Removol ond Refitting
The broke booster is held down on the pedol
brocket by nuts ond spring
woshers. The lug of
the control volve press
button connects it with
the broke pedol,
on which it is secured by o re-
toining ring. These
mounting ports
or the con-
nections of the vocuum supply
ore to be hondl-
ed only when removing
or refitting the broke
booster.
However, we odvise you
to hove this
iob done
in o speciolized
repoir shop properly
instructed
by the broke
monufocturer. All rubber ports (in
the terms of current mointenonce,
this is
procticolly the seol of the press
button control-
ling the moster cylinder)
must be protected
from the effects of the broke fluid or other
lubriconts. Use petrol
for cleoning the rubben
ports.
Adiustment 1. Adiust the cleononce
between the broke
booster press
button ond the cylinder piston
whenever the moster
cylinder or the'broke
booster ore reploced,
or whenever there is ony
doubt concerning
the correctness
of the os-
sembly of the moster cylinder
with the broke
booster. Meosure the distonce between the
cylinder bottom recess
ond the cylinder flonge
nroting surfoce os well os the length of the
press button protruding
over the moting surfoce
of the booster.
Compore the meosurings
ond
odiust the length of the press
button by rototing
its threoded
end to obtoin o cleoronce of 0.5 to
1 mm between the press
button ond the piston.
Still better, you
can use special
tools Mp6.

of the fixture spindle.
2. lf it is necessory
to level
the broke pedol
with the clutch pedol,
odiust the length
of the
contnol volve press

Remove the broke
booster from the pedol
brocket, slip off the collor (cup),
connect the
booster with the pedol,
ond refit it tempororily
to the brocket.
Now rotote the hexogon on the
threods of the lug till both the clutch ond broke
pedol ore level. Remove once more the booster
from the pedol
ond pedol

ond complete the f inol reossembly.
9.7 BRAKE FLUID TANK, PIPING AND HOSES
Tonk ond Filling Hose
The broke fluid tonk is held in position
in its
brocket by o slip-over
clomp. Speciol rubber
hoses connect it with the broke ond clutch
moster cylinders.
Hose clips ore used to secure
the hoses on the tonk outlet sockets.
Both the
side ond centre outlet of the tonk ore con-
nected to the bnoke moster cylinder, the third
outlet being connected to the clutch moster
cylinder (see Fig. 12.111).
Pressure Piping ond Hoses
The rigid port
of the hydroulic line consists
of speciol steel pipes.
Their connections with
other ports of the line ore seoled off by clomp-
ing on the conicol surfoces-
lf these conicol surfoces
become domoged,
remove them ond form new ones by floring the
pipes. To do this, use the coulking holder,
type
MP 9-151. Clomp the pipe
in the holder so thot
it is level with its upper edge ond flore the pipe
with c coulking chisel. The holder is designed
to be clomped in o vice.
The holder
hos two drilled holes of 5 ond
6 mm in diometer so thot it con be used olso for
repoirs of pipes
of the clutch line. For dio.
5 mm holes, use the MP 9-152 ond for dio. 6 mm
holes, the MP 9-153 coulking chisel.
The flexiblepqrt
of the hydroulic line consists
of speciol hoses.
When fitting them to the reor
wheel cylinders, turn them in o position
which
will prevent
their contoct with ony ports
of the
cor in both extreme positions
of the cor sus-
pension. This is why the nipples ot the reor
wheels ore inclined
downword through on
ongle of 30 degrees from
the horizontol plone.

