proportionate to the requirements through the
higher
speed
and power range. The metering rod
is both mechanically and vacuum controlled and is
attached to the metering rod arm assembly.
During
part-throttle operation, vacuum in chamber

pulls
diaphragm down, holding metering arm
assembly against pump lifter
link.
Movement of the metering rod is controlled by the
pump lifter
link
which is attached to the carburetor
throttle shaft. At all
times
vacuum in the chamber
is strong
enough
to overcome the tension of pump

diaphragm
spring. Upper pump spring serves as

a
bumper upon deceleration and as a delayed
action spring upon acceleration. Under any operat­ ing condition, when the pump diaphragm spring
overcomes vacuum in the chamber, the metering

rod
will
move
toward the wide throttle (power) position.

Note:
Nozzle is pressed in and should not be
removed.

Metering Rod Adjustment

Check
metering rod adjustment each time the

carburetor
is reassembled. Before adjustment is
made, be sure that the flat of metering rod arm
is parallel to the flat of pump lifter
link
as shown
(Fig.
E-10.).
With
the throttle valve
seated
in

buretor
bore, press down on the upper end of
diaphragm
shaft until the diaphragm
bottoms

Early
production
Carburetor
Models 938-S, 938-
SA,
938-SC

Inasmuch
as a flat
spot
on acceleration or low speed
stumble can
come
from causes other than
car­

buretor
malfunction, it is recommended that
engine

tuning be thoroughly checked before attempting
any
actual carburetor work. Make sure that
ignition, compression, and timing are correct and
that fuel pump is supplying enough gas. Also, the F-head
engine
employs a water-heated intake

manifold.
Proper vaporization of the fuel depends
on correct intake manifold temperature. Since this
temperature is controlled by the cooling system
thermostat, include an operational check of the
thermostat when diagnosing the stumble. Operating
temperatures consistently below
155°F.
can cause stumble.

If
the stumble persists, a
YF-938-S,
YF-938-SA,

or
YF-938-SC
carburetor can be converted to a
YF-938-SD
carburetor by installing Special Kit
924161, consisting of a pump discharge check
needle, a metering rod, and a metering rod jet. If this kit is installed, the pump discharge check

needle
replaces the original
ball,
weight, and re­

tainer
and the small wire-type retainer used with
the
ball
check assembly must not be reinstalled.

When
installing the kit, check the size of the pump discharge jet, No. 2, Fig. E-14.
Early
production
YF-938S
and
YF-938SA
carburetors have a .025" [0,635 mm.] jet installed. If the carburetor being
converted has a .025" jet it must be opened up to .031" [0,787 mm.] by running a No. 68
drill
through
the jet as shown in
Fig.
E-14.
The jet must be drilled
as it is a pressed in part and cannot be replaced.
Upon
completing the installation of the conversion

kit,
mark
or tag the carburetor to indicate that it
is a
YF-938SD.

With
the

engine
idling at normal operating temperature,
adjust
the dash pot as follows:

The
dash pot adjustment is made with the throttle
set at curb idle (not fast idle). Loosen dash pot lock
nut and
turn
the dash pot assembly until dash pot
plunger contacts the throttle lever without the plunger being depressed.
Then
turn
the dash pot

securely. As a final check, open carburetor and
allow throttle to snap closed. Time dash pot delay­ ing action from the point where the throttle lever
hits the dash pot to the point where the lever
stops

moving. The dash pot should delay or cushion
closing action for two seconds by saying, "One
thousand and one, one thousand and two."

Early

The

body, a rubber diaphragm, rocker arm, valves,

Nut springs, gaskets, and a glass sediment bowl complete

The
metal pump body provides
a
work­
ing housing for the diaphragm, lever, valves, and springs. The fuel pump is mounted on the left side
of the
engine
and is actuated by an eccentric on the
camshaft. An air
dome
is cast into the metal cover
to relieve the carburetor
needle
valve and the fuel
pump diaphragm of excessive pressure when the

carburetor
needle
valve is closed.

