1 General information andprecautions
General information
The fuel system on all models with
carburettor induction comprises a rear-
mounted fuel tank, a mechanical diaphragm
fuel pump, a carburettor and an air cleaner. The fuel tank is mounted at the rear, under
the floorpan behind the rear seats. The tank
has a “ventilation-to-atmosphere system”
through a combined roll-over/anti-trickle fill
valve assembly, located in the left-hand rear
wheel arch. A filler neck sensing pipe, integral
with the fuel tank filler pipe, will shut off the
petrol pump filler gun when the predetermined
maximum level of fuel is reached in the tank,
so preventing spillage and wastage. A
conventional fuel level sender unit is mounted
in the top face of the fuel tank. One of two fuel pump types will be fitted,
depending on the engine type. On HCS
engines, the fuel pump is operated by a
pivoting rocker arm; one end rests on an
eccentric lobe on the engine camshaft, and
the other end is attached to the fuel pump
diaphragm. The pump fitted to the CVH
engine is operated by a separate pushrod,
one end rests on an eccentric lobe on the
engine camshaft, and the other rests on the
pump actuating rod which operates the
diaphragm. Both types of mechanical pump
incorporate a nylon mesh filter, and are of
sealed type (they cannot be serviced or
overhauled). Four different types of Weber carburettor
are featured in the range, further details being
given in later Sections of this Chapter. The air cleaner incorporates a “waxstat”
controlled air inlet, supplying either hot air
from a shroud mounted around the exhaust
manifold, or cool air from a duct in the front of
the vehicle.
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.
Certain adjustment points in the fuel system
are protected by tamperproof caps, plugs or
seals. In some territories, it is an offence to
drive a vehicle with broken or missing
tamperproof seals. Before disturbing a
tamperproof seal, first check that no local or
national laws will be broken by doing so, and
fit a new tamperproof seal after adjustment is
complete, where required by law. Do not
break tamperproof seals on any vehicle whilst
it is still under warranty. Carburettors are delicate instruments, and
care must be taken not to disturb any
components unnecessarily. Before attempting
work on a carburettor, ensure that the relevant
spares are available; it should be noted that a complete strip down of a carburettor is
unlikely to cure a fault which is not
immediately obvious, without introducing new
problems. If persistent problems occur, it is
recommended that the services of a Ford
dealer or a carburettor specialist are sought.
Most dealers will be able to provide
carburettor rejetting and servicing facilities.
Where necessary, it may be possible to
purchase a reconditioned carburettor.

as described in Section 16. The power valve
assembly can also be removed in a similar
fashion.
5Prise free the accelerator pump discharge
tube, but take care not to damage it or the
carburettor body.
6 Remove the jets and emulsion tubes as
required, making careful notes of their
respective locations for reassembly.
Cleaning and inspection
7 Soak out the fuel in the float chamber using
a clean rag; this must be safely disposed of.
Clean the float chamber, jets, drillings and
passages with clean petrol. The careful use of
an air line (or footpump) is ideal to blow out
the upper and lower bodies. Never use a
piece of wire for cleaning purposes.
8 Examine all of the carburettor components
for signs of damage or wear, paying particular
attention to the diaphragms, throttle spindle
and plates, and needle valve. Renew all
diaphragms, sealing washers and gaskets as
a matter of course.
Reassembly
9 Refit the emulsion tubes and jets to their
locations as noted during dismantling.
10 Refit the accelerator pump discharge
tube.
11 Refit the accelerator pump and power
valve assemblies as described in Section 16.
12 Refit the needle valve and the float, and
adjust the float setting as described in Sec-
tion 14.
13 Locate a new gasket onto the mating
face, then refit the carburettor upper body to
the main body. As they are reassembled, take
care not to snag the float on the carburettor
main body. Fit and tighten the retaining
screws to secure.
14 On completion, refit the carburettor as
described in Section 15.
18 Carburettor (Weber TLDM) -
description
The carburettor is of twin venturi,
downdraught type, featuring a fixed size main
jet system, adjustable idle system, a
mechanically-operated accelerator pump, and
a vacuum-operated power valve. A manually-
operated cold start choke is fitted, and a
throttle kicker is used on certain models.
In order to comply with emission control
regulations and maintain good fuel
consumption, the main jets are calibrated to
suit the 1/4 to 3/4 throttle range. The power
valve is therefore only used to supply
additional fuel during full-throttle conditions. The accelerator pump is fitted to ensure a
smooth transmission from the idle circuit to
the main jet system. As the accelerator pedal
is depressed, a linkage moves the diaphragm
within the accelerator pump, and a small quantity of fuel is injected into the venturi, to
prevent a momentary weak mixture and
resultant engine hesitation.