10.4 TUBED TYRES
For mounting,
dismounting,
ond repoirs of
conventionol tyres with inner tubes (for
por-
ticulors, see the preceding
Chopters), the usuol
procedures ore opplicoble. The permissible run-
out (untrue
running)
of the rim is the some os
for tubeless tyres (Chopter
10.5).
10.5 TUBELESS TYRES
The oir-tight seoling of these tyres requires
more core ond o different hondling thon thot of
the tyres with inner
tubes.
Preporotlon of Rirrr
13elore mounting the tyre, inspect the rim for
ony technicol defects. The points
to be checked
ore the rim shoulder ond the moting foce for
the tyre beods,
in oddition to the overoll con-
dition of the rim. lf ony defects ore found, the
rim must be reconditioned.
A sotisfoctory rim
nrust comply with the following conditions:
o) The
rim shoulder ond the tyre volve hole
must not be distorted;
there must be no
shcrp edges or protrusions
likely to domoge
the tyre beod. Minor unevennesses
con be
hornmered flot ond smoothed
with o file.
The moximum eccentric running
of the rim
side must not exceed 1.5 mm.
b) The moting surfoces
must be obsolutely
cleon (free
from stuck-on rubber, rust,
etc.).
Cleon them with emery poper
or o wire brush
ond coot them with point.
lnstolling of Tyre
Volve
Cleon the rim with o dry rog. Push
the rubber
volve into
the hole in the rim
or pull
it in
by
its threod using, for exomple,
o lever

Pulling Tyre Volve
irrto Wheel Rim
Mounting the Tyre
For mounting the tyre, use speciol mochines
ond procedures,
depending on the type of the
nrochine. lf such o mochine is not ovoiloble, in-
stoll the tyre using speciol tyre levers.
Ensure
thot the boloncing dot is next to the volve.
Tyre leverrs for fitting tubeless tyres
differ in
shope from conventionol levers. They
ore thin-
ner, without edges, ond polished.
Use them core-
fully in order not to domoge the
beod seoling
rubber bose. Insert the levers
under the beod
ot
short distonces ond refroin from using force. To
focilitote sliding of the tyre cosing beods over
the rim shoulder, moisten them with woter ond
top them with o rubber
mollet when eosing
them over the rim shoulder. Inflote
the mounted
tyre immediotely. Check the tyre for propei'
bedding in the rim ond
squore seoting
on it.
Holding the wheel perpendiculorly,
strike it
severol times ogoinst the f loor ot severol points
to force the tyre beods
to bed
correctly on the
bcad seots.
lnf lotion
Remove the volve
core to increose
the diom-
eter of the hole for oir inlet (oir
should be
iniected in quick
shots to force
the beods
on
to the beod seots) ond inflote the tyre. Use
o compressor with oir receiver, the
compressed-
.oir line of the
workshop, or
compressed-oirr
cylinders. The relief volves hove to be odiusted
to o pressure
of 350 kPo (3.5
kg/cmz).
Never ollow the inflotion pressure
to rise
unnecessorily. As soon os the tyre hos snopped
into position
on the rim
ond is free from leoks,
odiust the pressure
to 250 -
350 kPo (2.5 -
3.5
kg/cmz). lf the tyre refuses to
bed properly
on
the rim,
for exomple due to distorted beods or
beods compressed due to incorrect storoge,
press the tyre circumference inword to open
wide the beods which will then bed properly
on the rim. Use either o length of
rope or
o speciol tightener. Slip the rope over the
tyre
circumference with o certoin cleoronce, insert
o stick
between the tyre ond the rope, ond
twist the rope.
Adiust the tyre pressure
to specif
icotions ond
submerge the wheel in woter to check the
tyre
for oir leoks.

Repair of Window Regulator Defects
lf the windows are difficult to wind up and
down (the
maximum torque applied on the
spindle of the window regulator with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds 2.5 Nm) (1.77
tt
lbs), it is recommended that the following steps
are taken as regards both the front
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect the regulator driving plate
from
the window glass
channel. Push the glass
upward
and try the relieved regulator by turning the
regulator crank. lf the regulator does not work
smoothly (jamming,
rattling) or if
a torque higher
than O.7 Nm/(O.495 ft lbs) in front and 1.1
Nm/(0.78 ft lbs) in the rear is required for its
operation, replace the whole regulator with a new
one working satisfactorily.
2. Adjust the centre pillar position
in the door
using the jig
as per
drawing No. A1-1 5417-S.
Loosen the top screw of the centre pillar
and
retighten it while pressing
the centre pillar
against the window glass
wound up to its upper-
most position.
Loosen the bottom screw of the
centre pillar
and retighten it while pressing
the
centre pillar
against the
window glass. 5417

