Fuel Tank

Parts List
The steel fuel tank is located inside the trunk and mounted across the vehicle behind the passenger compartment bulkhead.
The fuel tank is held in posi tion by two retaining straps fi tted to body-mounted brackets.
The fuel tank has an integral non-adjustable fill er pipe and integral breather and vapor pipework.
A single fuel pump is mounted inside the tank on vehicles with normally aspirated engines. For vehicles with supercharged
engines, two pumps are fitted in the tank. Fuel is drawn by the pump(s) from the fuel tank and supplied via the fuel lines
and 70 micron filter to the fuel rails.
The fuel lines run from front-to-rear down the vehicle's left-hand-side.

WARNING: NEVER USE A CFC 12 ANALYZ
ER OR NAKED FLAME TYPE.
Leak tests should be carried out with a UV spot lamp or an electronic analyzer which is dedicated to HFC 134A refrigerant.
Handling Lubricati
ng Oil
Av
oid breathing lubricant mist; it can cau
s
e irritation to the respiratory system.
Always use fresh oil from a sealed containe r and do not leave oil exposed to the atmosphere for any reason other than to fill
or empty a system. PAG oil is very hygr oscopic (absorbs water) and will rapidly become contaminated by atmospheric
moisture.

PAG oil is NOT compatible with previously used mineral based oi ls and must NEVER be mixed. Do not re-use oil when it has
been separated from refrigerant, following a re covery cycle. Dispose of used oil safely.
System Maintenance
Plug pipes an
d units immediatel
y after disconnection an d do not remove the plugs until immediately before making the
connection. Do not leave the system open to atmosphere.
The receiver drier must be renewed if the compressor has failed or if it is susp ected that debris may be present in the
system.
It is not always necessary to renew th e receiver drier if the correct procedur es have been followed. However, if a
component or part of the system is left dismantled for more than five minutes, it may be advisable to renew the receiver
drier. This guidance is based on UK average humidity levels; lo cations with lower humidity levels will be less critical to
moisture contamination. It must be stressed however th at there is not a safe period for work to be carried out in.
Do not use any replacement parts su pplied without transit plugs and seals - return them to the supplier.
Diagnostic equipment for pres sure, mass and volume should be calibrated regularly and certified by a third party
organization.
Use extreme care when handling and securi ng aluminum fittings; always use a backing spanner and take special care when
handling the evaporator.
Use only the correct or re commended tools for the job and apply the manufacturer's torque specifications.

troduction
It is very i
m
portant to positive
ly identify the area of concern before starting a rectification procedure. A little time spent with
your customer to identify the conditions under which a pr oblem occurs will be beneficial. See below for example:
Sym
ptom Chart
Re
lev
ant criteria are: Weather conditions,
ambient temperature, intermittent or cont inuous fault, airflow fault, temperature
control fault, distribution fault and air inlet problem.
Functio n
al Check
This
s
imple 'first line check' will allo
w you to ascertain whether the system is operating within its design parameters, withou t
recourse to PDU.
1. 1. With the engine at normal running temperature.
2. 2. Presss AUTO to display selected temperature and illuminate AUTO and A/C state lamps.
3. 3. Rotate FAN to increase or decrease lowe r speed, verify bar graph representation.
4. 4. Select A/C to toggle on or off. (T he compressor may be inhibited by the ECM should either the engine
temperature NOT be normal or the ambient be < 2° C).
5. 5. Select RECIRC , state lamp should be lit and the recirculation flaps open.
6. 6. Select distribution butt ons in turn, verify correct air distribution and relevant state lamp.
7. 7. Select DEFROST , check max fans and air to the windshield.
8. 8. Cycle TEMPERATURE to ' HI ' and ' LO ' to verify demanded variations and display operation. Note that extremes
will provide max heat or cold independent of in-car temperature.
9. 9. Select EXT to toggle between am bient and control temperatures.
10. 10. Select F (where fitted) and R - noting exterior mirror; verify timer and operation (glass may be warm to the
touch)
11. 11. Initiate system 'Self Test' to display stored faul ts should any of the above not perform as stated.

Air Distribution and Filtering - Air Distri
bution and Filtering
Description an
d Operation
Air Distribution


Ou
tside air enters the plen
um via four inlets in the lower windshield panel.
If the air conditioning system is operating in FRESH mode (not recirculation mode), then air is drawn through the four
plenum apertures (and particle filters where fitted) and into the air conditioni ng unit via the blower interconnecting ducts in
the LH and RH blower assemblies. Air is c ooled and dehumidified as it passes through the evaporator and is then 'reheated'
to the required temperature as it passes through the heater matrix.
In RECIRCULATION mode, the air in the pass enger compartment is drawn into the air conditioning unit via the recirculation
air inlets on the blower assemblies.
In FRESH mode, air flows from the cabin into the trunk through a gap between the backlight and the parcel shelf. The air is
exhausted from the vehicle through extraction vent assemblies (incorporating one way flaps) whose outlets are above the
rear mufflers.
