Carburetor
Models 938-S, 938-
SA,
938-SC
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
YF-938SD.

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.

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

G-l. GENERAL
a.
The satisfactory performance of the Hurricane
F4
engine
is controlled to a great
extent
by the proper operation of the cooling system. The
engine
block is full length water jacketed which prevents
distortion of the cylinder walls. Directed cooling
and
large water holes, properly placed in the cylin
der head gasket cause more water to flow past the
valve
seats
(which are the
hottest
parts of the
block)
and
carry
the heat away from the valves, giving positive cooling of valves and seats.
Minimum
temperature of the coolant is controlled by a thermostat mounted in the
outlet
passage of
the engine. When the coolant temperature is below
thermostat-rated temperature, the thermostat re mains closed and the coolant is directed through
the radiator-bypass
hose
to the water pump. When the thermostat opens, coolant flow is directed to
the top of the radiator. The radiator dissipates the
excess
engine
heat before the coolant is recirculated
through the engine.
The
cooling system is pressurized. Operating pres
sure
is regulated by the rating of the radiator cap
which
contains a relief valve, b. The Dauntless V-6
engine
efficiency and performance is controlled to a great
extent
by proper
operation of the cooling system. The cooling system
does
more than cool the engine. It also directs
the flow of coolant to provide the
best
operating
temperature range for each part of the engine.
In
the Dauntless V-6
engine
coolant is forced by
the water pump into two main passages that run the length of the block on each side (Fig. G-l).

From
these
main passages, the coolant flows around
the
full
length of each combustion chamber.
After
cooling the block, the coolant passes through
ports between the block and each cylinder head.
These
ports direct most of the coolant flow around the exhaust valve area to prevent hot exhaust
gases
from
overheating the exhaust ports.
From
the cylinder heads, the water passes into a
water
manifold between each of the heads and the
water
pump. If the thermostat is closed, the coolant
is ported back to the pump where it is recirculated
back
into the pump and into the engine. After the
coolant heats enough to open the thermostat, the coolant is directed from the water manifold through
a
hose
to the top of the radiator and then through
the radiator which acts as a heat exchanger to cool the fluid. The coolant is then ported through a
hose
from
the bottom of the radiator to the pump, which
recirculates
it back to the engine.
The
cooling system is pressurized. Operating pres
sure
is regulated by a relief valve in the radiator
cap. The
heater inlet
hose
is connected to a port on
the right bank cylinder head. The outlet
hose
is connected to the heater adapter tube on the water
pump.
c.
It is recommended when using water for coolant
that the cooling system be flushed and checked for leaks twice a year, preferably in the
fall
before
antifreeze is added and in the spring when the antifreeze is drained.
Reverse
flushing
will
aid greatly in removing rust 162

COOLING SYSTEM and
the outlet
hose
is connected to the water pump
housing.
When
installing a new hose, clean the pipe connec
tions and apply a thin layer of nonhardening seal
ing compound. Hose clamps should be properly
located over the connections to provide secure fastening. The pressurized cooling system pressure
can
blow off improperly installed hoses.
G-8.
Cylinder
Block
Any
coolant leaks at the engine block water joints
are
aggravated by pump pressure in the water
jacket
and by pressure developed in the cooling system when the pressure cap is in place.
Small
leaks showing up only as moist
spots
often
cannot
be detected when the engine is hot except by the
appearance of rust, corrosion, and dye stains where
leakage evaporated. Also, expansion and contrac tion of the engine block resulting from extreme
temperature changes can aggravate leaks. For
these
reasons, when checking for coolant leaks inspect
the block when it is cold and while the engine is
running.
A
leaking
drain
cock or plug that cannot be stopped
leaking
by tightening should be replaced.
Leaking
core-hole expansion plugs should be replaced.
If
tightening gasketed joints
will
not correct leak
age, install new gaskets. Use a sealing compound
where recommended.
G-9.
Thermostat
a.
The cooling system of the engine is designed
to provide adequate cooling under most adverse conditions. However, it is necessary to employ
some
device to provide quick warming and to prevent
overcooling during normal operation. Automatic
control
of engine operating temperature is provided
by a water flow control thermostat installed in the
water
outlet of the
Hurricane
F4 engine. The ther
mostat is a heat-operated valve. It should always
be maintained in working order and the vehicle
should never be driven without one installed as there would then be no control of engine tempera
ture.
The temperature at which the thermostat
opens
is preset and cannot be altered.
b.
The thermostat on the
Hurricane
F4 engine is
located in a housing on the top front of the cylinder
head.
On the Dauntless V-6 engine it is located
in
the thermostat housing of the air intake manifold.
The
standard engine thermostat for the
Hurricane
F4
and Dauntless V-6 engine has a normal rating
of
190°F.
[87.8°C]
and should begin to open at
a
coolant temperature between
180°F.
[82°C]
to
192°F.
[89°C]
and be fully open at
202°F.
[94°C.].
See Fig. G-7 for method of testing.
When
the thermostat is not operating properly, the engine may
run
too hot or too cold. Overheating
may
damage the thermostat so that its valve
will
not function properly, and a cold engine
will
not achieve
full
efficiency.
Rust
can also interfere with
thermostat operation. To
test
the thermostat, place
it
in water heated approximately
25°F.
[17°C]
above the temperature stamped on the thermostat
valve.
Submerge the bellows completely and agitate
the water thoroughly. The valve should open fully.
Next, place the thermostat in water heated approxi-

