there is a relief valve that
opens
to reduce high
(dangerous) pressures in the fuel tank. In con­

junction
with the pressure relief valve there is a
vacuum
relief valve to
stop

System Inspection Test

The
fuel emission vent system should be checked

carefully
to ensure the absence of any leaks to the
atmosphere of either liquid or vapor which might
affect the accuracy, safety, or performance of the control system.

To
assure that the sealed system has been properly

installed,
the following
test
procedure has been
developed.
Disconnect the vent line from the fuel tank system
to the activated charcoal canister, induce l/i p.s.i.
air
pressure. If this pressure can be maintained for

a
few seconds the vent system is assured to be sealed. DO NOT add air pressure to the canister
because damage can occur to the demand valve if
care
is not taken.

CARBURETOR
—
HURRICANE
F4
ENGINE

A
single-barrel manual choke, down-draft carbure­
tor (Fig. E-6) is used on the
Hurricane
F4 engine.
The
carburetor is internally vented by a tube
opening located in the air horn body of the
car­

buretor.
This
opening is connected by a rubber
tube to the air
outlet
horn of the air cleaner thus
allowing only filtered atmospheric pressure air
to enter the float chamber for balance pressure
of the carburetor fuel.

Note:
A carburetor with a specific flow character­

istic
is used for exhaust emission control. The
carburetor
is identified by a number, and the correct

carburetor
must be used, when replacement is
necessary.

Early
production models
CJ-3B,
CJ-5,
CJ-5A,
CJ-6,
and
CJ-6A
have a
Carter
YF-938SD
carbure­
tor superseding the earlier
YF-938SC,
YF-938SA,

or
YF-938S
models.

Note."
Conversion kits for changing earlier models
to SD models are available. See Par E-23. It is recommended that when a carburetor is converted
that a tag be fashioned stamped with the new model number and installed under one of the air

horn
screws.
Look
for such a tag to determine if
the carburetor has previously been converted.

Carburetors
listed above are all in the same YF
series and have only minor differences. Descriptions
and
repair procedures given in the following
para­
graphs apply equally to all
YF-series
carburetors.
YF-series
carburetors employ manual and vacuum
control of the metering rod and accelerator pump.
The
carburetor controls and vaporizes the fuel
through five separate systems: float system, low-
speed system, high-speed system, choke system,

and
accelerating-pump system. A description of the function and operation of each system provides an over all description of the carburetor.

For
identification, the series designation is stamped
on the body under the name
Carter
and the model
designation is stamped on a flange protruding
from
the body.

Note:
When checking for carburetor icing causes,
also check the vacuum-pump-to-manifold vacuum
line connector. 113

and power range. The metering rod
is both mechanically and vacuum controlled and is
attached to the metering rod arm assembly.
During
part-throttle operation, vacuum in chamber

pulls
diaphragm down, holding metering arm
assembly against pump lifter
link.
Movement of the metering rod is controlled by the
pump lifter
link
which is attached to the carburetor
throttle shaft. At all
times
vacuum in the chamber
is strong
enough
to overcome the tension of pump

diaphragm
spring. Upper pump spring serves as

a
bumper upon deceleration and as a delayed
action spring upon acceleration. Under any operat­ ing condition, when the pump diaphragm spring
overcomes vacuum in the chamber, the metering

rod
will
move
toward the wide throttle (power) position.

Note:
Nozzle is pressed in and should not be
removed.

E-16.
Metering Rod Adjustment

Check
metering rod adjustment each time the

carburetor
is reassembled. Before adjustment is
made, be sure that the flat of metering rod arm
is parallel to the flat of pump lifter
link
as shown
(Fig.
E-10.).
With
the throttle valve
seated
in
car­

buretor
bore, press down on the upper end of
diaphragm
shaft until the diaphragm
bottoms

in
the vacuum chamber. The metering rod should
now
seat

arm
flat against the pump lifter
link.

be­
fore the metering rod arm makes flat contact with the pump lifter link, make adjustment by bending
the lip on the metering rod arm.

E-17.
Choke System

The
choke system consists of a manually-operated
choke valve, a fast-idle connecting rod, and a fast-
idle arm. The choke valve is offset-spring loaded to prevent over-choking during the starting warm-
up period. When the choke valve is moved to a closed position for starting, the fast idle connector

rod
in Fig. E-ll revolves the fast idle link.
This
action increases the
engine
idle speed to prevent stalling during the warm-up period. A fast-idle
connector rod return spring prevents partial closing
of the choke valve. pump lifter which is connected to the throttle.

