Problems with the system should therefore be referred to a Fiat dealer for assessment. Once the fault has been Identified, the removal/ refitting procedures detailed in the following Sections can then be followed.
Precautions

A


Warning: Many procedures In this Chapter require the removal of fuel lines and connections, which may result In fuel spillage. Before carrying out any operation on the fuel system, refer to the precautions given In Safety flrstl at the beginning of this manual, and follow them implicitly. Petrol Is a highly dangerous and volatile liquid, and the precautions necessary when handling it cannot be overstressed. Note that residual pressure will remain in the fuel lines long after the vehicle was last used, When disconnecting tny fuel line, first depressurise the fuel system {see Section 9).

Removal
1242 cc (8-valve) engines 1 Remove the air cleaner element as described In Chapter 1A. 2 Disconnect the outer section from the hot air tube and the Inlet air duct and remove it from the engine compartment. 3 If necessary remove the inlet air duct. 4 Disconnect the large and small breather hoses from the inner section of the air cleaner, then unscrew the retaining nuts and lift the section from the throttle body. 5 Recover the sealing ring. Check the nng for condition and renew it it necessary. 6 Wipe clean the inner surfaces of both the Inner and outer sections of the air cleaner,
1242 cc (16-valve) engines 7 Release the hose clip and disconnect the inlet air duct from the resonator (see illustration).

8.5 Dial gauge (1), mounting bracket (2) and setting rod (3) In position on the injection pump (Lucas)
so that Its tip Is In contact with the bracket linkage (see Illustration). Position the dial gauge so that its plunger is at the mid-point of its travel and zero the gauge. 6 Rotate the crankshaft slowly in the correct direction of rotation (clockwise) until the crankshaft is positioned at TDC on No 1 piston with ell the sprocket timing marks aligned. 7 Check the reading on the dial gauge which should correspond to the value marked on the pump (there is a tolerance of * 0.04 mm). The timing value may be marked on a plastic disc attached to the front of the pump, or alternatively on a tag attached to Ihe pump control lever (see illustrations). 8 If adjustment is necessary, slacken the front pump mounting nuts/bolt and the raar mounting bolt, then slowly rotate tne pump body until the point is found where the specified reading is obtained on the dial gauge (access to the lower front bolt is gained through the hole in the injection pump sprocket). When the pump Is correctly positioned, tighten both its front mounting nuta/bolt and the rear bolt to their specified torque settings. 9 Withdraw the timing probe slightly, so that it
positioned clear of the pump rotor dowel. Rotato the crankshaft ihrough one and three quarter rotations in the normal direction of rotation. 10 Slide the timing probe back Into position ensuring that it Is correctly seated against the guide sealing washer surface, not (he upper Hp, then zero the dial gauge. 11 Rotate the crankshaft slowly in the correct direction ol rotation to the TDC position and recheck the timing measurement 12 If adjustment Is necessary, slacken the pump mounting nuts and bolt and repeat the operations in paragraphs 6 to 11. 13 When the pump timing is correctly set. remove the dial gauge and mounting bracket and withdraw the timing probe. 14 Refit the screw and sealing washer to the guide and tighten it securely.
8.7a Pump timing value (x) marked on plastic diso (Lucas)
15 If the procedure is being carried out as part of the pump refilling sequence, proceed as described in Section 5. 16 If the procedure is being carried out with the pump fitted to the engine, refit the injector pipes tightening their union nuts to the specified torque setting. Reconnect the battery and refit the air inlet ducting. 17 Start the engine, and check for any leakage at the fuel unions. To enable the engine to start it may be necessary to loosen tho injector union nuts while turning the engine on the starter motor in order to purge trapped air. 18 Check and If necessary adjust the Idle speed as described In Chapter 1B.
9 Fuel Injectors -testing, removal and refitting Sk ^

A


Warning: Exercise extreme caution when working on the fuel injectors. Never expose the hands or any part of the body to Injector spray, as the high working pressure can cause the fuel to pen ot rate the skin, with possibly fatal results. You are strongly advised to have any work which involves testing the injectors under pressure carried out by a dealer or fuel Injection specie list.
Testing 1 Injectors do deteriorate with prolonged uso, and it is reasonable to expect them to need reconditioning or renewal after 60 000 miles
8.7b Pump timing values marked on label (1) and tag (2) (Lucas)
(100 000 km) or so. Accurate testing, overhaul and calibration of the Injectors must be left to a specialist. A defective injector which Is causing knocking or smoking can be located without dismantling as follows. 2 Run the engine at a fast idle. Slacken each Injector union In turn, placing rag around the union to catch spilt fuel, and being careful not to exposa the skin to any spray. When tho union on the defective Injector is slackened, the knocking or smoking will stop.
Removal 3 Remove ihe air Inlet ducting from tho front part of the onglne. 4 Carefully clean around the Injectors and injector pipe union nuts. 5 Pull the leak-off pipes from the injectors (see illustration). 6 Unscrow the union nuts securing Ihe injector pipes to the fuel Injection pump. Counterhold the unions on the pump when unscrewing the nuts. Cover open unions lo keep dirt out, using small plastic bags, or fingers cut from discarded (but clean!) rubber gloves. 7 Unscrew the union nuts and disconnect the pipes from the ln|ectors, If necessary, the Injector pipes may be completely removed-Note carefully the locations of the pipe clamps, for use when refitting. Cover tho onds ot (he injectors, to prevent dirt ingress. 8 Unscrew the injectors using a deep socket or box spanner, and remove Ihem from the cylinder head (see Illustration). 9 Recover the tire seal washers from the cy-linder head and discard them (see illustration).

Automatic transmission 7B*3
11 When reverse gear Is selected, the control unit keeps the transmission In tow ratio, if this were not the case, it would, In theory, be possible to drive as fast In reverse as in forward gear. 12 An electronic control unit supplies the current to energise the clutch. The control unit receives signals concerning engine speed, road speed, accelerator pedal position, and gear selector position, Sensors include the following. a) Engine rpm sensor (from the Injection/ignition control unit) b) Accelerator pedal switch
c) Throttle valve position sensor d) Selector lever position sensor e) Vehicle speed sensor f) Coolant temperature sensor g) Air conditioning sensor h) Brake switch I) Torque signal
13 The final drive/differential unit Is conventional. Drive from the driven pulley is transmitted to the differential by an Intermediate reduction gear. 14 The ECVT incorporates a warning light which illuminates when a fault occurs.
Precautions 1$ Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to the automatic transmission: a) Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing or towing the car. b) If the car has to be towed for recovery, the distance must not exceed 12 miles (20
km),
and the speed must not exceed
19
mph
(30 kph).
If these conditions cannot be met, or If transmission damage is suspected, only tow the car with the front wheels clear of the ground. c) Only engage P or R when the vehicle is stationary.
