DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

Fuel Handling Precautions
Fuel vapour is highly flammable and in confined
spaces is also explosive and toxic. The vapour is
heavier than air and will always fall to the lowest
level. The vapour can be easily distributed
throughout a workshop by air currents;
consequently, even a small spillage of fuel is
potentially very dangerous.
The following information provides basic precautions
which must be observed if fuel is to be handled
safely. It also outlines other areas of risk which must
not be ignored. This information is issued for basic
guidance only, if in doubt consult your local Fire
Officer.
General
Always have a fire extinguisher containing FOAM,
CO
2, GAS or POWDER close at hand when handling
or draining fuel or when dismantling fuel systems.
Fire extinguishers should also be located in areas
where fuel containers are stored.
Always disconnect the vehicle battery before
carrying out dismantling or draining work on a fuel
system.
Whenever fuel is being handled, drained or stored, or
when fuel systems are being dismantled, all forms of
ignition must be extinguished or removed; any
leadlamps must be flameproof and kept clear of
spillage.
WARNING: No one should be permitted to repair
components associated with fuel without first
having specialist training.
WARNING: Do not remove fuel system
components while the vehicle is over a pit.
Fuel tank draining
Fuel tank draining should be carried out in
accordance with the procedure outlined in the FUEL
DELIVERY section of this manual and observing the
following precautions.
WARNING: Fuel must not be extracted or drained
from any vehicle while it is over a pit. Extraction
or draining of fuel must be carried out in a well
ventilated area.
The capacity of containers must be more than
adequate for the amount of fuel to be extracted or
drained. The container should be clearly marked
with its contents and placed in a safe storage
area which meets the requirements of local
authority regulations.Fuel tank removal
When the fuel line is secured to the fuel tank outlet by
a spring steel clip, the clip must be released before
the fuel line is disconnected or the fuel tank is
removed. This procedure will avoid the possibility of
fumes in the fuel tank being ignited when the clip is
released.
As an added precaution, fuel tanks should have a
'FUEL VAPOUR' warning label attached to them as
soon as they are removed from the vehicle.
Fuel tank repairs - plastic tank
No attempt should be made to repair a plastic fuel
tank. If the structure of the tank is damaged, a new
tank must be fitted.
Body repairs
Plastic fuel pipes are particularly susceptible to heat,
even at relatively low temperature, and can be
melted by heat conducted from some distance away.
When body repairs involve the use of heat, all fuel
pipes which run in the vicinity of the repair area must
be removed, and the tank outlet plugged.
WARNING: If welding is to be carried out in the
vicinity of the fuel tank, the fuel system must be
drained and the tank removed before welding
commences.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Air Conditioning System Precautions
General
The air conditioning system contains fluids and
components which could be potentially hazardous to
the service engineer or the environment if not
serviced and handled correctly. The following
guidelines are intended to alert the service engineer
to potential sources of danger and emphasise the
importance of ensuring the integrity of the Air
Conditioning operating conditions and components
fitted to the vehicle.
Where necessary, additional specific precautions are
detailed in the relevant sections of this Manual which
should be referred to prior to commencing repair
operations.
The refrigerant used in the air conditioning system is
HFC-134a (Hydrofluorocarbon) R134a.
WARNING: Servicing must only be carried out by
personnel familiar with both the vehicle system
and the charging and testing equipment. All
operations must be carried out in a well
ventilated area away from open flame and heat
sources.
WARNING: R134a is a hazardous liquid and when
handled incorrectly can cause serious injury.
Suitable protective clothing, consisting of face
protection, heat proof gloves, rubber boots and
rubber apron or waterproof overalls, must be
worn when carrying out operations on the air
conditioning system.
Remedial actions
If an accident involving R134a should occur, conduct
the following remedial actions:
lIf liquid R134a enters the eye, do not rub it.
Gently run large quantities of eye wash over
affected eye to raise the temperature. If an eye
wash is not available, cool, clean water may be
used to flush the eye. After rinsing, cover the
eye with a clean pad and seek immediate
medical attention.lIf liquid R134a is splashed onto the skin, run
large quantities of water over the affected area
to raise the temperature. Implement the same
action if the skin comes in contact with
discharging cylinders. Wrap the contaminated
body parts in blankets (or similar materials) and
seek immediate medical attention.
lIf the debilitating effects of inhalation of R134a
vapour is suspected, seek fresh air. If the
affected person is unconscious, move them
away from the contaminated area to fresh air
and apply artificial respiration and/or oxygen
and seek immediate medical attention.