TEST
mately 10°F.
[11°C]
below the temperature
stamped on the thermostat valve. Submerge the bellows completely and agitate the water thorough
ly.
The valve should close completely. If the ther
mostat fails either of
these
tests, it should be re placed with a new one of the same type and rating.
G-10. Temperature
Sending Unit
The
sending unit incorporates a temperature sens ing element that when it is surrounded by cold engine coolant, the unit provides the highest resist
ance in the temperature
gauge
indicator
circuit.
Resultant
low current flow in the circuit causes the
indicator
on the instrument panel to read at the low (C) end of the
gauge.
As engine coolant tem
perature
increases, the resistance of the unit is
decreased allowing an increased current flow in
the
circuit,
making the instrument panel
gauge
register in proportion to the temperature of the engine coolant.
To
test
the sending unit, first run the engine until
it
has had time enough to warm up.
If
no reading is indicated on the
gauge,
check the
sending unit to
gauge
wire by removing the wire
from
the sending unit and momentarily grounding
the wire. If the
gauge
now indicates, the sending
unit
is faulty. If the
gauge
still
does
not indicate, the wire is defective.
Repair
or replace the wire,

WATER PUMP
a.
Hurricane
F4 Engine.
The
water pump on the
Hurricane
F4
engine
is a
centrifugal
impeller type of large capacity to
cir
culate water in the entire cooling system. The double row
ball
bearing (Fig. G-9), is integral with
the shaft and is packed at assembly with a special
high melting point grease which
will
last the life of
the bearing. The bearing is sealed to retain the
lubricant
and prevent
dirt
and dust from entering.
The
bearing and shaft are retained in the water
pump body by the bearing retaining wire. The
water
seal bears against the ground seat on the
pump body and the inside of the impeller, maintain
ing a constant pressure against both and preventing
water
leakage. A
drain
hole
in the
bottom
of the
pump body precludes any water
seepage
past the
seal
from entering the bearing.
The
impeller and the pulley hub are pressed on
the shaft under high pressure,
b.
Dauntless V-6 Engine.
A
centrifugal-type water pump, shown in
Fig.
G-10,
circulates
coolant through the Dauntless V-6
engine
and
its cooling system.
This
pump is mounted on
the timing chain cover.
Similar
to the
engine
cooling
fan
mounted on its hub, the pump is driven through
a
V-belt from the crankshaft pulley.
Coolant
enters the water pump at its center.
Centri
fugal force then forces coolant radially outward, through vanes of the pump impeller, and backward
through two discharge passages in the timing chain cover. These passages conduct an equal amount of
coolant to each cylinder bank water jacket.
This
water
pump has a sealed double row
ball
bearing
and
a ceramic water seal, neither of which can be
serviced.
In
event
of bearing or water seal failure, the entire water pump assembly must be replaced.
G-l2.
Water
Pump Inspection
Check
the water pump for leaks, and excessive end play or
looseness
of the shaft in the pump. A
quick
way to check is to work the fan blades up
and
down by hand. If any play is noticed, this
indicates that the bearings are rough. Rough bearings should be checked to see if the water pump
should be replaced or rebuilt.
