The procedures detailed, carried out in the sequence given and using the appropriate service tools, will enable the operations to be completed in the time stated in the Repair Operation Times, Indexing For convenience, this Manual is divided into a number of divisions. A contents page listing the tiles and reference ‘numbers of the various divisions is shown opposite. A list of the operations within each of the divisions appears in alphabetical order on the contents page preceding each of the divisions, Operation Numbering Each operation is followed by the number allocated to it in a master index. The number consists of six digits arranged in three pairs, ‘The master index of operations has been compiled for universal application to vehicles manufactured by BL Limited and therefore continuity of the numbering sequence is not maintained throughout the Manual, To assist with locating information, each division of the Manual is preceded by a contents page listing the operations in alphabetical order. Each instruction within an operation has a sequence number and, to complete the operation in the minimum time itis essential that these instructions are performed in numerical sequence commencing at 1 unless otherwise stated. Where applicable the sequence numbers identify the components in the appropriate illustration. Where performance of an operation requires the use of service tool, the tool number is quoted under the operation heading and is repeated in, or following the instruction involving its use. ‘An illustrated list of all service tools necessary to complete the operations described in the Manual is also included. References References to the left or right hand side in the Manual are made when viewing the vehicle from the rear. With the engine and gearbox assembly removed, the water pump end of the engine is referred to as the front. Repairs and Replacements When service parts are required itis essential that only genuine Land Rover replacements are used. Attention is particularly drawn to the following points concerning repairs and the fitting of replacement parts and Safety features embodied in the vehicle may be impaired if other than genuine parts are fitted. In certain territories, legislation prohibits the fitting of parts not to the vehicle manufacturers’ specification. Torque wrench setting figures given in the Repair Operation Manual must be strictly adhered to. Locking devices, where specified, must be fitted. Ifthe efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal it must be renewed. ‘Owners purchasing accessories while travelling abroad should ensure that the accessory and its fitted loca- tion on the car conform to mandatory requirements existing in their country of origin ‘The vehicle warranty may be invalidated by the fitting of other than genuine Land Rover parts All Land Rover replacements have the full backing of the factory warranty, Land Rover and Range Rover Distributors and Dealers are obliged to supply only genuine service parts. SAFETY POISONOUS SUBSTANCES. WARNING ‘Many liquids and other substances used in motor vehicles are poisonous and should under no circumstances be consumed and should as far as possible be kept away from ‘open wounds. These substances among others include antifreeze, brake fluid, fuel, windscreen washer additives, lubricants and various adhesives. FUEL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ‘The following information provides basic precautions which ‘must be observed if petrol (gasoline) is to be handled safely. It also outlines the other areas of risk which must not be ignored. ‘This information is issued for basic guidance only, and in any case of doubt appropriate enquiries should be made of your local Fire Officer. General Petrol/gasoline vapour is highly flammable and in confined spaces is also very explosive and toxic. When petrol/gasoline evaporates it produces 150 times ‘own volume in vapour, which when diluted with air becomes a readily ignitable mixture. The vapour is heavier ‘than air and will always fall to the lowest level. It can readily be distributed throughout a workshop by air current, consequently, even a small spillage of petrol/ sasoline is potentially very dangerous. ‘Always have a fire extinguisher containing FOAM CO; GAS ‘or POWDER close at hand when handling or draining fuel, ‘or when dismantling fuel systems and in areas where fuel containers are stored. Always disconnect the vehicle battery BEFORE carrying ‘out dismantling or draining work on a fuel system. Whenever petrol/gasoline is being handled, drained or stored, or when fuel systems are being dismantled all forms of ignition must be extinguished or removed, any lamps used must be flameproof and kept clear of spillage. NO ONE SHOULD BE PERMITTED TO REPAIR COMPONENTS ASSOCIATED WITH PETROL/ GASOLINE WITHOUT FIRST HAVING HAD SPECIA- LIST TRAINING. 