This
movement forces fuel from the chamber
above the diaphragm through discharge pump check valve and discharge pump jet.
This
auxiliary discharge of fuel supplies
engine
requirements for

quick
acceleration and heavy loads. When the
throttle is closed, the diaphragm is again pulled
down by high vacuum and another measured
charge of fuel enters the chamber above the
diaphragm
through the intake passage to be
available for the next cycle of operation.

Note:
The pump jet (see insert drawing in Fig.

E-12)
projecting into the air stream is permanently pressed into the carburetor body and should not
be removed. Also, carburetor design makes it im­ possible to adjust the pump stroke.

E-19.
Accelerating Pump System

The
accelerating pump system shown in Fig. E-12
provides a measured amount of fuel for rapid acceleration and smooth
engine
operation when
the throttle is opened at lower speeds. In operation,
vacuum
is applied to the underside of diaphragm
at all times when the
engine
is running.
Lower

and
more uniform vacuum is provided by vacuum
restriction
and vacuum bleed passage. When the
diaphragm
is in its maximum down position at
low throttle resulting from high vacuum in chamber the chamber above the diaphragm is full of fuel

which
has been admitted through intake passage.
When
the throttle is opened, vacuum drops in the
chamber and the diaphragm is initially forced
upward
by the spring on the diaphragm shaft.
The
upward motion is picked up by accelerator

Accelerating Pump Maintenance

If

acceleration is unsatisfactory, remove the
pump diaphragm and check the diaphragm for wear

or
damage. Then remove the pump check retainer
ring
located directly above the pump check weight

and
pump ball check. Pump ball check must seat

properly
as a leak
will
cause poor acceleration performance. Inspect and replace all worn or
damaged parts.
Clean
and blow out all passages

with
compressed air.
Note
that when testing the pump for discharge volume with the carburetor
off the engine, only half of the maximum pump capacity
will
be discharged. When the
engine
is
operating, vacuum controls the balance of dis­ charge. 116

Inasmuch
as a flat
spot
on acceleration or low speed
stumble can
come
from causes other than
car­

buretor
malfunction, it is recommended that
engine

tuning be thoroughly checked before attempting
any
actual carburetor work. Make sure that
ignition, compression, and timing are correct and
that fuel pump is supplying enough gas. Also, the F-head
engine
employs a water-heated intake

manifold.
Proper vaporization of the fuel depends
on correct intake manifold temperature. Since this
temperature is controlled by the cooling system
thermostat, include an operational check of the
thermostat when diagnosing the stumble. Operating
temperatures consistently below
155°F.
can cause stumble.

If
the stumble persists, a
YF-938-S,
YF-938-SA,

or
YF-938-SC
carburetor can be converted to a
YF-938-SD
carburetor by installing Special Kit
924161, consisting of a pump discharge check
needle, a metering rod, and a metering rod jet. If this kit is installed, the pump discharge check

needle
replaces the original
ball,
weight, and re­

tainer
and the small wire-type retainer used with
the
ball
check assembly must not be reinstalled.

When
installing the kit, check the size of the pump discharge jet, No. 2, Fig. E-14.
Early
production
YF-938S
and
YF-938SA
carburetors have a .025" [0,635 mm.] jet installed. If the carburetor being
converted has a .025" jet it must be opened up to .031" [0,787 mm.] by running a No. 68
drill
through
the jet as shown in
Fig.
E-14.
The jet must be drilled
as it is a pressed in part and cannot be replaced.
Upon
completing the installation of the conversion

kit,
mark
or tag the carburetor to indicate that it
is a

Steep-Grade
Carburetor
Kit

In
the
field
where a vehicle equipped
with
Carter carburetor 938-S is required to
idle
on
steep

slopes,
flooding
of the carburetor sometimes results.

A
steep-grade
carburetor kit is available that
will

allow satisfactory
idle
operation under this condi­

tion.
This kit (Part
No.
#94481,
Carter # 75-960U)
contains a metering rod, a metering rod jet, and a
plug.

To
install
this kit, replace the standard metering

rod
and metering rod jet
with
those
contained in the
kit.
Place the small
brass
plug
in the accelerator
pump
well.
Exert
finger pressure only when in­

stalling
this
plug.
Forcing the
plug
in too far
will
damage
the accelerator
jet.
Make certain the meter­

ing
rod and
float
level
are set to specifications.

When
reworking
the carburetor to include this
steep-grade
kit, check to determine if the seal (Carter #121-172) and retainer (Carter #136-152)
are installed. If
these
parts are not present, they

should
be installed.

