clockwise for medium and high blower speed, as

desired. Low blower speed is automatic during

cooling operations.

4.
"Def-Pull". This knob should be pushed fully in.

Additional Cooling Hints

1.
The center barrel outlet in the dash may be rotated

to deflect air as desired or used to act as a shut off

door.

2.
The right and left ball outlets may be rotated to

deflect air in the direction desired. Each outlet has

a shut off valve operated by a knob approximately

4 in. inboard. When the knob is horizontal, the valve

is open.

3.
There are two (2) additional outlets in the bottom of

the ducts approximately 6" inboard from the valve

knobs. A rotating cover will open these outlets to

provide cool air for the feet if desired.

4.
When first entering a very warm car, open the

windows for a few minutes until the interior of the

car has cooled off.
Heating

1.
"Air Pull-Fan". Pull this knob fully out. Rotate

the knob clockwise for low, medium or high blower

speed as desired. If just a small amount of heat is

desired, leave the fan on low or medium speed and

regulate the temperature with the "Cool In-Hot Pull"

knob.

2.
"Air Cond-Pull". This knob should normally be

pushed fully in. However, during cool, damp days

it is possible, by pulling this knob fully out, to de-

humidify the air by passing it through the evaporator

core before reheating to the desired outlet

temperature.

3.
"Cool In-Hot Pull". Pull this knob out as far as

necessary to provide the temperature desired.

4.
"Def-Pull". Pull this knob all the way out for

maximum defrosting or de-icing. When the knob is

partly out, a portion of the hot air is used for de-

frosting and the balance is discharged through the

heater outlet.

GENERAL INFORMATION

In any vocation or trade, there are established proce-

dures and practices that have been developed after many

years of experience. In addition, occupational hazards

may be present that require the observation of certain

precautions or use of special tools and equipment. Ob-

serving the procedures, practices and precautions of

servicing refrigeration equipment will greatly reduce the

possibilities of damage to the customers' equipment as

well as virtually eliminate the element of hazard to the

serviceman.

PRECAUTIONS IN HANDLING REFRIGERANT-12

Refrigerant-12 is transparent and colorless in both the

gaseous and liquid state. It has a boiling point of 21.7^

below zero and, therefore, at all normal temperatures

and pressures it will be a vapor. The vapor is heavier

than air and is noninflammable, nonexplosive, non-

poisonous (except when in contact with an open flame)

and noncorrosive (except when in contact with water).

The following precautions in handling R-12 should be

observed at all times.

• All refrigerant drums are shipped with a heavy metal

screw cap. The purpose of the cap is to protect the

valve and safety plug from damage. It is good .prac-

tice to replace the cap after each use of the drum.

• If it is ever necessary to transport or carry a drum

or can of refrigerant in a car, keep it in the luggage

compartment. Refrigerant should not be exposed to

the radiant heat from the sun for the resulting in-

crease in pressure may cause the safety plug to

release or the drum or can to burst..

• Drums or disposable cans should never be subjected

to high temperature when adding refrigerant to the

system. In most instances, heating the drum or can

is required to raise the pressure in the container

higher than the pressure in the system during the

operation. It would be unwise to place the drum on a

gas stove, radiator or use a blow torch while pre-

paring for the charging operation, for a serious ac-

cident can result. Don't depend on the safety
plug - many drums have burst when the safety plug

failed.' Remember, high pressure means that great

forces are being exerted against the walls of the

container. A bucket of warm water, not over 125°F,

or warm wet rags around the container is all the heat

that is required.

• Do not weld or steam clean on or near the system.

Welding or steam cleaning can result in a dangerous

pressure buildup in the system.

• When filling a small drum from a large one, never

fill the drum completely. Space should always be

allowed above the liquid for expansion. If the drum

were completely full and the temperature was in-

creased, hydraulic pressure with its tremendous

force would result.

• Discharging large quantities of R-12 into a room can

usually be done safely as the vapor would produce

no ill effects, however, in the event of an accidental

rapid discharge of the system it is recommended

that inhalation of large quantities of R-12 be avoided.

This caution is especially important if the area con-

tains a flame producing device such as a gas heater.

While R-12 normally is nonpoisonous, heavy con-

centrations.. of it in contact with a live flame will

produce a toxic gas. The same gas will also attack

all bright metal surfaces.

• Protection of the eyes is of vital importance! When

working around a refrigerating system, an accident

may cause liquid refrigerant to hit the face. If the

eyes are protected with goggles or glasses, no

serious damage can result. Just remember, any

R-12 liquid that you can touch or that touches you is

at least 21.7"F. below zero. The eyeballs can't take

much of this temperature. If R-12 liquid should

strike the eyeballs, here is what to do:

1.
Keep calm.

2.
Do not rub the eyes! Splash the affected area with

quantities of cold water to gradually get the tem-

perature above the freezing point. The use of min-

eral, cod liver or an antiseptic oil is important in

REAR SUSPENSION AND DRIVE LINE 4-30

Fig.
76—Differential Gear Failure

Hypoid Gears

Hypoid gear tooth scoring (fig. 74) is caused generally

by improper break-in, incorrect lube, insufficient gear

backlash or improper 'ring/pinion gear alignment. The

scoring will progressively lead to complete erosion of

the gear tooth, or gear tooth pitting and eventual fracture

with possible attendant damage to bearings, if the initial
scoring condition is not diagnosed in time and corrected.

