connecting the water outlet housing from the ther-
mostat housing which is mounted on the right front
side of cylinder head.
The standard thermostat valve should start to open
at 189 degrees F and fully open at approximately 212
degrees F. If thermostat does not operate at specified
temperatures, it should be replaced as it cannot be
repaired.MAJOR REPAIR
WATER PUMP REPAIRSThe water pump bearing outer race is shrunk fit into
the water pump cover. For this reason the cover,
shaft bearing, and hub are not repairable.
Water Pump RemovalOpel radiators do not have a drain plug. Drain radia-
tor by first, loosening radiator cap, then remove
lower hose from lower radiator tank.
1. Drain coolant into a clean container. Remove
radiator and shroud.
2. Remove fan belt.
3. Remove fan blade and pulley on water pump shaft.
4. Disconnect inlet hose and heater hose from water
pump. Remove bolts, pump assembly and gasket
from timing chain cover.
5. Check pump shaft bearing for end play or rough-
ness in operation. If bearings are not in serviceable
condition, the assembly must be replaced.
Water Pump Installation1. Make sure the gasket surfaces on pump and timing
chain covers are clean. Install pump assembly with
new gasket. Bolts must be tightened uniformly.
Torque to 11 lb. ft.
2. Install radiator and shroud. Connect radiator hose
to pump inlet and heater hose to nipple.
3. Install fan pulley and fan blade, tighten attaching
bolts securely. Install belts and adjust for proper
tension.4. Fill cooling system and check
,for leaks at pump
and hose joints.
RADIATOR REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
RemovalI. Loosen radiator cap, then remove lower radiator
hose and drain radiator coolant into suitable con-
tainer.
2. On vehicles with automatic transmission, unscrew
oil lines from connectors on lower radiator tank and
plug lines. On GT models with automatic transmis-
sion the lines have to be disconnected at the coupling
before removing from the tank. It is essential that no
dirt enters the oil lines. When unscrewing oil lines,
hold connectors on lower radiator tank with pliers to
avoid leakages. Ensure that no dirt enters oil cooler.
3. Remove lower attaching nut and slide radiator
upward and out of engine compartment.
Installation1. Install radiat,or into engine compartment and se-
cure lower attaching nut.
2. On vehicles with automatic transmissions, fasten
oil cooler lines to lower radiator tank. It is essential
that no dirt enters the oil lines. When tightening oil
lines, hold connectors on lower radiator tank with
pliers to avoid leakages. Ensure that no dirt enters oil
cooler. Torque to 1 I-15
lbs.ft.3. Install lower radiator hose and add collected coo-
lant.
All Opels are provided with a radiator initial fill of
an antifreeze solution containing corrosion inhibitor.
The antifreeze has either a glycol or glycerin base
and protects the engine against freezing, down to
minus 22 degrees F. (minus 30 degrees C.). Before
the start of the cold season, coolant must be checked
with a hydrometer and if necessary, brought to the
necessary specific gravity by adding anti-freeze with
a glycol or glycerin base. As the specific gravities of
all anti- freeze solutions having a glycol or glycerin
base are practically the same, the hydrometer can be
used for all these types. Because of the tolerances of
the hydrometer, or slight differences in specific
gravity, variations of plus or minus 5 degrees can be
expected. Coolant must be checked at a temperature
of plus 68 degrees F. (plus 20 degrees C.)

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
FUEL PUMPThe 1.9 liter engine uses a push rod type fuel pump.
The push rod is actuated by an eccentric on the
distributor shaft. The push rod is held in contact
with the eccentric at all times by a push rod spring.
Each time the push rod is on the high part of the
eccentric, the lighter diaphragm spring will push the
diaphragm to replace any fuel used in the carburetor.
The diaphragm seldom operates through a full
stroke; under normal driving conditions, the dia-
phragm moves only a few tenths of an inch.
Fuel pump pressure is determined by the compres-
sion of the diaphragm spring. Low pressure or pres-
sure leak- down generally indicates a leaky
diaphragm or check valves.
Two holes in the lower part of the fuel pump serve
to ventilate the space below the diaphragm and to
drain any fuel which may have entered. If any fuel
comes from these holes, this indicates a defective
diaphragm.When replacing the fuel pump, make sure the asbe-
stos spacer is in place with a gasket on each side. See
Figure 6C- 1. Because of the location of the fuel pump
eccentric on the distributor shaft, the fuel pump