The manually-operated choke features a
vacuum-operated pull-down mechanism
which controls the single choke plate under
certain vacuum conditions. On CTX automatic transmission models,
the throttle kicker acts as an idle speed
compensator for when the transmission shift
lever positions R, D or L are selected. The
throttle kicker is operated by vacuum supplied
from the inlet manifold. When the appropriate
transmission shift lever position is selected,
the throttle kicker control solenoid allows the
vacuum to pass to the throttle kicker which
maintains the idle speed by means of a
diaphragm and mechanical linkage. On manual transmission models, the
throttle kicker (when fitted) acts as a damper
by slowing down the closing action of the
throttle plate. Under deceleration, this
maintains the combustion of the air/fuel
mixture entering the cylinders, thus improving
the exhaust emission levels. A vacuum
sustain valve controls the carburettor-sourced
vacuum applied to the throttle kicker unit; this
allows the vacuum slowly to decay, allowing
normal engine idling speed to be achieved. An anti-dieseling (fuel cut-off) solenoid is
fitted to prevent the possibility of the engine
running on after the ignition is switched off. Idle speed and mixture adjustment
procedures are described in Chapter 1, but it
is important to note that accurate adjustments
can only be made using the necessary
equipment.
19 Carburettor (Weber TLDM) -
fast-idle speed adjustment
4
Note: Before carrying out any carburettor
adjustments, ensure that the spark plug gaps
are set as specified, and that all electrical and
vacuum connections are secure. To carry out
checks and adjustments, an accurate
tachometer and an exhaust gas analyser (CO
meter) will be required.
1 Check the idle speed and mixture settings are as specified (as described in Chapter 1).
These must be correct before
checking/adjusting the fast-idle speed.
2
With the engine at its normal operating
temperature, and a tachometer connected in
accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, switch the engine off, then

inspection and refitting
4
Note: Refer to the warning note in Section 1
before proceeding. A new carburettor upper
body gasket will be required when
reassembling. On completion, a tachometer
will be required to check the fast-idle speed
adjustment.
Removal
1 Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(refer to Chapter 5A, Section 1).
2 Remove the air cleaner as described in
Section 2.
3 To prevent excess coolant loss, clamp the
coolant supply and return hoses to the
automatic choke unit, and ensure that the
cooling system is not pressurised (see
Chapter 1). Identify then detach both of the
coolant hoses at the automatic choke
housing. Catch any coolant spillage in a
suitable container.
Warning: DO NOT attempt to
remove the expansion tank filler
cap, or to disturb any part of the
cooling system, while it or the
engine is hot, as there is a very great risk
of scalding. If the expansion tank filler cap
must be removed before the engine and
radiator have fully cooled down (even
though this is not recommended) the
pressure in the cooling system must first
be released. Cover the cap with a thick
layer of cloth, to avoid scalding, and slowly
unscrew the filler cap until a hissing sound
can be heard. When the hissing has
stopped, showing that pressure is
released, slowly unscrew the filler cap
further until it can be removed; if more
hissing sounds are heard, wait until they
have stopped before unscrewing the cap
completely. At all times, keep well away
from the filler opening.
4 Detach the fuel pipe and the anti-dieseling
solenoid wiring connector. Any crimped type
hose clips must be replaced with a screw
clamp type clips during reassembly.
5 Unscrew and remove the retaining screws (two conventional, and four Torx type), then lift
the carburettor upper body clear and remove it.

11 Reassemble the automatic choke
mechanism, making references to the notes
taken during dismantling. Note that no
lubricants must be used (see illustration).
12 Refit the vacuum unit, making reference to
the notes taken during dismantling. Ensure
that the diaphragm is lying flat before
tightening the housing retaining screws.
13 Locate the O-ring (ensuring that it is
correctly seated), then reconnect the choke
link. Refit the automatic choke unit, and secure
with the retaining screws. Check and adjust
the choke vacuum pull-down as described
in the previous Section (paragraphs 5 and 6).
14 Refit the inner heat shield, ensuring that
the location peg is securely engaged in its
notch.
15 Refit the automatic choke housing and the
bi-metal spring unit as described in the
previous Section (paragraph 9).
16 Refit the carburettor upper body, ensuring
that a new gasket is used and that the mating
surfaces are clean. Fit the retaining screws to
secure.
17 Reconnect the fuel hose to the carburettor,
using new screw type hose clips to secure it.
