power steering fluid FORD SIERRA 1983 1.G CVH Engines Workshop Manual

29Once clear of the gearbox, lift the engine
from the vehicle, taking care not to damage
the radiator fins (see illustration).
1.6 and 1.8 litre (R6A type)
30Proceed as described in paragraphs 1 to 5.
31Disconnect the coolant hoses from the
thermostat housing, noting their locations.
32Disconnect the lower radiator hose from
the coolant pump elbow and, where
applicable, disconnect the heater hose from
the T-piece on the lower radiator hose.
33On 1.6 engines, disconnect the coolant
hose from the central fuel injection (CFI) unit.
34Disconnect the brake servo vacuum hose
from the inlet manifold by carefully pressing
the clip on the inlet manifold connector into
the manifold using a screwdriver, and
withdrawing the hose.
35Disconnect the vacuum hoses from the
inlet manifold, noting their locations.
36On 1.6 litre engines, disconnect the two
hoses from the pulse-air system check valves
(see illustration).
37Gradually loosen the fuel inlet pipe union
on the CFI unit, to relieve the pressure in the
fuel system. Be prepared for fuel spray, and
take adequate fire precautions. Once the
pressure has reduced, disconnect the fuel
inlet and return hoses. Plug the ends of the
hoses to minimise petrol spillage.
38Disconnect the throttle cable, if
necessary.
39Disconnect the wiring from the following
components, as applicable.
Alternator
Starter motor
Oil pressure warning lamp switch
Temperature gauge sender
Engine coolant temperature sensor
Inlet air temperature sensor
Ignition coil
Throttle stepper motor
Throttle position sensor
Fuel injector
Cooling fan switch
Air charge temperature sensor
Engine earth strap to battery tray
40On 1.8 litre engine models with power
steering, slacken the power steering pump
pulley bolts, then remove the alternator/power
steering pump drivebelt. Remove the pulley,
unbolt the power steering pump from its
bracket, and move it clear of the engine.41Unscrew and remove the top engine-to-
gearbox bolts which are accessible from the
engine compartment.
42Apply the handbrake (if not already done),
jack up the front of the vehicle and support it
on axle stands (see “Jacking and Vehicle
Support”).
43Drain the engine oil into a suitable
container.
44Remove the starter motor.
45Disconnect the exhaust gas oxygen
sensor wiring connector, then remove the
exhaust downpipe.
46Disconnect the wiring plug from the
crankshaft speed/position sensor.
47Unscrew the two nuts securing the engine
mountings to the crossmember. Recover the
washers.
48Unscrew and remove the remaining
engine-to-gearbox bolts, noting the location
of the earth strap and any wiring brackets,
and remove the two bolts from the engine
adapter plate (see illustration).
49Unscrew the securing bolt, and remove
the crankshaft speed/position sensor shroud
(where fitted).
50On 1.6 litre engines, working inside the
vehicle, place a wooden block under the
clutch pedal to raise it fully against its stop.
This will hold the automatic adjuster pawl
clear of the toothed quadrant. Disconnect the
clutch cable from the release arm, and pass
the cable through the bellhousing. Note the
cable routing for use when refitting.
51Proceed as shown in paragraphs 25 to 29.Note: A suitable hoist and lifting tackle will be
required for this operation.
1Proceed as described in Section 8,
paragraphs 1 to 15 inclusive. Additionally, if
applicable disconnect the kickdown cable
from the carburettor.
2Unscrew and remove the top engine-to-
transmission bolts which are accessible from
the engine compartment. Note the location of
the vacuum pipe bracket and transmission
dipstick tube bracket.
3Proceed as described in Section 8,
paragraphs 17 to 21 inclusive.
4Working through the starter motor aperture,
unscrew the four torque converter-to-
driveplate nuts. It will be necessary to turn the
crankshaft using a suitable spanner on the
crankshaft pulley bolt in order to gain access
to each nut in turn through the aperture.
5Unscrew and remove the remaining engine-
to-transmission bolts, noting the location of
the earth strap, and remove the two bolts
from the engine adapter plate. Where
applicable pull the blanking plug from the
adapter plate.
6Lower the vehicle to the ground and
support the transmission with a trolley jack,
using a block of wood between the jack and
the transmission to spread the load.
7Make a final check to ensure that all
relevant wires, pipes and hoses have been
disconnected to facilitate engine removal.
8Attach a suitable hoist to the engine lifting
brackets located at the front and rear of the
cylinder head, and carefully take the weight of
the engine. The engine should be supported
horizontally, ie do not allow it to tilt front to rear.
9Raise the engine until the engine mounting
studs are clear of the crossmember, then pull
the engine forwards to disconnect it from the
transmission. Ensure that the torque converter
is held firmly in place in the transmission
housing, otherwise it could fall out resulting in
fluid spillage and possible damage. It may be
necessary to rock the engine a little to release
it from the transmission.
10Once clear of the transmission, lift the
engine from the vehicle, taking care not to
damage the radiator fins.
Note: A suitable hoist and lifting tackle will be
required for this operation.
1.8 litre (R2A type)