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
CARBURETORThe two-barrel carburetor for all 1973 Opel1
19G0,Manta and GT models is a down-draft carburetor
with two barrels of 1.25 inch diameter each. It has
an automatic choke and a secondary valve operated
by a vacuum diaphragm, except when installed in an
Opel GT. In the GT, the secondary throttle valve is
operated by mechanical linkage from the primary
throttle valve.
The two-barrel carburetor consists of three main
parts
- throttle body, float chamber and air horn.
Each barrel is a separate system, but both barrels
discharge into a common inlet in the intake mani-
fold. The secondary barrel does not have a choke
valve or an accelerator pump. See Figure
6E-2.The throttle valve of the primary barrel is opened
through the throttle linkage. When the primary
throttle valve is almost open, at approximately half
of the maximum engine RPM, the secondary throttlevalve is opened by vacuum applied through a
vacuum diaphragm case. See Figure
6E-3. The sec-
ondary throttle valve on the GT model is opened by
mechanical linkage from the primary throttle shaft.
Choke SystemThe automatic choke is operated by a bi-metal
spring. The tension of the spring
- depending on
temperature of the heater coil
- decreases with rising
temperature and the choke valve opens progressively
until it is completely opened at engine operating tem-
perature. The choke valve is off-set so that choke
valve opening increases as air flow increases.
If the choke valve is closed, the throttle valve is
opened slightly to provide a fast idle speed. This is
done through a cam, abutment lever and throttle
connecting link. With the throttle valve opened
slightly, the vacuum during cranking can take effect
up to the choke valve, thereby drawing ample fuel
out of the main nozzle. See Figure
6E-4.With rising temperature of the heater coil, the choke

the throttle valve until, the engine is at normal oper-
ating temperature, the choke valve is wide open and
the throttle valve is in slow idle position.
Idle and Part Throttle SystemA choke diaphragm is connected to the intermediate
lever of the choke valve spindle through a pull rod.
The vacuum, which develops below the throttle
valve, takes effect on the diaphragm through a
vacuum passage. See Figure
6E-4. As soon as the
engine starts, this vacuum pulls the choke valve
slightly open; the amount of choke valve opening
depends on the amount of vacuum, which depends
on the engine load. Therefore, with a light engine
load, the choke valve will open slightly; with a heavy
engine load, the valve will close slightly to give a
richer mixture as required for this engine load.At engine idle grid during low speed (part throttle)
operation, fuel is drawn from the emulsion tube bore,
controlled by the idle jet and mixed with air entering
through idle air bleeds (Figure 6E-1) and ports in thethrottle body. This mixture is drawn downward to
the three ports near the throttle valve. When the
throttle valve is closed, the mixture is drawn from
the lowest port and mixed with air by-passing the
throttle valve to form the idle mixture.
Turning the idle mixture screw (Figure
6E-1) inward
results in a leaner mixture, and turning it out results

MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS
CLUTCH LASH ADJUSTMENT
GTPedal lash, free pedal travel must be adjusted occa-
sionally to compensate for normal wear of the clutch
facings. As the driven plate wears thinner, pedal lash
decreases. Adjust clutch pedal free travel only with
ball stud located on right side of clutch housing if
cable length is not to be changed. To adjust pedal
lash proceed as follows:
1. Loosen lock nut on ball stud end located to the
right of the transmission on the clutch housing. Posi-
tion ball stud so that the outer end protrudes 3/4
inches out of housing and finger tighten lock nut. See
Figures
7A-1 and 7A-6.
2. Adjust ball stud, pivoting clutch release fork, to
obtain 3/4 to
l-1/4 inches pedal lash, free pedal. See
Figure 7A-6.
Opel 1900 and MantaThe clutch actuation works without clutch pedal free
travel. A readjustment of the clutch is only required
if the indicator lamp at the instrument panel lights
up.In synchronism with the gradual wear of the clutch
linings the clutch pedal travels from its basic adjust-
ment position upwards,
ie., towards driver. If the
clutch lining wear has reached such an extent that
the clutch pedal rests against switch, the indicator
lamp at the instrument panel lights up.
This is an indication that the clutch pedal position
has to be corrected to ensure proper clutch operat-
ion.
To
&~sure proper clutch operation, observe the fol-
lowing adjustment instructions.. For all adjustment
dimensions, refer to Figure 7A-7.
1. If the parking brake is provided with an indicator
lamp, the parking brake has to be disengaged, other-wise the same indicator lamp as for the clutch lights
UP.2. Carry out adjustment only with ball stud on clutch
housing whereby the distance (Item 20, Figure 7A-7)
between clutch housing contacting surface and
clutch release lever has to be adjusted in the rear to
4
l/4 inches.
Clutch Control Cable Adjustment(Only on
Installation of a New Clutch Disc or
Bowden
Control Wire)
GT1. Adjust ball stud so that outer end protrudes ap-
proximately 3/4 inches out of clutch housing.
2. Adjust distance between release lever and clutch
housing face at eye for control cable to approxi-
mately 4
l/4 inches. See Figure 7A-6. Hold cable in
this position and place E-ring two grooves ahead of
washer on rubber grommet. Clutch pedal free travel
is now between 3/4 and 1
l/4 inches and clutch
release bearing has proper clearance from pressure
plate.
Opel 1900 and Manta1. Adjust ball stud on clutch housing to basic dimen-
sion of approximately 3/4 inch. With lower end ofbowden control wire unhooked, push clutch release
lever towards the front so that the clutch release
bearing rests against clutch spring. Now, adjust ball
stud so that the dimension (Item 20, Figure
7A-7)between clutch housing contacting surface and
clutch release lever amounts in the rear to 4
l/4
inches.2. Pull reattached bowden control wire out of dash
panel so that clutch pedal rests against switch (in-
dicator lamp lights up).
3. In this position, install lockwasher at upper con-
trol wire attachment three grooves towards the front,
thereby completing control wire adjustment.

7A- 61973 OPEL SERVICE MANUAL1. FIywheeI and Pressure PlateExamine friction surfaces of flywheel and pressure
plate for scoring or roughness. Slight roughness may
be smoothed with fine emery cloth, but if surface is
deeply scored or grooved the part should be re-
placed.
2.
CJutch Driven Plate
Inspect driven plate for condition of facings, loose
rivets, broken or very loose torsional springs.
If facings are worn down near rivets or are oily, the
plate assembly should be replaced. A very slight
amount of oil on clutch facings will cause clutch grab
and chatter. A large amount of oil on facings will
cause slippage. Removal of oil by solvents or by buff-
ing is not practical since oil will continue to bleed
from facing material when hot.
When oil is found on driven plate facings, examine
transmission drainback hole, pilot bushing, engine
rear main bearing and other points of possible oil
leakage.
Test the fit of driven plate hub on transmission main
drive gear for an easy sliding fit.
Regardless of whether the old plate or a new one is
to be installed, the plate should be checked for run-
out. Lateral run-out measured at disc circumference
should not exceed
.016 inch.
Inspect clutch release bearing for scoring or exces-
sive wear on front contact face. Test for roughness of
balls and races by pressing and turning front race
slowly. Inspect main drive gear pilot bushing in
crankshaft. If bushing is rough or worn it should be
Figure JA-3replaced. If replacement is necessary, remove bear-
ing with Tool J-21718 and Slide Hammer J-7004-1.
Install new bearing using J-21706. See Figure 7A-3
for removal procedure and Figure 7A-4 for installa-
tion.
