The Corvair Corsa models are operated and main
tained as outlined for the regular Corvair. Additional
instrumentation and operating instructions peculiar to
Corsa models only are reviewed in the following pages.
A high-performance (140 hp Turbo-Air 164) engine
is provided as the standard engine for Corsa models. The
optionally available turbocharged engine is designed
around the Turbo-Supercharger and all the related parts
22
are necessary for proper performance. Under no con
ditions should the Turbo-Supercharger be removed and
installed on another car not equipped with the proper
engine.
Break-In Period-We recommend that the supercharger
not be used for the first 500 miles. Keep engine speed
below 2500 rpm to maintain negative readings on the
Manifold Pressure Gauge. From 500 to 1000 miles, short
bursts
are permitted but not sustained runs.
After the first 1000 miles, the car may be
driven to take full advantage of the power
from the supercharger.
Fuel and Engine Oil Requirements~Refer
to "Maintenance and Lubrication."
Air Recirculating Plate -This plate, the
same as used on
Air Conditioned Corvairs,
should be installed and removed as recom
mended on Page 15.
Detonation -Caused by low grade fuel,
faulty timing, carbon deposits or an over
filled crankcase, this condition is more serious
than on other engines. If detonation occurs
have your car checked by your Chevrolet
Dealer.