WARNING: Due to its low evaporating
temperature, R134a must be handled with care.
R134a splashed on any part of the body will
cause immediate freezing of that area. Also,
refrigerant cylinders and replenishment trolleys
when discharging will freeze skin to them if
contact is made.
Service precautions
Observe the following precautions when handling
components used in the air conditioning system:
lAir conditioning units must not be lifted by their
hoses, pipes or capillary lines.
lHoses and lines must not be subjected to any
twist or stress; the efficiency of the system will
be impaired by kinks or restrictions. Ensure that
hoses are correctly positioned before tightening
couplings, and ensure that all clips and supports
are utilised.
lFlexible hoses should not be positioned close to
the exhaust manifold (less than 100mm) unless
protected by heat shielding.
lCompleted assemblies must be checked for
refrigeration lines touching metal panels. Any
direct contact of components and panels may
transmit noise and so must be eliminated.
lThe appropriate torque wrench must be used
when tightening refrigerant connections to the
stipulated value. An additional spanner must be
used to hold the union to prevent twisting of the
pipe when tightening connections.
lBefore connecting any hose or pipe, ensure that
refrigerant oil is applied to the seat of the new 'O'
rings, BUT NOT to the threads of the
connection.
lAll protective plugs must remain in place to seal
the component until immediately prior to
connection.
lEnsure components are at room temperature
before uncapping, to prevent condensation of
moisture from the air that enters it.

FRONT SUSPENSION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 60-19
The right hand end of the torsion bar has a machined spigot which provides for the attachment of the forged steel
short and long arms. The spigot for the short arm is splined and mates with splines in the short arm. The short arm is
located in a specific position on the splines and clamped to the spigot with a Torx bolt and locknut. The short arm is
not a serviceable item other than the actuator attachment bush. The smaller spigot diameter locates the long arm.
The long arm is fitted with a slipper bush which is located on the spigot and secured with a large washer and a special
bolt. The slipper bush comprises two inner and two outer bushes which are installed from each side of the long arm.
The outer bushes have three lugs which locate in the long arm to prevent the bush from rotating. The long arm also
provides the attachment point for the actuator piston rod and the anti-roll bar link.
The actuator has a forked end which locates on the bush in the short arm and is secured with a bolt and nut. The
piston rod of the actuator locates through a hole in a cast boss on the long arm which is fitted with a special bush. A
shoulder on the piston rod seats in a hole in the bush and a locknut on the end of the piston rod secures the rod to
the long arm and bush.
The front torsion bar is attached to the front chassis cross member. Two rubber bushes are fitted to the torsion bar
and are located in clamp plates. The clamp plates are located in slots in the cross member and secured with bolts.
The rear torsion bar is attached to the tubular cross member at the rear section of the chassis. Two rubber bushes
are fitted to the torsion bar and are located in clamp plates. The clamp plates are located in fabricated brackets
attached to the tubular cross-member and secured with bolts.
Two anti-roll bar links are mounted on brackets on the front and rear axles. Each anti-roll bar link is fitted with a
spherical bearing at each end. One bearing is attached to the link at a 90
° angle. The threaded shank of the bearing
is located through a hole in a bracket on the axle and secured with a locknut; a washer is installed on the threaded
shank between the bearing and the bracket. The second spherical bearing is attached in-line with the link and locates
in the torsion bar on the left hand side and the long arm on the right hand side. The front anti-roll bar links are longer
than the rear links and are not interchangeable.
Accelerometers
Two accelerometers are used for the ACE system. The upper accelerometer is mounted on a bracket, behind the
headlining adjacent to the rear view mirror and the sunroof ECU. The lower accelerometer is located on a bracket on
the inner sill panel under the RH front floor.
The lower accelerometer is the primary sensor used to measure lateral acceleration of the vehicle for roll control. The
upper accelerometer is used by the ECU for roll correction and fault detection in conjunction with the lower
accelerometer.
Each accelerometer is a solid state capacitive acceleration sensor and operates on a 5 V supply from the ECU. The
upper and lower sensors can measure acceleration in the range of
± 1.10 g and return an output to the ECU of
between 0.5 and 4.5 V.
Failures of an accelerometer are recorded by the ECU and can be retrieved using TestBook. A special tool is required
to remove and replace a sensor in the bracket.