3. When bolting together the regulator driving
plate with the window glass
channel make sure
that the holes in these two parts
coincide along
the whole length of the channel. lf it is not so,
move the
channel into a satisfactory position.
4. lf the regulator is
not lubricated, lubricate the
regulator cable in the
tubing with grease
and
apply oil to the regulator
crank spindle.

This type of trimming is used for
the doors -
see Chopter 14.5, Fig.14.511- ond for
the front
ond reor window posts.
Ponel-type trimming
fostened by clips (flexible
spocing pins)
covers
olso the porcel
troy below the reor window, the
outer guideroils
of the front seots, the front
wheel orches, ond the focia. On centre posts,
the trimming is fostened by screws.

results irr o too
short free trovel of the clutch pedol
ond on
olmost immediote clutch disengogement. Access
to the releose
cylinder con be goined
os de-
scribed in the previous porogroph
on clutch
lubricotion. Hold the rod protruding from
the
relose cylinder ond force
from it corefully the
releose lever, ogoinst which it is restingi
the
lever con be relieved by disengoging the ten-
sion (pull-off
) springs.
ln service, the forcing-off
must be ot leost
2 mm. Adiust it to 4
to 5 mm by odiusting the
length of the rod. After hoving
loosened the nut
on the rod
of the releose cylinder, rotote
the
releose finger to obtoin the correct rod
length.
Then retighten the nut, thus locking the releose
f inger in its position
on the rod.
lf the ploy
is correctly od justed,
the f ree
trovel of the
clutch pedol
pod should ronge
from 40 to 50 mm. lt should not be ollowed to
drop below '!0
to 15 mm. lf the described od-
justing procedure foils to bring the required
result, it is necessory to odjust the clutch
mech-
onism in occordonce with
informotion con
toined in Chopter 3.2.
Bleeding the Glutch Hydroulic System
The movement of the clutch pedol
is trons-
mitted hydroulicolly to the clutch releose cylin-
der. The couses ond symptoms of penetrotion
of oir into the hydroulic
system (similor
to the
broke hydroulic system) ore described in detoil
in the section deoling with brokes. The pro-
cedure of bleeding the clutch is the some os
wherr bleeding the brokes -
see Chopter 15.8.

Checking Oil
Level ond Topping'up
Oil
Renrove the centre cover ol the
f loor boord in
the luggoge comportment behind the
reor seots.
Pull off the filler neck cop ond use
the dipstick
to check the oil level. With the diPstick inserted
into the neck up to its seoling ring, the oil level
should be obout 8 mm obove the upper line'
For this check, the cor
should be ploced
on
level ground.
After hoving topped up the oil,
woit obout 2 minutes (while
oil flows from the
georbox proper
into the finol drive ond its level
is stobilized), ond then recheck
its level-

3.-Uncouple the
hoses from
the engine line
in the engine boy -
See Fi1.15.131A. Proceeding
from und6r the vehicle, pull
the hoses
behind
the cross beorer of
the georbox,
ond let the
liquid flow
from the hoses.
4. Remove the
droin plug of
the cylinder
block ond, if necessory, free

o length of wire,
etc.
N ot e : In oll, obout 85 0/0

ond the difference should
be reckoned with when

As clreody mentioned, the cooling system is
f illed with this liquid,
or with o solution
of its

foctory.
For the preporotion of this solution
olw.oys
use soft ond cleon woter. In the following
toble,
its concentrotion in
dependence on
its freezing
resistonce is indicoted. Alternotively, the
con-
centrotion con be determined from
the density.