ENGINE

A
double-barrel, manual choke, down-draft car­
buretor (Fig. E-15) is used on the Dauntless V-6 engine.
Note: A carburetor
with
a specific
flow
character­

istic
is used for exhaust emission
control.
The
carburetor is
identified
by a number, and the
correct carburetor must be used, when replacement
is
necessary.

The carburetor
fuel
bowl
is located
forward
of
the main bores. The carburetor is compact in design

in
that all of the
fuel
metering is centrally located.
See Fig. E 16.

This
carburetor
uses
a calibrated cluster design

with
main
well
tubes,
idle
tubes, mixture
passages,
air
bleeds and pump jets in one removable as­

sembly.
This cluster assembly can be easily re­

moved
for cleaning and inspection purposes. It is

mounted
on a
flat
portion
of the carburetor
bowl

in
front
of the main
venturi.
The
idle
and main

well
tubes
are precision
pressed
fit in the cluster
body.
They cannot be serviced separately. The

main
nozzles and
idle
tubes
are
suspended
in the
main
wells of the
float
bowl.

The main metering jets are of the
fixed
type. A
system of calibrated air bleeds gives correct
fuel-

air
mixture throughout all operational
ranges.
This
carburetor has a vacuum-operated power sys­

tem
which
supplies extra
fuel
when needed. Power
mixtures
are regulated by drop in engine
manifold
vacuum,
regardless of throttle opening. Thus, addi­

tional
fuel
is supplied for power mixtures accord­

ing
to engine demands.
The accelerator pump plunger has a vapor vent

ball
in its head. This
ball
and its
seat
form
a valve

to
vent any
fuel
vapors
which
form
in the pump

well
to the
fuel
bowl
during hot-engine operation.
This
ensures
that the pump
well
and
passages
will

be primed
with
solid
fuel
at all times and im­ proves accelerator pump action. The carburetor is
internally
vented through a hole

in
the air horn.

Power System

A
vacuum-operated power piston in the air horn
and
a power valve in the
bottom
of the float bowl

enrich
fuel-air mixture when more power is desired.

This
system also operates during extreme high
speed driving. Through a vacuum passage from the
carburetor
base to the power cylinder, the power
piston is
exposed
to manifold vacuum. See Fig.

E-20.

During
idle and part throttle operation, relatively
high vacuum holds the power piston in upward

SYSTEM
position against spring tension so that the power
valve remains closed.

Increase
in
engine
load decreases manifold vacuum.

When
vacuum decreases sufficiently, the spring
overcomes vacuum and the power piston
moves
downward.
This
opens
the power valve to allow
additional fuel to flow through calibrated restric­
tions into the main well.

As
the
engine
load decreases, resulting higher

vacuum
overcomes spring tension on the power
piston and draws the power piston upward.
This

closes
the power valve.

This
carburetor has a
two-stage
power valve. In
the first
stage,
fuel is metered by the valve itself.
This
stage
occurs under light load. During heavy

load,
the valve is fully opened to the second
stage;

in
this position, the power valve supplies fuel to
be metered by power restrictions in the fuel chan­

nel
to the fuel bowl.

The
power piston cavity is connected to the main

air
flow passage by a vacuum relief passage.
This
passage prevents transfer of vacuum to fuel in the
float bowl. Any leakage of air past the piston
will

be compensated for by this relief passage; hence it

will
not affect carburetor metering.

Accelerator Pump System

When
the throttle valve
opens
rapidly, air flow

and
manifold vacuum change almost instantaneous­

ly.
However, heavier fuel-air mixture
does
not flow immediately.
Thus,
momentarily, the
engine
does

not have sufficient fuel. The accelerator pump pro­ vides additional fuel necessary for
engine
operation

during
acceleration.

A
double-spring loaded pump plunger supplies fuel for acceleration. Top and
bottom
springs
move
the
plunger to furnish a smooth, sustained charge of
fuel for acceleration. See Fig. E-21.

Fuel
is drawn into the pump well past the inlet
check ball during the plunger intake (upward)
stroke.
Downward
motion of the pump plunger
seats
the
inlet check ball and forces fuel through the dis­ charge
passage.
This
unseats
the pump discharge
check
ball.
Fuel
then sprays through the discharge

port into the venturi.

The
check
ball
in the pump plunger head is a vapor
vent for the pump well. Without this vent, vapor
pressure in the pump would force fuel from the
pump system into the
engine
manifold, causing

hard
starting when the
engine
is hot.
There
is another
hole
in the pump lever, into which
the accelerator pump rod can be inserted to pro­ vide quicker pump action.
This
adjustment setting
is used only in extreme cold temperature condi­ tions. The pump discharge check
ball
in the dis­
charge passage prevents discharge of fuel from the
pump nozzles when the accelerator pump is in­
operative.

