32 Carefully ease the lip of the seal onto the
spigot and secure the carrier with the bolts and
washers (photo).
33 Similarly clean the crankshaft at the timing
belt end and fit the seal and carrier. Retain by
the two bottom bolts (photo). 34 Put the timing
indicator bracket over the two top bolt holes in
the seal carrier and fit the two top bolts (photo).

Sump - refitting
35 Make sure that there are no remnants of the
old gasket on the sump flange and fit a new
gasket using a little grease to hold it in position .
Check that it is bedded down evenly all round
the flange.
36 Fit the sump to the crankcase. Put the load
spreading washers on each bolt and screw into
the crankcase (photo).
37 Tighten the bolts evenly to avoid warping the
flange.
Auxiliary shaft and seal - refitting
38 Clean the auxiliary shaft bearings and
lubricate with clean engine oil.
39 Insert the shaft into the crankcase bushes
and rotate the shaft to spread the oil (photo).
40 Lubricate the auxiliary shaft seal in its carrie r
and carefully ease the seal over the shaft spigot
(photo).
41 Fit the seal carrier retaining bolts and
washers and tighten.
Belt pulleys and tensioner - refitting
42 Fit the toothed pulley to the auxiliary shaft.
The recess in the pulley fits on the auxiliary shaf t
with the dowel on the shaft in the hole in the
pulley (photo). Fit the retaining bolt and washer
and partially tighten, as it will be necessary to
wait until the drivebelt has been fitted before
finally tightening this bolt. Alternatively, it is
possible to hold the auxiliary shaft carefully in a
vice, fit the seal and carrier to the shaft, follow ed
by the toothed pulley and its retaining bolt and
washer, and then tighten the bolt fully before
fitting the complete assembly to the block.
43 The belt tensioner bracket can now be fitted.
Clean off all traces of old gasket from the
bracket and block and use a new gasket on
assembly. Fit the retaining bolts and washers
and tighten (photo).
44 Insert the spring-loaded plunger assembly
into the tensioner bracket (photo).
45 The tensioning wheel in its carrier can now
be fitted. Put the top bolt and washer in first and
then bear down to compress the spring and fit the bottom bolt through the kidney-shaped slot.
Note that this latter bolt has an additional, large
washer against the wheel carrier. Temporarily
tighten the two bolts they will have to be
retightened after the belt has been fitted (photo).

46 If the key had previously been removed from
the pulley end of the crankshaft, clean the key
slot and refit the key. Then slide on the bevelled
washer, making sure that the bevel is on the
side away from the crankcase (photo).
47 Refit the crankshaft toothed pulley (photo).
Then the V-belt pulley can be refitted together
with its retaining nut and washer. Final
tightening of this nut can wait until the flywheel
has been fitted, when a 'gag' can be fitted to the
flywheel to hold the crankshaft whilst tightening
the nut - see Chapter 1, photo 23.2A.

Cylinder head and valve gear-reassembly

48 It is assumed that the valves will have
already been examined and renovated as
described in Chapter 1, Section 31. Follow the
procedure given in Chapter 1, Section 51 to
reassemble the valves, but note that new oil
seals should be fitted to this engine when the
valves have been inserted in the guides and
before the springs are fitted (photos).
49 Each tappet bucket contains a shim in the
head which is used to control the valve
clearance. Before assembling the buckets to
their valves, prise out each shim and take a note
of the thickness. This is etched on the lower face
of the shim and indicates the thickness in
millimetres to two decimal places. If the number
has worn off, use a micrometer to check the
shim thickness. Make a table showing each
valve by number and the thickness of shim on
assembly. Reassemble each shim to its bucket
and after lubricating with clean engine oil fit the
buckets to their respective valves (photos).
50 Lubricate the two camshaft bearings in the
cylinder head and carefully thread the camshaft
through the driving end hole and lower it onto its
bearings. The cams will rest on the tappet
buckets and the camshaft should now be turned
so that the two cams over No. 1 cylinder (driving
end) are pointing upwards (compression/firing
stroke). This is to reduce the bending load on
the camshaft as the two bearing halves are
being tightened down (photo).
51 Lubricate the camshaft bearing halves and fit
them to their respective studs in the head. Put
the steel bridge plates in position and fit the
washers and nuts (photo).
52 Tighten the four nuts a little at a time

progressively until the bearing halves meet.

