Toothed belt for water pump : ........................................................ 150to180N( 15to18kg)33to40lb
NOTE : Insufficient tension reduces considerably the reliability of the toothed belt.
Tension in excess of 180 N ( 18 kg ) ( 40 Ib ) will cause whistling noises.
Consequently. adjust toothed belt tension as tight as possible without it whistling tighten until it whistles whilst
running. and slacken until the noise disappears.

1. Checking the operation of the air-conditioning :
Faulty operation may be due to the following
Insufficient quantity of R.12 fluid, caused by
improper filling 01 a leak.
Water in the system.
Insufficient quantity of fluid may be detected by examining the transparent index mark of the de-watering tank.
This lack of fluid would be shown up by the appearance of air-bubbles during operation.
The presence of water is shown up by the formation of a small quantity of ice near the pressure release valve
which causes irregular functioning of the system.
In both cases. the system must be drained. the circuits niust be put under vwzuum (to eliminate any trace of
water ). and refilled with R.12 fluid. 2. Corburation
: Adjusting the idling speeds (as soon as electric coolinq fans cut out )
a) Vc,hirlcs wi/hou/ loryue con wrtcr :
Engine idling speed 850 to 900 rpm ( compressor switched off )
Fast idling speed 1000 to 1050 rpm ( compressor in operation )
b) Vrhirles with torque co~twrt~~r
Engine idling speed 700 to 750 rpm ( compressor switched off )
Fast idling speed 725 to 775 rpm ( handbrake on, vehicle immobilised. one gear engaged, and compressor
switched off 1
The fast idling speed is adjustable by means of adjusting screw located on top of the vacuum capsule on the
cmburettor. NOTE
: In case the fast idle is impossible to obtain, the vacuum capsule may be moved ( slacken both fixing
screws on carburettor ). in order to reduce the clearance at the fixing point of the rod controlling the first
choke butterfly opening. 3. Adjusting the pulleys :
Camshaft pulley-water pump pulley no aligning to be carried out
Toothed belt tensioner-water pump pulley L = 2’ - 0.5 mm. this value to be obtained by placing shims
between the tensioner and its mounting plate. c
Water pump /
In
Alternator drive
Tensioner
Compressor-water pump alignment to within 0.5 mm by placing shims ( 1 ) between the compressor mounting
plo& and the clutch housing.
Tensioner -compressor alignment to within 0.5 mm by
movement of the tensioner mounting plate in its slots. 4. Tensioning the belts :
Trapezoidal belts for compressor :
- Fitting tension 40 to 50 daN ( 40 to 45 kg ) ( 88 to 99 lb )
- Operating tension 25 daN ( 25 kq ) ( 55 lb )
- Toothed belt driving water-pump : 15 to 18 doN ( 15 to 18 kg ) ( 33 to 40 Ib ) NOTE
: Insufficient tension will considerably reduce the reliability of the toothed belt.
A tension stronger than 18 daN ( 18 kg ) ( 40 lb ) will cause the belt to whistle.
Consequently, adjust the belt at the limit of the noise : tension it until it whistles while running. then reduce
tension until the noise disappears.
