If the pressure increase is not
as specified, check the vacuum hose and
pressure regulator.
8 Reconnect the regulator vacuum hose, and
switch off the engine. Verify that the hold
pressure stays at the specified level for five
minutes after the engine is turned off.
9 Carefully disconnect the fuel pressure
gauge, depressurising the system first as
described in Section 2. Be sure to cover the
fitting with a rag before slackening it. Mop up
any spilt petrol.
10 Run the engine, and check that there are
no fuel leaks.
8 Fuel tank - removal,
inspection and refitting
3
Proceed as described in Part A, Section 8,
but before disconnecting the battery, relieve
the residual pressure in the fuel system (see
Section 2), and equalise tank pressure by
removing the fuel filler cap.
9 Fuel pump/fuel gauge sender unit - removal and
refitting
3
Refer to Part B, Section 9.
10 Fuel tank ventilation tube -
removal and refitting
3
Refer to Part A, Section 10, but note that
the ventilation tube connects to the combined
roll-over/anti-trickle-fill valve assembly but,
instead of venting to atmosphere, a further
tube runs the length of the vehicle to the
evaporative emission control system carbon canister in the front right-hand corner of the
engine compartment.
Further information on the evaporative
emission control system is contained in Part E
of this Chapter.

and gasket. Discard the gasket - this must be
renewed whenever it is disturbed.
7Refit in the reverse order of removal. Check
that the mating faces are clean, and fit a new
gasket. Adjust the accelerator cable as
described in Section 5 on completion.
Fuel rail and injectors
Note: The following procedure is applicable
mainly to Zetec engines; specific information
for the PTE engine was not available at the
time of writing. However, apart from minor
differences in component attachments, both
engine types are very similar in this area.
8 Relieve the residual pressure in the fuel
system (see Section 2), and equalise tank
pressure by removing the fuel filler cap. Warning: This procedure will
merely relieve the increased
pressure necessary for the
engine to run - remember that
fuel will still be present in the system
components, and take precautions
accordingly before disconnecting any of
them.
9 Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
- see Chapter 5A, Section 1.
10 Remove the air inlet components as
described in Section 4.
11 Disconnect the accelerator cable from the
throttle linkage (see Section 5).
12 Disconnect the throttle position sensor
multi-plug.
13 Remove the throttle housing mounting
screws, then detach the throttle housing and gasket from the inlet manifold. Discard the
gasket - this must be renewed whenever it is
disturbed.
14
Detach the crankcase breather hose from
the cylinder head cover, and the fuel pressure
regulator vacuum hose from the inlet
manifold.
15 Releasing the wire clips, unplug the four
fuel injector multi-plugs and the inlet air
temperature sensor multi-plug.
16 Refer to Section 3 and disconnect the fuel
feed and return lines at the quick-release
couplings, then unclip the fuel hoses from the
inlet manifold; use rag to soak up any spilt
fuel. Note: Do not disturb the threaded
couplings at the fuel rail unions unless
absolutely necessary; these are sealed at the
factory. The quick-release couplings will
suffice for all normal service operations.
17 Unscrew the three bolts securing the fuel
rail (see illustration) . Withdraw the rail,
carefully prising it out of the inlet manifold,
and draining any remaining fuel into a suitable
clean container. Note the seals between the
rail noses and the manifold; these must be
renewed whenever the rail is removed (see
illustration) .
18 Clamping the rail carefully in a vice fitted
with soft jaws, unscrew the two bolts securing
each injector, and withdraw the injectors (see
illustration) . Place each in a clean, clearly-
labelled storage container.
19 If the injector(s) are being renewed,
discard the old injector, the nose seal and the
O- rings. If only the injector O-rings are being renewed, and it is intended that the same
injectors will be re-used, remove the old nose
seal and O-rings, and discard them.
20
Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, noting the following points:
a) Lubricate each nose seal and O-ring with clean engine oil on installation.
b) Locate each injector carefully in the fuel
rail recess, ensuring that the locating tab
on the injector head fits into the slot
provided in the rail. Tighten the bolts
securely.
c) Fit a new seal to each fuel rail nose, and
ensure that the seals are not displaced as
the rail is refitted (see illustration).
Ensure that the fuel rail is settled fully in
the manifold before tightening the bolts.
d) Ensure that the hoses and wiring are
routed correctly, and secured on
reconnection by any clips or ties
provided.
e) Adjust the accelerator cable as described
in Section 5.
f) On completion, switch the ignition on and off five times, to activate the fuel pump
and pressurise the system, without
cranking the engine. Check for signs of
fuel leaks around all disturbed unions and
joints before attempting to start the
engine.
Fuel pressure regulator
21 Relieve the residual pressure in the fuel
system (see Section 2), and equalise tank
pressure by removing the fuel filler cap.
Warning: This procedure will
merely relieve the increased
pressure necessary for the
engine to run - remember that
fuel will still be present in the system
components, and take precautions
accordingly before disconnecting any of
them.
22 Disconnect the battery negative (earth)
lead - see Chapter 5A, Section 1.
23 Disconnect the vacuum hose from the
regulator.
24 Unscrew the two regulator retaining bolts
(see illustration) then use a wad of clean rag
to soak up any spilt fuel, and withdraw the
regulator.

25Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, noting the following points: a) Renew the regulator sealing O-ring
whenever the regulator is disturbed.
Lubricate the new O-ring with clean
engine oil on installation.
b) Locate the regulator carefully in the fuel
rail recess, and tighten the bolts securely.
c) On completion, switch the ignition on and off five times, to activate the fuel pump
and pressurise the system, without
cranking the engine. Check for signs of
fuel leaks around all disturbed unions and
joints before attempting to start the
engine.
Idle speed control valve
26 Disconnect the battery negative (earth)
lead (refer to Chapter 5A, Section 1).
27 Disconnect the valve’s wiring multi-plug
(see illustration) .
28 Unscrew the three retaining bolts, and
withdraw the valve from the inlet manifold.
29 Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, noting the following points: a) Clean the mating surfaces carefully, and
always fit a new gasket whenever the
valve is disturbed.
b) Once the wiring and battery are
reconnected, start the engine and allow it
to idle. When it has reached normal
operating temperature, check that the idle
speed is stable, and that no induction (air)
leaks are evident. Switch on all electrical loads (headlights, heated rear window,
etc), and check that the idle speed is still
satisfactory.
Mass air flow sensor

Unplug the electrical connectors at the
camshaft position sensor and the coolant
temperature sensor, then unclip the wiring
from the ignition coil bracket, and secure it to
the manifold.
17Remove the three screws securing the
wiring “rail” to the rear of the manifold.
Releasing its wire clip, unplug the large
electrical connector (next to the fuel pressure
regulator) to disconnect the wiring of the
manifold components from the engine wiring
loom.
18 Marking or labelling them as they are
unplugged, disconnect the vacuum hoses at
the manifold and throttle housing.
19 Undo the fuel feed and return lines
connecting the engine to the chassis. Plug or
cap all open fittings. 20
Unbolt the earth lead from the cylinder
head rear support plate/engine lifting eye,
then unscrew the bolt securing the support
plate/lifting eye.
21 Unscrew the nuts and bolts securing the
manifold to the cylinder head, and withdraw it.
Take care not to damage vulnerable
components as the manifold assembly is
manoeuvred out of the engine compartment.
22 With the manifold removed, clean all
traces of the old gasket from the mating
surfaces of the manifold and the cylinder head.
Refitting
All engines
23 Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, noting the following points: a) Fit a new gasket, then locate the manifold on the head and install the nuts and bolts.
b) Tighten the nuts/bolts in three or four
equal steps to the specified torque,
working from the centre outwards, to
avoid warping the manifold.
c) Refit the remaining parts in the reverse order of removal - tighten all fasteners to
the torque wrench settings specified
(where given).
d) Where drained, refill the cooling system
as described in Chapter 1.
e) Before starting the engine, check the accelerator cable for correct adjustment
and the throttle linkage for smooth
operation (Section 5).
f) When the engine is fully warmed-up,
check for signs of fuel, inlet and/or
vacuum leaks.

1 General information
Exhaust system
The exhaust system is composed of an
exhaust manifold, the front downpipe and
catalytic converter (where fitted), and a main
section incorporating two silencers. The
service replacement exhaust system consists
of three sections: the front downpipe/catalytic
converter, the intermediate pipe and front
silencer, and the tailpipe and rear silencer.
The system is suspended throughout its entire
length by rubber mountings.
Emission control systems
To minimise pollution of the atmosphere
from incompletely-burned and evaporating
gases, and to maintain good driveability and fuel economy, a number of emissions control
systems are used on these vehicles. They
include the following:
a) The engine management system
(comprising both fuel and ignition sub-
systems) itself.
b) Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system.
c) Evaporative emissions control (EVAP) system.
d) Pulse-air (PAIR) system.
e) Catalytic converter. The operation of the systems is described
in the following paragraphs.
Positive crankcase ventilation system
The function of the crankcase ventilation
system is to reduce the emissions of
unburned hydrocarbons from the crankcase,
and to minimise the formation of oil sludge. By
ensuring that a depression is created in the
crankcase under most operating conditions,
particularly at idle, and by positively inducing fresh air into the system, the oil vapours and
“blow-by” gases collected in the crankcase
are drawn from the crankcase, through the air
cleaner or oil separator, into the inlet tract, to
be burned by the engine during normal
combustion.
On HCS engines, the system consists of a
vented oil filler cap (with an integral mesh
filter) and a hose connecting it to a connector
on the underside of the air cleaner housing. A
further hose leads from the adapter/filter to
the inlet manifold. Under conditions of idle
and part-load, the emissions gases are
directed into the inlet manifold, and dispensed
with in the combustion process. Additional air
is supplied through two small orifices next to
the mushroom valve in the air cleaner
housing, the object of which is to prevent high
vacuum build-up. Under full-load conditions,
when the inlet manifold vacuum is weak, the
mushroom valve opens, and the emissions
are directed through the air cleaner housing
