HURRICANE
F4
ENGINE
•
Late
Models.
The
Hurricane F4
engine
is equipped with a single-
action fuel pump (Fig.
E-31).
The fuel pump cam lever is activated by an eccentric on the
engine
camshaft. When the carburetor float
needle
valve
closes, accumulation of fuel in the pump
extends
the diaphragm spring.
This
action causes the rocker
arm
linkage to
become
inoperative until the pres
sure on the diaphragm and spring is reduced. The fuel pump discharge pressure is thus controlled by
the diaphragm spring.
This
provides a steady sup ply of fuel to the carburetor at a fairly constant
pressure.

Cap
A
surge pressure type fuel tank filler cap is used on
all
models.
This
is necessary to prevent fuel leakage
from
the cap vent opening when the vehicle is on a
side slope. Two spring loaded relief valves which
open when venting is required are built into the
cap.
Should the pressure valve
fail
to open, pressure
in
the tank may force fuel by the carburetor inlet
valve causing flooding.
Failure
of the vacuum valve may prevent flow of fuel to the carburetor. Should
the valves
fail
to vent install a new cap.
Note:
Vehicles having a
Fuel
Evaporative
Emis
sion System are equipped with a non-vent sealed gas cap. The sealed cap is designed to allow no
vapors to discharge to the atmosphere. No other type of cap is to be used on vehicles having this
type system.

Gauge Float Unit
The
fuel tank
gauge
float unit is mounted in the top
of the fuel tank and consists of a housing enclosing
a

with the fuel level in the tank.
On
V-6 and current production F4
engine
equipped vehicles, the fuel
outlet
pipe is integral with the
float
unit.
The fuel
outlet
pipe has a mesh filter on the inner end.
Note:
Under no circumstances should a fuel tank
gauge
be installed without a mesh filter element.
The
filter,
outlet
pipe, and float unit are locked as
an
assembly to the top of the fuel tank. To remove,
turn
the lock plate that secures the float unit
assembly.

Fuel
Lines
Check
lines and connections occasionally for leaks,
and
for severe kinks that might restrict the flow of
fuel. If an excessive amount of
dirt
is found in the
carburetor
or fuel pump, the fuel tank should be
drained
and the fuel lines blown out with com
pressed air.
All
rubber fuel lines and their respective clamps should be checked occasionally to be certain they
are
correctly positioned and not leaking. 133

GENERAL
The
major components of the exhaust system (Figs.

F-2 and F-3) are the exhaust manifold(s), ex
haust pipe(s), muffler and tail pipe. Differences in
the exhaust system occur depending on whether the vehicle is equipped with the Hurricane F4 or
Dauntless V-6 engine.
Note:
For service information on exhaust emission
control systems, refer to Section Fl and F2 of this
manual.
F-2. Hurricane
F4 Engine Exhaust System
On
the Hurricane F4 engine, the exhaust and in
take manifolds are separate units. The intake mani
fold is cast as an integral part of the cylinder head
and
is completely water jacketed.
This
construction
transfers
heat from the cooling system to the in
take riser and assists in vaporizing the fuel when
the
engine
is cold.
With
this construction, there is no heat control
valve on the
engine
and the only function of the exhaust manifold is to gather and direct the exhaust

Dauntless

Engine
Exhaust System
Each
of two cylinder banks of a Dauntless V-6 engine has an exhaust manifold. On late production engines the right exhaust manifold is equipped
with
a heat collector manifold which supplies heated air to the air cleaner. See Fig. F-5.
Each
cylinder
exhausts through its own individual port
into a branch of its exhaust manifold. These
branches
conduct exhaust
gases
into the main mani
fold branch which connects the exhaust pipe to
the muffler. A thermally-actuated heat control valve is located at the
rear
of the right exhaust
manifold.
This
valve has a bimetal thermostatic
spring
which holds it closed when the engine is
cold.
In
closed position, the valve deflects exhaust
gases
upward
through a passage in the intake manifold to the left exhaust manifold.
This
aids in vaporizing
fuel,
speeds
engine warm-up, and reduces oil
dilution.
Since
the valve plate is offset-mounted, the valve
will
be forced partially open at higher engine speed
and
load.
This
prevents excessive back pressure. 138

ture screw in (clockwise-leaner) until maximum
speed
(RPM) is reached. Continue turning in (clockwise) until
speed
begins
to drop; turn mixture
adjustment back out (counterclockwise-richer) un
til
maximum

Distributor
Check
the distributor number for proper appli
cation.
Check
the distributor cam dwell angle and
point condition and adjust to specifications or re place as required. (Specifications listed at the end
of this section)
Check
ignition timing and set at
0°
or
TDC.

