1989 FORD FIESTA Service Repair Manual

into the engine induction system and thence
into the combustion chambers. This
arrangement eliminates any fuel mixture
control problems. The operating principles for
the system used on the Endura-E engine are
basically the same as just described with
revisions to the component locations and
hose arrangement.On CVH and PTE engines, a closed-circuit
type crankcase ventilation system is used, the
function of which is basically the same as that
described for the HCS engine type, but the
breather hose connects directly to the rocker
cover. The oil filler cap incorporates a
separate filter in certain applications. On Zetec engines, the crankcase ventilation
system main components are the oil
separator mounted on the front (radiator) side
of the cylinder block/crankcase, and the
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve set
in a rubber grommet in the separator’s left-
hand upper end. The associated pipework
consists of a crankcase breather pipe and two
flexible hoses connecting the PCV valve to a
union on the left-hand end of the inlet
manifold, and a crankcase breather hose
connecting the cylinder head cover to the air
cleaner assembly. A small foam filter in the air
cleaner prevents dirt from being drawn
directly into the engine.
Evaporative emissions control system
This system is fitted to minimise the escape
of unburned hydrocarbons into the
atmosphere. Fuel evaporative emissions
control systems are limited on vehicles
meeting earlier emissions regulations;
carburettor float chambers are vented
internally, whilst fuel tanks vent to atmosphere
through a combined roll-over/anti-trickle-fill
valve. On vehicles meeting the more stringent
emissions regulations, the fuel tank filler cap
is sealed, and a charcoal canister is used to
collect and store petrol vapours generated in
the tank when the vehicle is parked. When the
engine is running, the vapours are cleared
from the canister (under the control of the
EEC IV engine management module via the
canister-purge solenoid valve) into the inlet
tract, to be burned by the engine during
normal combustion. To ensure that the engine runs correctly
when it is cold and/or idling, and to protect
the catalytic converter from the effects of an
over-rich mixture, the canister-purge solenoid
valve is not opened by the EEC IV module
until the engine is fully warmed-up and
running under part-load; the solenoid valve is
then switched on and off, to allow the stored
vapour to pass into the inlet tract.
Pulse-air system
This system consists of the pulse-air
solenoid valve, the pulse-air valve itself, the
delivery tubing, a pulse-air filter, and on some
models, a check valve. The system injects
filtered air directly into the exhaust ports,
using the pressure variations in the exhaust
gases to draw air through from the filter housing; air will flow into the exhaust only
when its pressure is below atmospheric. The
pulse-air valve can allow gases to flow only
one way, so there is no risk of hot exhaust
gases flowing back into the filter.
The system’s primary function is raise
exhaust gas temperatures on start-up, thus
reducing the amount of time taken for the
catalytic converter to reach operating
temperature. Until this happens, the system
reduces emissions of unburned hydrocarbon
particles (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) by
ensuring that a considerable proportion of
these substances remaining in the exhaust
gases after combustion are burned up, either
in the manifold itself or in the catalytic
converter.
To ensure that the system does not upset
the smooth running of the engine under
normal driving conditions, it is linked by the
pulse-air solenoid valve to the EEC IV module,
so that it only functions during engine warm-
up, when the oxygen sensor is not influencing
the fuel/air mixture ratio.
Catalytic converter
Catalytic converters have been introduced
progressively on all models in the range, to
meet the various emissions regulations.
The catalytic converter is located in the
exhaust system, and operates in conjunction
with an exhaust gas oxygen sensor to reduce
exhaust gas emissions. The catalytic
converter uses precious metals (platinum and
palladium or rhodium) as catalysts to speed
up the reaction between the pollutants and
the oxygen in the vehicle’s exhaust gases, CO
and HC being oxidised to form H
2O and CO2and (in the three-way type of catalytic
converter) NO
xbeing reduced to N2. Note :
The catalytic converter is not a filter in the
physical sense; its function is to promote a
chemical reaction, but it is not itself affected
by that reaction. The converter consists of an element (or
“substrate”) of ceramic honeycomb, coated
with a combination of precious metals in such
a way as to produce a vast surface area over
which the exhaust gases must flow; the whole
being mounted in a stainless-steel box. A
simple “oxidation” (or “two-way”) catalytic
converter can deal with CO and HC only,
while a “reduction” (or “three-way”) catalytic
converter can deal with CO, HC and NO
x.