Tracing
pump operation from the beginning, the
camshaft eccentric forces the diaphragm up, over­
coming spring pressure.
This
action creates a
partial
vacuum
in the pump chamber.
Fuel
from the main

tank
is forced into the low-pressure pump chamber
through the open disc valve. Incoming fuel supplies
the force necessary to open the valve, which is

a
one-way check valve. As the
engine
camshaft continues to rotate, spring pressure forces the

diaphragm
downward as the pump rocker arm
follows the camshaft eccentric to its low
spot.

The
downward action of the diaphragm
closes

the intake valve and forces fuel to the carburetor

reservoir
through the pump
outlet
valve. Both intake and
outlet
valves are one-way check valves
opened and closed by fuel flow. No mechanical components are required in the control of valve
operation.

Fuel
is delivered to the carburetor only when the float
needle
is off its seat. When the fuel level in the carburetor bowl is high enough for the float to
force the
needle
against its seat, pressure backs up
to the fuel pump air
dome
and causes the diaphragm
to
stop
pumping. In this position, the pump is said
to be balanced because the pressure in the pump- to-carburetor line equals that of the diaphragm

spring.
In this way, fuel from the pump to the
carburetor
is always under pressure. The carburetor

uses
fuel, causing the float to drop and
pull
the

carburetor
needle
valve off its seat. Pressure in the pump immediately drops as fuel is delivered to the

carburetor
reservoir. Almost instantaneously the

diaphragm
again starts operating to pump more 125

Exhaust
Emission
Control
System consists of a belt driven air pump

which
directs compressed air through connecting

hoses
to a steel distribution manifold into stainless steel injection
tubes
in the exhaust port adjacent
to each exhaust valve stem.
This
air with its normal

oxygen
content, reacts with the hot but incom­
pletely burned exhaust
gases
and permits further combustion in the exhaust port or manifold.
Fl-2. AIR
PUMP

The
air injection pump is a positive displacement
vane type which is permanently lubricated and
requires
no periodic maintenance.

The
pump contains an integral relief valve which controls the air supplied to the
engine
exhaust ports

during
high speed operation to limit maximum ex­
haust system temperatures.

Fl-3. PUMP
AIR
FILTER

The
air filter attached to the pump is a replaceable
element type constructed of conventional pleated
paper
with steel end plates.

The
filter should be replaced every
12,000
miles
[19,200
km.] under normal conditions or sooner

under
adverse weather or driving conditions.

project into the exhaust ports directing air
into the vicinity of the exhaust valve stem.

Fl-6.
ANTI-BACKFIRE DIVERTER VALVE

The
anti-backfire diverter valve prevents
engine
backfire
by briefly interrupting the air being in­
jected into the exhaust manifold during periods of deceleration (rapid throttle closure).

Fl-15.
Anti-iackfire
Diverter Valve

The
anti-backfire valve remains closed
except
when
the throttle is closed rapidly from an
open
position.

To
check the valve for proper operation, accelerate
the
engine
in neutral, allowing the throttle to
close

rapidly.
The valve is operating satisfactorily when
no exhaust system backfire occurs. A further check
to determine whether the valve is functioning can be made by removing from the anti-backfire valve
the large
hose
Which
connects to the check valve.
Accelerate the
engine
to allow the throttle to
close

rapidly.
The valve is operating satisfactorily if a
momentary interruption of rushing air is audible.

Fl-16.
Check Valve

The
check valve prevents the reverse flow of ex­
haust
gases
to the pump in the
event
the pump
should, for any reason,
become
inoperative or should exhaust pressure ever
exceed
pump pressure.

To
check this valve for proper operation, remove the air supply
hose
from the pump at the
distri­

bution manifold.
With
the
engine
running, listen for exhaust leakage at the check valve which is
connected to the distribution manifold.

Fl-17.
Air
Pump

Check
for proper drive belt tension with belt tension
gauge
W-283. The belt strand tension should be

50-60
pounds on a belt with previous service, meas­

ured
on the
longest
accessible span
between
two pulleys. When installing a new belt, adjust the
tension to
60-80
pounds tension. DO NOT PRY
ON
THE DIE
CAST
PUMP
HOUSING.

To
check the pump for proper operation, remove the air
outlet
hose
at the pump.
With
the
engine

running,
air discharge should be
felt
at the pump

outlet
opening. The pump
outlet
air pressure, as determined by the relief valve, is preset and is not
adjustable.