1-4 Fuel Tank Draining WARNING: PETROL/GASOLINE MUST NOT BE EXTRACTED OR DRAINED FROM ANY VEHICLE WHILST IT IS STANDING OVER A PIT. Draining or extracting petrol/gasoline from vehicle fuel tank must be carried out in a well ventilated area, ‘The receptacle used to contain the petrol/gasoline must be more than adequate for the full amount of fuel to be extracted or drained, The receptacle should be clearly marked with its contents, and placed in a safe storage area which meets the requirements of local authority regulations. WHEN PETROL/GASOLINE HAS BEEN EXTRACTED ‘OR DRAINED FROM A FUEL TANK THE PRECAU- TIONS GOVERNING NAKED LIGHTS AND IGNITION ‘SOURCES SHOULD BE MAINTAINED. Fuel Tank Removal On vehicle where the fuel line is secured to the fuel tank outlet by a spring steel clip, itis recommended that such clips are released before the fuel line is disconnected or the fuel tank unit is removed. This procedure will avoid the possibility of residual petrol fumes in the fuel tank being ignited when the clips ae released. ‘As an added precaution fuel tanks should have a PETROL/GASOLINE VAPOUR warning label attached 0 them as soon as they are removed from the vehicle. Fuel Tank Repair Under no circumstances should a repair to any tank involving heat treatment be carried out without first rendering the tank SAFE, by using one of the following methods: (@) STEAMING: With the filler cap and tank unit re- moved, empty the tank. Steam the tank for at least 2 hours with low pressure steam. Position the tank so that condensation can drain away freely, ensuring that any sediment and sludge not volatised by the steam, is washed out during the steaming process () BOILING: With the filer cap and tank unit removed, ‘empty the tank. Immerse the tank completely in boiling water containing an effective alkaline degreas- ing agent or a detergent, with the water filling and also surrounding the tank for at east 2 hours. After steaming or boiling a signed and dated label to this, effect should be attached to the tank. ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS USED IN THIS MANUAL. ‘Across flats (bolt size)...

Fast idle Operation of the choke from ‘ON’ to ‘OFF” should result in a fast idle speed of 1200 + SO rev/min when the choke control is approximately 12.70 mm (0.5 in) from the [Link] position. Should adjustment be required, the following procedure rust be used:— 1. Remove the L.H. carburetter from the engine 2. Put the Starter Unit Adjusting Pin into the full choke position (pin in the groove). 3. With the Starter Unit held in the full choke position, it should be just possible to insert a 0.9 mm (No. 65) drill between the top edge of the throttle plate and the throttle barrel wall. 4, To adjust the setting, release the locknut on the dome head screw fitting in the throttle lever that contacts the ‘Starter Unit Cam, adjust the serew to obtain the required setting, tighten the locknut and recheck the gap. 5. Replace the adjusting pin in the reduced choke position, 6. Refit the LH. carburetter to the engine. ‘The following components are preset and non-adjustable. a. Temperature compensator. b. Poppet valve Should these units be suspected of malfunction they must be changed. Fuel Deflector Plate ‘This must be fitted between the inlet manifold and the carburetter insulating block, with the saw teeth facing downstream of the carburetter. The plate will foul the carburetter butterfly plate if fitted between the carburetter and insulator. ‘TUNING PROCEDURE 3 (TOP ADJUSTMENT) Idle Speed and Mixture Setting Exhaust C.0. 3.0 to 4.5% at 700 to 750 rev/min, NOTE: On new engines idle speed will be lower for the running in period, Fast Idle Setting 1200 + 50 rev/min with the engine at normal operating temperature. Idle Mixture Setting Before proceeding with adjustment the engine should be at normal operating temperature (Warm Air Intake Valve Open) and the Carburetters balanced. Equipment requiced:~ CO Meter Calibrated Tachometer ‘Mixture Adjustment Tool ~ Part No. $353 (Zenith B 20379) ‘Allen’ key type or Part No. MS 80 (Zenith B 25860) slotted socket type. To meet certain new legislative requizements recent carburetters employ a raised blade instead of an ‘Allen’ Key socket for adjusting the mixture needle. This necessitates the provision of alternative tools. 