18 Reconnect the anti-dieseling solenoid
wiring connector.
19 Reconnect the coolant hoses to the
automatic choke unit, then check and if necessary top-up the cooling system as
described in “
Weekly Checks ” and Chapter 1.
20 Reconnect the battery negative lead, then
check and adjust the fast-idle speed as
described in Section 31.
21 Refit the air cleaner (Section 2).
35 Carburettor (Weber TLD) -
removal and refitting
4
Note: Refer to the warning note in Section 1
before proceeding. New gaskets will be required
on refitting and a tachometer and an exhaust gas
analyser will be required on completion.
Removal
1 Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(refer to Chapter 5A, Section 1).
2 Remove the air cleaner as described in
Section 2.
3 Release any pressure remaining in the
cooling system (see Chapter 1), and then
detach the two coolant hoses from the
automatic choke unit. Catch any coolant
spillage in a suitable container. Identify each
hose for subsequent refitting, then plug their
ends or position them as high as possible to
prevent coolant leakage. Warning: DO NOT attempt to
remove the expansion tank filler
cap, or to disturb any part of the
cooling system, while it or the
engine is hot, as there is a very great risk of
scalding. If the expansion tank filler cap
must be removed before the engine and
radiator have fully cooled down (even
though this is not recommended) the
pressure in the cooling system must first be
released. Cover the cap with a thick layer of
cloth, to avoid scalding, and slowly unscrew
the filler cap until a hissing sound can be
heard. When the hissing has stopped,
showing that pressure is released, slowly
unscrew the filler cap further until it can be
removed; if more hissing sounds are heard,
wait until they have stopped before
unscrewing the cap completely. At all times,
keep well away from the filler opening.
4 Disconnect the accelerator cable from the
linkage at the carburettor, as described in
Section 3.
5 Detach the anti-dieseling solenoid wiring
connector.
6 Detach the fuel feed hose at the carburettor.

As it is detached, plug the end of the hose to
prevent excessive fuel spillage and the ingress
of dirt. Where a crimped type hose clip is fitted,
cut it free, taking care not to damage the hose;
a new screw type clip will need to be obtained
to replace the crimped clip during reassembly.
7Disconnect the relevant vacuum pipes from
the carburettor. As they are detached, label
them to ensure correct reassembly.
8 Unscrew and remove the four Torx-type
retaining screws, and carefully lift clear the
carburettor from the inlet manifold (see
illustration) . Remove the gasket.
Refitting
9Clean the carburettor and the inlet manifold
mating faces.
10 Refit the carburettor in the reverse order of
removal, ensuring that a new gasket is fitted.
11 If they are perished or were damaged
during removal, renew the fuel and/or vacuum
hoses.
12 Reconnect the automatic choke unit
hoses, and then check/top-up the cooling
system if required, as described in “Weekly
Checks” and Chapter 1.
13 When the battery is reconnected, start
and warm up the engine then check the idle
speed and mixture settings as described in
Chapter 1.
36 Carburettor (Weber TLD) -
dismantling, cleaning,
inspection and reassembly
4
Proceed as described in Section 24, but
refer to the appropriate illustrations for the
TLD carburettor (see illustrations) . The
following should also be observed: a) When refitting the idle mixture adjustment
screw, make the initial adjustment by
screwing it fully into position (without
overtightening it), then unscrewing it by
three full turns.
b) Refer to Section 32 to adjust the needle
valve and float.
c) When the carburettor is reassembled and refitted, check and adjust the idle speed
and mixture settings as described in
Chapter 1.
37 Inlet manifold -
removal and refitting
4
Note: Refer to the warning note in Section 1
before proceeding.
Removal
1 Drain the cooling system as described in
Chapter 1.
2 Remove the carburettor as described in the
relevant earlier Sections of this Chapter,
according to carburettor type.
3 Noting their locations, disconnect the
coolant, vacuum and breather hoses from the
manifold.
4 Disconnect the wiring multi-plugs from the
engine sensors at the inlet manifold.
Disconnect the radio earth lead at the inlet
manifold connector.
5 Undo the retaining bolts, and withdraw the
manifold from the cylinder head. Remove the
gasket.
6 With the manifold removed, clean all traces
of the old gasket from the mating surfaces of
the manifold and the cylinder head.
Refitting
7 Refitting is the reversal of removal. Use a
new gasket, and tighten the retaining bolts to
the specified torque. Refit the remainder of the
components with reference to the appropriate
Chapters of this manual. On completion,
refill the cooling system as described in
Chapter 1.