The
air pump
rear
cover assembly, housing the pressed in inlet and discharge tubes, and the pres­
sure relief valve are the only pump
components

recommended for service replacement. These parts
are
to be replaced only when damaged as a result
of handling or in the
event
the relief valve was
tampered with.

Carburetor
Air
Cleaner

Every
6000
miles
[9,600
km.] clean the inside
sur­

face at the sump and
refill
to indicated oil level with
SAE
40 or 50
engine
oil
above
32 F; SAE 20

below
32 F. Wash filter
element
in kerosene and

drain.
Reassemble the air cleaner.

More
frequent cleaning and replacement is advis­ able when the car is operated in dusty areas or on
unpaved roads. Accumulated dirt restricts air flow,
reducing fuel
economy
and performance.

REMOVAL
PROCEDURES

The
following paragraphs
give
the procedures for removing the major units of the Exhaust Emission

Control
System and the required equipment
needed.

Fl-20.
Air
Pump

Loosen
the air pump adjusting strap to facilitate

drive
belt removal. Remove the air pump air dis­
charge hose(s) and air filter attachment. Separate
the air pump from its mounting bracket. At time of installation, torque tighten the air pump mount­ing
bolts
to
30-40
lbs-ft. [4,15 a 5,53 kg-m.]. Adjust
the belt strand tension to
50-60
pounds on a belt
with previous service and
60-80
pounds on a new
belt.

Fl-21.
Anti-Backfire
Diverter Valve

The
anti-backfire diverter valve removal requires disconnecting the
hoses
and bracket to
engine
at­
taching screws.

Fl-22.
Air
Distribution
Manifold
and
Injection Tubes

In
order to remove the air distribution manifold
without bending the tubing, which could result in
fractures
or leakage, it is necessary to remove the
exhaust manifold as an assembly from the
engine.

After
the exhaust manifold assembly is removed
from
the
engine,
place the manifold in a vise and

loosen
the air distribution manifold
tube
retaining nuts at each cylinder exhaust port. Tap the injec­
tion
tubes
lightly to allow the air distribution mani­
fold to be pulled away partially from the exhaust manifold. The stainless steel injection
tubes
in the
exhaust manifold may have
become
partially fused
to the air distribution manifold and, therefore, may
require
application of heat to the joint in order to
separate. While applying heat to the joint, rotate
the injection
tubes
with pliers being careful not to
damage the
tubes
by applying excessive force.

At
time of installation, the air injection
tubes
must
be positioned into the exhaust manifold prior to
placing the exhaust manifold assembly on the en­ gine.

Note:
Two different length injection
tubes
are used.

The
shorter length injection
tubes
must be inserted into cylinders 1 and 4. 145

Fl

EXHAUST
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS The
air distribution manifold should be installed
after the exhaust manifold assembly is torqued
to the cylinder head. The recommended procedure
for exhaust manifold assembly installation is as follows:
Clean
the mating surface of both the
manifold and cylinder head.
Install
the exhaust manifold to the cylinder head using a new gasket.

Tighten
the manifold to cylinder head, attaching
bolts
down evenly.
Finish
torque tightening to 29
to 35 ft. lbs. [3,4 a 4,8 kg-m.].

DIAGNOSIS GUIDE
Pump Noisy

Hoses Touching Other Parts of Engine or Body (Hood).

Note:
The air pump is not completely noiseless.

Under
normal conditions, pump
noise
rises in pitch as
engine
speed
increases. It is also desirable to
allow for normal break-in wear of the pump prior
to replacement for excessive noise.

Pump Seized

Replace
pump.

Leak
In
Hose

Check
for leaks; using
soap
and water — tighten
clamps or replace
hoses.
Pump
Inoperative

Loose Belt — tighten belt — do not pry on housing.

Filter
Plugged — replace.

Exhaust Backfire

Check
for vacuum leaks — correct as necessary.
Check
air filter for excessive
restriction
— replace as necessary.

Check
anti-backfire valve — replace as necessary.

Induction System Backfire

Verify
engine
timing and distributor dwell.

Verify
accelerator pump charge. 146