0s-2 Engine Tuning Data Mixture adjustment is made by changing the metering needle position relative to the fixed jet orifice using the appropriate adjustment tool, as follows:— 1. Remove the piston damper. 2. Insert the adjustment tool, into the piston guide rod, ensuring that the peg on the outer barrel of the tool engages {in the slot in the guide rod, this prevents the piston from rotating and consequently damaging the diaphragm. 3. Push down the adjustment tool until it engages in the metering needle housing. 4. Turn the tool in a clockwise direction to richen the mixture, and anti-clockwise to weaken the mixture. NOTE: The adjustment tool should be removed from the guide rod after every adjustment, to allow the engine to stabilise following the piston being depressed during adjustment. Run the engine for a few seconds at 2000 rev/min to aid stabilisation. S. Refit the piston damper. 6. Slight adjustment to idle speed and/or carburetter balance may be required after refitting the piston damper, there- fore run the engine at approximately 2000 rev/min for 20 seconds, make idle and balance adjustments, if necessary, before taking final C.O. reading. NOTE: The metering needle will normally be set with the shoulder of the needle flush with the face of the piston; this is termed the datum position, If difficulty is experienced with carburation the needle should be set to this datum for investigation. When using the adjustment tool, a positive stop will be felt when the needle reaches the fully rich position. In the anti-clockwise or weakening direction there is no stop and itis possible to disengage the needle from the adjustment screw if more than two turns are made from the datum position, Should disengagement occur, it can be rectified by applying light pressure in an upwards direction, to the shoulder of the needle at the piston face, while turning the adjustment tool in a clockwise direction. Poppet Valve and Temperature Compensator ‘These assemblies are preset and non-adjustable. If a malfunction occurs on either component, the carburetter must be replaced. Fast Idle Setting Operation of the choke from ‘ON’ to “OFF” should result in fast idle speed of 1200 + 50 rev/min when the choke control is approximately 12.70 mm (0.$ in) from the fully-in position ‘Should adjustment be required, proceed as follows:— 1. Slacken the choke cable clamping screw at the carburetter. 2. Pull the choke control knob out to a distance of approximately 12,70 mm (0.5 in) and turn to lock-in position 3. Tur the fast idle cam, allowing the choke cable to slide through the trunnion until the punched mark on the cam flank aligns with the centre of the domed fast idle screw and tighten the clamping screw. 4, With the cam held in this position, adjust the fast idle screw to obtain a fast idle speed of 1200 + SO rev/min and retighten the locknut. 5. Push the choke control knob fully home and check that normal idle speed is regained. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE 4 (TOP ADJUSTMENT TAMPERPROOFED) To comply with ECE exhaust emission regulations, all carburetters must be tamperproofed on the idle adjustment screws. ‘Therefore, after mixture and speed tests have been finalised, the carburetter must be tamperproofed by fitting a cap to the nylon shroud on the idle adjusting screw. Cap = Part No. ERC 3429 Cap fitting toot = Part No. ERC 3786 ‘Should, for any reason, the cap require removal, this can be effected by piercing the cap with a sharp pointed tool and prising out. ‘The following tools will be required to adjust idle speed, mixture and tamperproof carburetter:— Idle speed adjustment tool = Part No. MS 86 (Zenith B25243) “Idle Mixture adjustment tool _Part No. $353 (Zenith B20374) ‘Allen’ key type or Part No. MS 80 (Zenith B25860) slotted socket type ‘Tamperproof Cap fitting tool ~ Part No, ERC 3786 Acnumerical code exists for the tamperproofed cap and must be adhered to: Cap fitted by Land Rover Service Departments: Part No. ERC 3429 “To meet certain new legislative requirements, recent carburetters employ a raised blade instead of an ‘Allen’ key socket for adjusting the mixture needle. This necessitates the provision of alternative tools. 05-3 Engine Tuning Data The carburetters will be preset by the manufacturers to engineering requirements and should not normally require adjustment, However, should adjustment be required, the following method must be used. Idle Setting — with engine to normal operating temperatures Exhaust C.0. 