E-31.
Choke System

The
choke system consists of a manually-operated
choke valve, a fast-idle connecting rod, and a fast-
idle arm. The choke valve is offset-spring loaded
to prevent over-choking during the starting
warm-
up period. When the choke valve is moved to a
closed position for starting, the fast idle connector

rod
revolves the fast idle
link.
This
action increases
the
engine
idle speed to prevent stalling during the

warm-up
period. A fast-idle connector rod return
spring
prevents
partial
closing of the choke valve.

The

Nut springs, gaskets, and a glass sediment bowl complete

The
metal pump body provides
a
work­
ing housing for the diaphragm, lever, valves, and springs. The fuel pump is mounted on the left side
of the
engine
and is actuated by an eccentric on the
camshaft. An air
dome
is cast into the metal cover
to relieve the carburetor
needle
valve and the fuel
pump diaphragm of excessive pressure when the

carburetor
needle
valve is closed.

Tracing
pump operation from the beginning, the
camshaft eccentric forces the diaphragm up, over­
coming spring pressure.
This
action creates a
partial
vacuum
in the pump chamber.
Fuel
from the main

tank
is forced into the low-pressure pump chamber
through the open disc valve. Incoming fuel supplies
the force necessary to open the valve, which is

a
one-way check valve. As the
engine
camshaft continues to rotate, spring pressure forces the

diaphragm
downward as the pump rocker arm
follows the camshaft eccentric to its low
spot.

The
downward action of the diaphragm
closes

the intake valve and forces fuel to the carburetor

reservoir
through the pump
outlet
valve. Both intake and
outlet
valves are one-way check valves
opened and closed by fuel flow. No mechanical components are required in the control of valve
operation.

Fuel
is delivered to the carburetor only when the float
needle
is off its seat. When the fuel level in the carburetor bowl is high enough for the float to
force the
needle
against its seat, pressure backs up
to the fuel pump air
dome
and causes the diaphragm
to
stop
pumping. In this position, the pump is said
to be balanced because the pressure in the pump- to-carburetor line equals that of the diaphragm

spring.
In this way, fuel from the pump to the
carburetor
is always under pressure. The carburetor

uses
fuel, causing the float to drop and
pull
the

carburetor
needle
valve off its seat. Pressure in the pump immediately drops as fuel is delivered to the

carburetor
reservoir. Almost instantaneously the

diaphragm
again starts operating to pump more 125

fuel. The diaphragm can start and
stop
many
times
in
each mile of vehicle operation, but the pump
actuating lihkage is always in operation while the

engine
is running. The fuel pump incorporates a
pulsator and pulsator chamber to dampen the
effect

of pump pressure pulsations on the carburetor

needle
valve.
This
prevents high fuel level in the

reservoir
that would result from the
needle
being

jarred
away from its seat. Also, operating
economy
would be affected because a high fuel level usually results in an over-rich mixture.

The
actuating linkage has its own spring to ensure
continuous contact of the lever to the camshaft
eccentric.

This
fuel pump has a sediment bowl and filtering
screen which is attached to the top of the pump by
a
wire clamp and thumb nut. The screen and sedi­
ment bowl should be cleaned at least twice yearly
to prevent trouble due to a blocked screen or water
freezing. The bowl should be washed and wiped

dry
and the screen dried and then cleaned with a
stiff
brush.
When reassembling the bowl make cer­
tain
that the cork gasket is not broken; reverse it
and
position it flat on the seat, then install the
bowl and tighten the thumb nut securely. After
cleaning, start the
engine
and carefully inspect the
bowl for leakage.

E-46.
Disassembly
Remove the cover plate, gasket, and screen or
bowl clamp, sediment bowl, gasket and screen if so equipped.
Mark
the two castings with a file to
ensure positioning in the same relation upon
assembly. Remove the screws attaching the fuel cover to the pump body. Remove the cover,

diaphragm,
and spring. Remove rocker arm pin,
rocker
arm, and rocker arm spring. Remove the
valve plate screw and separate the valve plate

retainer,
valve gaskets, and valves.

Clean
all parts in cleaning solvent and blow out

with
compressed air. Valves should not be removed

from
the valve housing assembly.
Check
all parts
to see that
they
have not
been
cracked or broken
and
that screw threads have not
been
stripped or
cross threaded. Refer to Par. E-49 for fuel pump
testing. 126