Hypoid gear scoring is easily recognized by its char-

acteristic loud whine in either drive, coast or under both

conditions. Another cause of hypoid tooth fracture (fig.

75) is extended overloading of the gear set which will

produce fatigue fracture, or shock loading which will

result in sudden failure.

Differential Gears

Common causes of differential gear failure are shock

loading, extended overloading leading to fatigue failure,

and overheating of gear thrust surfaces resulting from

excessive wheel spin and consequent lubrication break-

down. Overheating will lead to seizing of thrust surfaces

or tooth failure (fig. 76).

Bearings

• Failure of axle tapered roller bearings is due pri-

marily to excessive wear caused by long service or

foreign materials in the oil. The second most common

cause of bearing failure is too tight or too loose pre-

load adjustment leading to spalling and eventual failure.

This failure may also lead to hypoid gear scoring due to

the resultant misalignment of the hypoid gear set.

is at the full mark on the dip stick, it is just slightly be-

low the planetary gear unit. If additional oil is added,

bringing the oil level above the full mark, the planetary

unit will run in the oil, foaming and aerating the oil. This

aerated oil carried through the various oil pressure pas-

sages (low servo, reverse servo, clutch apply, converter,

etc.) may cause malfunction of the transmission assem-

bly, resulting in cavitation noise in the converter and

improper band or clutch application. Overheating may

also occur.

If the transmission is found consistently low on oil, a

thorough inspection should be made to find and correct

all external oil leaks.

PERIODIC OIL CHANGE

The transmission oil should be changed periodically as

recommended in Section 0, and whenever transmission is

to be removed from the vehicle for repairs.

1.
Run engine for one minute in neutral prior to chang-

ing.

2.
Be sure vehicle is level or raise from the rear only.

3.
Remove the oil pan drain plug and allow oil to drain

thoroughly into a pan or can.

Replace drain plug and refill with approximately two

quarts of oil specified in Section 0.

NOTE: To refill the transmission, remove dip

stick from oil filler tube and refill transmission

with oil specified in Section 0 using filler tube

and funnel J-4264. Then, after shifting into all

ranges at idle speed to fill all oil passages, the

engine should be run at 800-1000 rpm with the

transmission in Neutral until the oil warms up,

then add oil as required to raise the fluid level

to the full mark on the dip stick. Refill capacity

is approximately 2 qts.

PERIODIC LOW BAND ADJUSTMENT (Fig. 1PG)

Low band adjustment should be periodically performed

at 12,000 mile intervals, or sooner, as necessary if op-

erating performance indicates low band slippage.

1.
Raise vehicle and place selector lever in neutral.

2.
Remove protective cap from transmission adjusting

screw.

3.
a. On Corvette Models: Drop left exhaust pipe for

clearance.

b.
On Chevelle Models: To gain clearance between

underbody and transmission, it may be necessary

to remove rear mount bolts from crossmember,

and move transmission slightly toward passenger

side of vehicle. .

4.
Loosen adjusting screw lock nut 1/4 turn and hold in

this position with wrench.

5.
Using Special Tool J-21848 adjust band to 70 in. lbs.

and back off four (4) complete turns for a band which

has been in operation for 6,000 miles or more,.or

three (3) turns for one in use less than 6,000 miles.

CAUTION: Be sure to hold the adjusting screw

lock nut at 1/4 turn loose with a wrench during"

the.adjusting procedure.

6. Tighten the adjusting screw lock nut to specified

torque.

CAUTION: The amount of back-off is not an

approximate figure, it must be exact.

MANUAL SHIFT LINKAGE CHECK & ADJUST

(Column Type)

1.
The shift tube and lever assembly must be free in the

mast jacket. See Section 9 for alignment of steering

column assembly if necessary.

2.
To check for proper shift linkage adjustment, lift

the transmission selector lever towards the steering

wheel. Allow the selector lever to be positioned in

drive (D) by the transmission detent.

NOTE: Do not use the indicator pointer as a

reference to position the selected lever. When

performing linkage adjustment, pointer is ad-

justed last.

3.
Release the selector lever. The lever should be in-

hibited from engaging low range unless the lever is

lifted.

4.
Lift the selector lever towards the steering wheel,

and allow the lever to be positioned in neutral (N) by

the transmission detent.

5.
Release the selector lever. The lever should now

be inhibited from engaging reverse range unless the

lever is lifted.

6. A properly adjusted linkage will prevent the selector

lever from moving beyond both the neutral detent, and

the drive detent unless the lever is lifted to pass

over the mechanical stop in the steering column.

7.
In the event that an adjustment is required, place

the selector lever in drive (D) position as determined

by the transmission detent. See Steps 2 and 3.

8. Loosen the adjustment swivel at the cross-shaft,

and rotate the transmission lever so that it contacts

the drive stop in the steering column.

9. Tighten the swivel and recheck the adjustment. See