Three-way catalytic converters are further
sub-divided into “open-loop” (or
“unregulated”) converters, which can remove
50 to 70% of pollutants and “closed-loop”
(also known as “controlled” or “regulated”)
converters, which can remove over 90% of
pollutants.
In order for a closed-loop catalytic
converter to operate effectively, the air/fuel
mixture must be very accurately controlled,
and this is achieved by measuring the oxygen
content of the exhaust gas. The oxygen
sensor transmits information on the exhaust
gas oxygen content to the EEC IV engine management module, which adjusts the
air/fuel mixture strength accordingly.
The sensor has a built-in heating element
which is controlled by the EEC IV module, in
order to bring the sensor’s tip to an efficient
operating temperature as rapidly as possible.
The sensor’s tip is sensitive to oxygen, and
sends the module a varying voltage
depending on the amount of oxygen in the
exhaust gases; if the inlet air/fuel mixture is
too rich, the sensor sends a high-voltage
signal. The voltage falls as the mixture
weakens. Peak conversion efficiency of all
major pollutants occurs if the inlet air/fuel
mixture is maintained at the chemically-
correct ratio for the complete combustion of
petrol - 14.7 parts (by weight) of air to 1 part
of fuel (the “stoichiometric” ratio). The sensor
output voltage alters in a large step at this
point, the module using the signal change as
a reference point, and correcting the inlet
air/fuel mixture accordingly by altering the fuel
injector pulse width (injector opening time). Removal and refitting procedures for
the oxygen sensor are given in Parts B, C
and D of this Chapter according to fuel
system type.
2 Exhaust system - renewal
2
Warning: Inspection and repair
of exhaust system components
should be done only after
enough time has elapsed after
driving the vehicle to allow the system
components to cool completely. This
applies particularly to the catalytic
converter, which runs at very high
temperatures. Also, when working under
the vehicle, make sure it is securely
supported on axle stands.
If the exhaust system components are
extremely corroded or rusted together, they
will probably have to be cut from the exhaust
system. The most convenient way of
accomplishing this is to have a quick-fit
exhaust repair specialist remove the corroded
sections. Alternatively, you can simply cut off
the old components with a hacksaw. If you do
decide to tackle the job at home, be sure to
wear eye protection, to protect your eyes from
metal chips, and work gloves, to protect your
hands. If the production-fit system is still
fitted, it must be cut for the service-
replacement system sections to fit. The best
way of determining the correct cutting point is
to obtain the new centre or rear section first
then, with the old system removed, lay the
two side by side on the ground. It should now
be relatively easy to determine where the old
system needs to be cut, and it can be marked
accordingly. Remember to allow for the
overlap where the two sections will plug
together.

Here are some simple guidelines to apply
when repairing the exhaust system: a) Work from the back to the front when
removing exhaust system components
(see illustration) .
b) Apply penetrating fluid to the exhaust
system component fasteners, to make
them easier to remove.
c) Use new gaskets, rubber mountings and clamps.
d) Apply anti-seize compound to the threads
of all exhaust system fasteners
e) Note that on some models, the downpipe is secured to the manifold by two bolts,
with a coil spring, spring seat and self-
locking nut on each. On refitting, tighten
the nuts until they stop on the bolt
shoulders; the pressure of the springs will
then suffice to make a gastight joint. Do
not overtighten the nuts to cure a leak -
the bolts will shear. Renew the gasket and
the springs if a leak is found
(see
illustrations) .
f) Be sure to allow sufficient clearance between newly-installed parts and all
points on the underbody, to avoid overheating the floorpan, and possibly
damaging the interior carpet and
insulation. Pay particularly close attention
to the catalytic converter and its heat
shield.