3.0 to 4.5% (9.35:1 engine 2.0 to 3.5%) Idle Speed 700 to 750 rev/min, Fast Idle Setting: 1200 #50 rev/min NOTE: On new engines idle speed will be lower for the initial running in period. Tale Mixture Adjustment Engine should be at normal operating temperature (Warm Air Intake Valve Open). Mixture adjustment is effected by changing the metering needle position, relative to the fixed jet orifice, using the appropriate adjustment tool, 1. Remove the piston damper. 2. Insert the adjustment tool into the piston guide rod, ensuring the peg on the outer barrel of the tool locates in the slot in the guide rod, this prevents the piston twisting with consequent damage to the diaphragm, 3. Push down the adjustment tool until it engages in the metering needle housing. 4. Turn the tool in a clockwise direction to rich the mixture and anti-clockwise to weaken the mixture, NOTE: The adjustment tool should be removed from the guide rod after every adjustment, to allow the engine to stabilise, following the piston being depressed during adjustment. Run the engine for a few seconds at 2000 rev/min to aid stabilisation, 5. Refit the piston damper. 6. Slight adjustment to idle speed and/or carburetter balance may be required after refitting the piston damper, there- fore run engine at approximately 2000 rev/min for 20 seconds, make idle and balance adjustments, if necessary before taking final C.O. reading, NOTE: The metering needle will normally be set with the shoulder of the needle flush with the face of the piston, this is termed datum position. If difficulty is experienced with carburation the needle should be set to this datum for investigation. ‘When using the adjustment tool, a positive stop will be felt when the needle reaches the full rich position. In the anti-clockwise direction there is no stop and it is possible to disengage the needle from the adjusting screw, if more than two turns are made from the datum position, Should disengagement occur, it can be rectified by applying light pressure, in an upwards direction, to the shoulder of the needle at the piston face, while turning in a clockwise direction. Idle Speed Adjustment ‘To adjust the idle speed, the following procedure must be followed :— ‘Slacken the small bolts on the throttle levers to allow independent adjustment. Using tool, Part No, MS86 (Zenith B25243) slacken the locknuts on the idle speed adjustment screws. Adjust the screws to obtain correct idle speed and just nip the locknuts. Check C.O. reading, check carburetter balance, correct if necessary. When 3 and 4 are satisfactory, tighten the locknuts and reset the throttle Recheck the idle settings, Fit cap, Part No. ERC 3428, using tool, Part No. ERC 3786 to the nylon shroud surrounding the adjusting screw. Fast Ldle Setting Operation of the choke from ‘ON’ to “OFF” should result in a fast idle speed of 1200 + $0 rev/min when the choke control is approximately 12.70 mm (0.5 in) from the fully-in position. Should adjustment be required, proceed as follows:— 1, Slacken the choke cable clamping screw at the carburetter. Pull the choke control knob out and push in toa distance of approximately 12.70 mm (0.5 in) and lock in position. 3. Tum the starter cam, allowing the choke cable to sistide through the trunnion until the punched mark on the cam flank aligns with the centre of the domed screw on the starter/throttle lever and tighten the clamping screw. 4, With the cam held in this position, adjust the fast idle screws to obtain a speed of 1200 + $0 rev/min and retighten the locknut, 5. Push the choke cable fully home and check that normal idle speed is regained. Engine Tuning Data ‘Vacuum Retard Switch European (Pre 1975) and all Australian Vehicles ‘Setting: The gap between the cam and switch pad to be 0:900 to 1,02 mm (0.035 to 0.040 in). Procedure:— Slacken the nuts retaining the switch to the bracket. Depress the switch pad fully ‘Adjust the switch to correct the gap between the cam and the switch pad. ‘Tighten the switch retaining nuts Open the throttle fully, and close slowly to ensure the throttle is not propped open by the cam contacting the top edge of the switch pad. If the cam is propped, this will probably be due to misalignment of the switch pad to cam, ‘Vacuum Capsule Test To ensure that the vacuum capsule is functioning correctly, it is important that the following procedure is carried out: Remove the vacuum retard pipe from the distributor (this will increase the idle speed). If the vacuum capsule is functioning correctly, an advance to between 6 to 14 degrees B.T.D.C. should be noted. If this advance is not achieved the distributor should be changed, DISTRIBUTOR NOTE: Different distributors have been fitted according to model year and market requirements.
