REPAIR
CAUTION: Ease timing belt off gears using
fingers only. Metal levers may damage the
belt and gears. Do not rotate engine with
timing belt removed and cylinder head fitted.
Timing belts must be stored and handled with
care. Always store a timing belt on its edge with a
bend radius greater than 50 mm. Do not use a
timing belt which has been twisted or bent double
as this can fracture reinforcing fibres. Do not use
an oil contaminated timing belt. Although the belt
has a service life of 96,000 miles, 160,000 km, an
existing belt should only be refitted if it has
completed less than 48,000 miles, 80,000 km.

17EMISSION CONTROL

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ADD: 09/95 System operation
The system is designed to prevent fuel vapour
escaping to atmosphere, and consists of four roll-over
valves fitted internally in the fuel tank, connected to
the liquid/vapour separator by a nylon line. The
separator is mounted to the side of the filler neck. An
EVAP canister is positioned in the engine
compartment mounted on the right front side valance.
The liquid/vapour separator and EVAP canister are
connected by a nylon line which runs the length of the
chassis.
Pressure/vacuum relief valves are incorporated into
the fuel filler cap and are designed to protect the fuel
tank from permanent deformation in the event of
system pressure or vacuum exceeding the system
operating parameters. There are no other relief or
one-way valves in the system.
A vent line flow restrictor known as an anti-trickle fill
valve is fitted to the filler pipe in the line between the
tank and EVAP canister. The function of this valve is
to prevent overfilling the tank by trickling fuel in,
thereby preserving the vapour space in the tank to
allow for fuel expansion during hot weather.
The valve achieves this by blocking the vent line
during the fuel filling process. The valve is operated
by the action of inserting the filler gun so that when
the fuel in the tank reaches the level of the filling
breather, flow cut off occurs due to fuel filling the filler
pipe.During normal vehicle operation and when the engine
is switched off, the venting system between the fuel
tank and EVAP canister is open to allow the free
passage of vapour.
The EVAP canister, which is connected by a nylon
hose to the plenum chamber, absorbs and stores the
fuel vapour from the fuel tank when the engine is not
running. With the engine running, vapour is purged
from the EVAP canister by allowing outside air to be
drawn through the EVAP canister vent solenoid and
link pipe by the influence of manifold vacuum to the
EVAP canister purge connection on the canister.
Filter pads are fitted above and below the charcoal
and in the EVAP canister vent solenoid to prevent the
ingress of foreign matter into the purge line.
The EVAP canister purge valve, which is fitted in the
line from the EVAP canister to the plenum, is
controlled by the ECM which determines the most
emission acceptable time at which purging should
take place. This will normally be at engine speeds
above idle and when the vehicle is in motion.
The EVAP canister vent solenoid is mounted on the
side of the EVAP canister bracket and is connected to
the EVAP canister by a length of large bore hose. The
ECVS is controlled by the ECM and is normally open.
The function of the ECVS is to block the air intake
side of the EVAP canister. When the system receives
an ECM signal the valve closes; this allows the
system leak check to take place. The leak check only
occurs when pre-determined vehicle operating
conditions are met.

ADJUSTMENT LOW AND HIGH IDLE SPEED
Adjust
The high idle speed (cold start idle) is
automatically set by the setting of the low idle
speed and can not be adjusted individually.
1.Check and adjust throttle cable.
2.Start engine and run it until normal operating
temperature is reached.
3.Using a suitable tachometer, check the engine
idle speed.
See ENGINE TUNING DATA,
Information, 300 Tdi Engine
4.If adjustment is necessary, loosen the locknut on
the injector pump.
5.Turn the adjustment screw either clockwise to
increase the engine speed or anti-clockwise to
decrease the speed. Run the engine at an
increased speed for a few seconds then check
the idle speed again.
6.When the correct speed has been achieved,
hold the adjuster screw steady while tightening
the locknut.
NOTE: The low idle speed control is the
only permitted adjustment in service. Any
additional adjustments required must be
entrusted to authorised Bosch agents.CHECK TURBOCHARGER BOOST PRESSURE
For boost pressure.
See ENGINE TUNING DATA,
Information, 300 Tdi Engine
1.Disconnect, from turbocharger, hose to actuator.
Insert into a suitable "T" piece.
2.Connect a short length of suitable hose to
turbocharger and connect other end to "T" piece.
3.Connect a further length of hose to third leg of
the "T" piece and other end to a pressure gauge
capable of reading in excess of 61 cm Hg. The
pressure gauge hose must be capable of
reaching passenger compartment so that gauge
may be observed.
4.To check maximum boost pressure, drive
vehicle normally but in such a manner that full
throttle can be maintained whilst climbing a hill
with engine speed held steady between 2,500
and 3,000 rev/min.