Warning: The catalytic converter
operates at very high
temperatures, and takes a long
time to cool. Wait until it’s
completely cool before attempting to
remove the converter. Failure to do so
could result in serious burns.
3 Exhaust manifold - removal and refitting
3
Removal
Note: Never work on or near the exhaust
system and in particular, the catalytic
converter (where fitted), while it is still hot. If
this is unavoidable, wear thick gloves, and
protect yourself from burns should you
accidentally touch a hot exhaust component.
All engines except Zetec
Note: On turbocharged engines, removal and
refitting procedures for the exhaust manifold,
complete with turbocharger are given in
Part C, Section 20.

2The exhaust manifold is secured the
cylinder head by studs and nuts, and is
similarly attached to the exhaust downpipe. A
shroud/heat shield is bolted to the manifold,
to direct exhaust-heated air into the air inlet
system when the engine is cold. Access to the
exhaust manifold retaining nuts is gained by
first removing this shroud (see illustration).
3 On vehicles equipped with a pulse-air
system, remove the pulse-air piping as
described in Section 7.
4 Support the exhaust downpipe on a jack or
suitable blocks, and undo the downpipe-to-
manifold retaining nuts. Separate the pipe
from the manifold, and remove the gasket. On
catalytic converter-equipped vehicles with an
oxygen sensor fitted to the exhaust
downpipe, take care not to stretch the sensor
wiring; if necessary, disconnect the sensor’s
multi-plug.
5 Undo the retaining nuts, and withdraw the
manifold from the cylinder head studs.
Remove the manifold gasket.Zetec enginesNote: In addition to the new gasket and any
other parts, tools or facilities needed to carry
out this operation, a new plastic guide sleeve
will be required on reassembly.
6 Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
- see Chapter 5A, Section 1.
7 Remove the air inlet components as
described in Part D of this Chapter.
8 Drain the cooling system (see Chapter 1).
9 Disconnect the coolant hose and the
coolant pipe/hose from the thermostat
housing; secure them clear of the working
area.
10 Unbolt the exhaust manifold heat shield,
and withdraw both parts of the shield (see
illustration) .
11 While the manifold can be removed with
the pulse-air system components attached -
unbolt the filter housing and disconnect its
vacuum hose if this is to be done - it is easier
to remove the pulse-air assembly first, as
described in Section 7. 12
Unplug the oxygen sensor electrical
connector, to avoid straining its wiring.
Unscrew the nuts to disconnect the exhaust
system front downpipe from the manifold.
13 Remove the nuts and detach the manifold
and gasket (see illustration) . When removing
the manifold with the engine in the vehicle,
additional clearance can be obtained by
unscrewing the studs from the cylinder head;
a female Torx-type socket will be required.
14 Always fit a new gasket on reassembly, to
carefully-cleaned components. Do not
attempt to re-use the original gasket.
Inspection
15 Use a scraper to remove all traces of old
gasket material and carbon deposits from the
manifold and cylinder head mating surfaces.
Provided both mating surfaces are clean and
flat, a new gasket will be sufficient to ensure
that the joint is gastight. Do not use any kind
of exhaust sealant upstream of the catalytic
converter, where fitted.
16 Note that on some models, the downpipe is
secured to the manifold by two bolts, with a coil
spring, spring seat and self-locking nut on each.
On refitting, tighten the nuts until they stop on
the bolt shoulders; the pressure of the springs
will then suffice to make a gastight joint.
17 Do not overtighten the nuts to cure a leak -
the bolts will shear; renew the gasket and the
springs if a leak is found. The bolts themselves
are secured by spring clips to the manifold,
and can be renewed easily if damaged.