progressively until the bearing halves meet.
53 Oil the camshaft seal and carefully fit it with
its carrier and a new gasket to the cylinder head
(photo).
54 Position the drivebelt guard backplate over
the camshaft seal carrier and fit the three bolts
and washers (photo). 55 Tighten the three bolts
retaining the backplate and seal carrier. Torque
load the four camshaft bearing securing nuts to
the specified setting.
56 Fit the camshaft toothed driving pulley with its
bolt and washer. Leave the final tightening until
the drivebelt is fitted (photo).
57 Check the valve clearances; the camshaft
can be turned by a spanner on the pulley
retaining bolt. Readjust any clearance if
necessary, as described later in this Section.
58 Owing to the small clearance between a
piston at TDC and the open valves during
exhaust/inlet overlap, it is imperative to get the
crankshaft and camshaft in their correct related
positions before turning the engine after fitting
the cylinder head. If this relationship is out then
serious damage could be done to the valves or
pistons by turning the crankshaft, as the pistons
will impinge on the valve heads. To avoid this
the following sequence should be observed. Set
the crankshaft as described in paragraph 59,
and the camshaft (before assembling the
cylinder head to the block) also as described in
paragraph 59. Fit the head to the block taking
care not to disturb the set positions and, finally,
fit the toothed drivebelt. Then the crankshaft can
be turned with no likelihood of damage.
59 Set the crankshaft by using a spanner on the
pulley retaining nut and aligning the mark on the
pulley with the long pointer on the timing
indicator bracket. Then set the camshaft by
aligning the hole in the camshaft pulley with the
cast ridge on the top of the camshaft seal carrier
just behind the toothed pulley (photo).
60 Fit a new cylinder head gasket with the word
ALTO upwards (photo). Do not use grease or
any other jointing compound. 61 Taking care not
to disturb the crankshaft or camshaft lower the
cylinder head onto the block (photo).
62 Fit the thick washers to the studs on the
manifold side of the block followed by the nuts.
Fit the bolts with their thick washers to the other
side of the block and screw the bolts and nuts
down to lightly compress the gasket. The bolts
and nuts must now be torque loaded by stages
(see Specifications) in sequence, to the
specified load and in the order shown in
Fig.13.3. This may present some difficulty as,
owing to the shape of the cylinder head, it is not
possible to get a socket spanner fitted to a
torque wrench over the cylinder head nuts.
These can be tightened using a ring or open-
ended spanner as an extension to the torque
wrench, but then, of course, the applied torque
will be different to the torque registered or set o n
the torque wrench. To overcome this a simple
calculation can be made so that a setting can be
established for the torque wrench which, with an
extension, will produce the specified torque
loading. This value varies with the ratio of t he

Engine removal - 127 Special and 127
from chassis number 1104290 onwards
94 The removal of the engine assembly from
these models is slightly different from that
described in Chapter 1, owing to redesigned
engine mountings.
95 For the later type of mountings,
disconnection of the engine is achieved by
removal of the engine suspension mounting
securing bolts after taking the weight of the
assembly on a hoist.
96 On refitting the assembly tighten the securing
bolts to the specified torque load.
4. Fuel system

Carburettors - general
1 On L, C and CL models the 1049 cc engine is
fitted with either a Weber 32 ICEV 161150 or a
Solex C32 TDI/4 carburettor with a downdraught
single venturi and automatic coolant heated
choke (photos).
2 On Sport versions, a dual venturi Weber
carburettor is fitted with manual choke.

Removal and refitting
3 Remove the air cleaner
4 Disconnect the throttle cable (photo).
5 Disconnect the distributor vacuum pipe
(photo). 6 Disconnect the fuel flow and return
hoses 7 Disconnect the coolant hoses from the
automatic choke housing and tie the pipes as
high as possible to prevent coolant loss (photo).
8 Unbolt the carburettor flange mounting bolts
and lift the carburettor from the manifold.
9 Refitting is a reversal of removal, but use a
new flange mounting gasket
Dismantling and adjustment
10 Clean the outside of the carburettor, remove
the top cover screws and lift off the cover.
11 Clean out the float bowl.
12 Any jets or bleed screws if removed, should
only be cleaned by blowing air through them.
Never probe with wire or their calibration will be
ruined.
13 Check the float level by holding the
carburettor cover vertically so that the float
hangs down, and then measure between the
casting flange and the nearest point of the float.
Adjust if necessary by bending the float arm tab
until the clearance conforms with the
Specifications according to carburettor.
14 The automatic choke will not normally require
dismantling, but if the cover is removed, make
sure that the centre index marks on the cover
and housing are in alignment before tightening
the choke cover screws.
15 On later carburettors, the mixture screw is
fitted with a tamperproof cap and adjustment to
the slow-running should therefore be limited to