Anti-iackfire
Diverter Valve
The
anti-backfire valve remains closed
except
when
the throttle is closed rapidly from an
open
position.
To
check the valve for proper operation, accelerate
the
engine
in neutral, allowing the throttle to
close
rapidly.
The valve is operating satisfactorily when
no exhaust system backfire occurs. A further check
to determine whether the valve is functioning can be made by removing from the anti-backfire valve
the large
hose
Which
connects to the check valve.
Accelerate the
engine
to allow the throttle to
close
rapidly.
The valve is operating satisfactorily if a
momentary interruption of rushing air is audible.
Fl-16.
Check Valve
The
check valve prevents the reverse flow of ex
haust
gases
to the pump in the
event
the pump
should, for any reason,
become
inoperative or should exhaust pressure ever
exceed
pump pressure.
To
check this valve for proper operation, remove the air supply
hose
from the pump at the
distri
bution manifold.
With
the
engine
running, listen for exhaust leakage at the check valve which is
connected to the distribution manifold.
Fl-17.
Air
Pump
Check
for proper drive belt tension with belt tension
gauge
W-283. The belt strand tension should be
50-60
pounds on a belt with previous service, meas
ured
on the
longest
accessible span
between
two pulleys. When installing a new belt, adjust the
tension to
60-80
pounds tension. DO NOT PRY
ON
THE DIE
CAST
PUMP
HOUSING.
To
check the pump for proper operation, remove the air
outlet
hose
at the pump.
With
the
engine
running,
air discharge should be
felt
at the pump
outlet
opening. The pump
outlet
air pressure, as determined by the relief valve, is preset and is not
adjustable.
The
air pump
rear
cover assembly, housing the pressed in inlet and discharge tubes, and the pres
sure relief valve are the only pump
components
recommended for service replacement. These parts
are
to be replaced only when damaged as a result
of handling or in the
event
the relief valve was
tampered with.
Fl-18.
Carburetor
Air
Cleaner
Every
6000
miles
[9,600
km.] clean the inside
sur
face at the sump and
refill
to indicated oil level with
SAE
40 or 50
engine
oil
above
32 F; SAE 20
below
32 F. Wash filter
element
in kerosene and
drain.
Reassemble the air cleaner.
More
frequent cleaning and replacement is advis able when the car is operated in dusty areas or on
unpaved roads. Accumulated dirt restricts air flow,
reducing fuel
economy
and performance.

REMOVAL
PROCEDURES
The
following paragraphs
give
the procedures for removing the major units of the Exhaust Emission
Control
System and the required equipment
needed.
Fl-20.
Air
Pump
Loosen
the air pump adjusting strap to facilitate
drive
belt removal. Remove the air pump air dis
charge hose(s) and air filter attachment. Separate
the air pump from its mounting bracket. At time of installation, torque tighten the air pump mounting
bolts
to
30-40
lbs-ft. [4,15 a 5,53 kg-m.]. Adjust
the belt strand tension to
50-60
pounds on a belt
with previous service and
60-80
pounds on a new
belt.
Fl-21.
Anti-Backfire
Diverter Valve
The
anti-backfire diverter valve removal requires disconnecting the
hoses
and bracket to
engine
at
taching screws.
Fl-22.
Air
Distribution
Manifold
and
Injection Tubes
In
order to remove the air distribution manifold
without bending the tubing, which could result in
fractures
or leakage, it is necessary to remove the
exhaust manifold as an assembly from the
engine.
After
the exhaust manifold assembly is removed
from
the
engine,
place the manifold in a vise and
loosen
the air distribution manifold
tube
retaining nuts at each cylinder exhaust port. Tap the injec
tion
tubes
lightly to allow the air distribution mani
fold to be pulled away partially from the exhaust manifold. The stainless steel injection
tubes
in the
exhaust manifold may have
become
partially fused
to the air distribution manifold and, therefore, may
require
application of heat to the joint in order to
separate. While applying heat to the joint, rotate
the injection
tubes
with pliers being careful not to
damage the
tubes
by applying excessive force.
At
time of installation, the air injection
tubes
must
be positioned into the exhaust manifold prior to
placing the exhaust manifold assembly on the en gine.
Note:
Two different length injection
tubes
are used.
The
shorter length injection
tubes
must be inserted into cylinders 1 and 4. 145