Refitting
18 Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, noting the following points: a) Position a new gasket over the cylinder head studs, and on Zetec engines, fit a
new plastic guide sleeve to the stud
nearest to the thermostat housing, so that
the manifold will be correctly located (see
illustration) . Do notrefit the manifold
without this sleeve.
b) Refit the manifold, and finger-tighten the
mounting nuts.
c) Working from the centre out, and in three or four equal steps, tighten the nuts to the
torque wrench settings given in the
Specifications.

d)Refit the remaining parts in the reverse
order of removal. Tighten all fasteners to
the specified torque wrench settings
where given.
e) Where drained, refill the cooling system (see Chapter 1).
f) Run the engine, and check for exhaust
leaks. Check the coolant level when fully
warmed-up to normal operating
temperature.
4 Catalytic converter - general
information and precautions
The catalytic converter is a reliable and
simple device, which needs no maintenance
in itself, but there are some facts of which an
owner should be aware if the converter is to
function properly for its full service life. a) DO NOT use leaded petrol in a vehicle equipped with a catalytic converter - the
lead will coat the precious metals,
reducing their converting efficiency, and
will eventually destroy the converter.
b) Always keep the ignition and fuel systems
well-maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer’s schedule (see Chapter 1).
c) If the engine develops a misfire, do not drive the vehicle at all (or at least as little
as possible) until the fault is cured.
d) DO NOT push - or tow-start the vehicle -
this will soak the catalytic converter in
unburned fuel, causing it to overheat
when the engine does start.
e) DO NOT switch off the ignition at high engine speeds, ie do not “blip” the
throttle immediately before switching off.
f) DO NOT use fuel or engine oil additives - these may contain substances harmful to
the catalytic converter.
g) DO NOT continue to use the vehicle if the
engine burns oil to the extent of leaving a
visible trail of blue smoke.
h) Remember that the catalytic converter
operates at very high temperatures. DO
NOT, therefore, park the vehicle in dry
undergrowth, over long grass or piles of
dead leaves, after a long run.
I) Remember that the catalytic converter is FRAGILE. Do not strike it with tools
during servicing work.
j) In some cases, a sulphurous smell (like
that of rotten eggs) may be noticed from
the exhaust. This is common to many
catalytic converter-equipped vehicles.
Once the vehicle has covered a few
thousand miles, the problem should
disappear. Low quality fuel with a high
sulphur content will exacerbate this effect.
k) The catalytic converter used on a well-
maintained and well-driven vehicle should
last for between 50 000 and
100 000 miles. If the converter is no
longer effective, it must be renewed.

ter 1.
8 Unbolt the oil separator from the cylinder
block/crankcase, and withdraw it; remove and
discard the gasket.
9 Flush out or renew the oil separator, as
required (see Chapter 1).
10 Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure, but use a new gasket between the
oil separator and cylinder block. Refill the
cooling system (see Chapter 1). Run the
engine, check for exhaust leaks, and check
the coolant level when it is fully warmed-up.
6 Evaporative emissions control system - checking

2Fuel loss or fuel odour can be caused by
liquid fuel leaking from fuel lines, a cracked or
damaged canister, an inoperative canister-
purge solenoid valve, or disconnected,
misrouted, kinked or damaged vapour or
control hoses.
3 Inspect each hose attached to the canister
for kinks, leaks and cracks along its entire
length. Repair or renew as necessary.
4 Inspect the canister. If it is cracked or
damaged, renew it. Look for fuel leaking from
the bottom of the canister. If fuel is leaking,
renew the canister, and check the hoses and
hose routing.
5 If the canister-purge solenoid valve is
thought to be faulty, unplug its electrical
connector and disconnect its vacuum hoses.
Connect a battery directly across the valve
terminals. Check that air can flow through the
valve passages when the solenoid is thus
energised, and that nothing can pass when
the solenoid is not energised.
6 Further testing should be left to a dealer
service department.
