Adjustment Procedure
1. Connect the digital tester (1) and TDC pulse sender
unit (11).
2. Run the engine and warm up the coolant to
60~80_C.

3. Disconnect the vacuum hose (4) from the PLA unit
to check idle speed with tester.
4. Check idle speed with tester.

Notice
To adjust idle speed, loosen the locking nut (6) of
PLA unit.

5. Ensure not to damage the idle spring in the governor
and adjust idle speed by turning the PLA unit (5)
slowly.
ClockwiseRPM Decrease
CounterclockwiseRPM Increase
Notice
Do not rotate the PLA unit over 1/2 turn from the
position marking. If do, idle spring in the governor
will be severely damaged.
6. After adjustment, tighten the locking nut and place
the position marking with different color of paint.
Notice
If there are no changes in idle speed with PLA unit
adjustment, perform the service at a BOSCH Ser-
vice Center.
7. Connect the vacuum pump to the PLA vacuum unit
and build up vacuum approx. 500mbar. If engine
rpm increases by approx. 100rpm, It is normal.

8. Connect the vacuum line (4).
9. Switch on all ancillaries and check the idle speed.

FUEL PUMP TEST
Notice
Before test, replace the fuel filter cartridge and fuel pre-
filter.
Fuel Feed Test
1. Disconnect the fuel return line (1) and seal up it with
plug.
2. Insert the plastic hose (5) and put the end into the
measuring beaker (6).
3. Disconnect the vacuum line (4) from vacuum unit
(engine stop) (5) and connect the vacuum pump (7)
to the vacuum unit.
4. To avoid the engine starting, build up vacuum
(approx. 500 mbar).
5. Operate the starter motor for exactly 30 seconds
and measure fuel volume in the beaker.
