Repair and operation of the car

Check of levels of liquids (each one 400 km of a race or weekly)

Reason oil

ORDER OF REALIZATION

1. The control of the level of oil of reason happens through the probe of measuring inserted in the tube of direction and the trundle bed of his case lowered in the motor to the bottom. In all the models the probe of measuring is located in an advanced part of the motor (companions see illustrations). 2. The control of the level of oil of reason has to happen before the first one in the travel of day of today, or not less than 15 minutes then after a motor stop. If it carries out the check immediately after putting out of the motor, his results will not reflect appropriately a situation as one it leaves from oil if it will distribute in internal and component galleries of the motor. 3. Take the probe of measuring of the direction tube and dry they rub it with pure rags or a towel of paper. Insert the probe behind in a tube against the stop, then again take. Examine an edge of probe, checking the size of the siege moistened with the oil. The oil level will be between the top and to lower marks in an edge of probe (companion to see an illustration). In case of the necessity they add the necessary amount of oil of the corresponding degree in the motor. 4. The rise at the level of the lowest mark in the probe to the top needs approximately a liter of oil. Falling the level below of the lowest mark leads to the development of the starvation of oil of the loaded motor of serious mechanical damages of a last one. Try not to pour out the oil above the superior mark as it can lead to a launch of captures of spark or failure of oil of epiploons of the unity of power as a consequence of the excessive increase in the pressure. 5. To fill out the oil in the motor it is necessary to discover equipped of a woodcarving of a gooey mouth (companion seen an illustration). For aims of the reduction to the minimum of sprinkling of oil during his petrol station in the motor they use a funnel or butter dish with a long nose. Having filled out the oil, ponder and strongly hold tight a covering of a gooey mouth, soon motor begins attentively they examine a cork of drain and the surface of the interface of a filter of oil in the existence of signs of the hole of oil. Kill the motor, wait approximately for 15 minutes during which the oil will fuse in the trundle bed, and to re-examine the level. 6. The check of the level of oil of reason is the important preventive proceeding of the service of the motor. The continuous reduction in the level demonstrates the existence of the hole of oil as a consequence of failure of epiploons, I harm of sealing placing, use rings of piston or the captures of direction of valves. If the oil in the color or a coherence remembers the milk, or in him be water decreases, he speaks the possible damage of the placing of a head of cylinders or formation of slits to a body of a head (heads) or the block. The control has to happen immediately. During the measurement of the level of oil also they always check his state. Big and rate fingers withdraw aspects of oil of an edge of probe, – in case of the presence in him of the small metal particles oil it is subject to the substitution (to see the Substitution of oil of reason and a filter of oil (each one 4.800 km of a race or times during three months)).

To cool liquid of the motor

Do not allow the blow of the antifreeze in open parts of the body and the painted surfaces of the car. Immediately take away while washing incidentemente vein it spurts an abundant amount of water. Remember that the antifreeze is the extremely toxic liquid and his blow in an organism in few quantities is even loaded of the most serious consequences, up to a lethal result. Never leave the antifreeze guarded in the container closed forbidden evil, immediately join the liquid that cools spilled in a floor. Remember that the slightly sweet smell of antifreeze can attract attention of children and animal. On ways use of the liquid of carried out cooling is consulted with local authorities. In many regions of the world-wide special points in the reception different from the work of they are equipped. Do not establish the old liquid of cooling in the piping and in the land in absolute!

Recently the degrees of nontoxical of the antifreeze were developed, nevertheless also they have to be used in an organized order.

All the models of cars described in the present manual are equipped of the system of cooling of the type of compensation that works with an excessive pressure with the pressure. The wide tank of the system of cooling done from the white plastic is located in a reason compartment and one adheres for an excess hose to a gooey mouth of an electric heater. In a motor they overheat the liquid that cools it stretches out, and his excess flows he was seeing the valve that is built in in a covering of a gooey mouth of an electric heater, in a wide tank. In the process of the cooling, the liquid returns in a hose in an electric heater that there allows to support constantly normally his level in the system.

ORDER OF REALIZATION

1. The level of cooling the liquid in a wide tank happens in a regular base and be between the MINUTE of marks and TO MOVE for translucent walls of a tank (companion to see an illustration). It is necessary to be remembered that the liquid level depends on his temperature, therefore, it will be in a cold state only lightly above the lowest mark, and after being heated of the motor – to increase to mark the MOVEMENT. In case of the necessity they do the corresponding agreement, having added in a tank for a mouth the necessary quantity it is more a cool breeze than the mixture. Do not discover an electric heater of the check of the level of liquid in him in the heated motor! For agreement of level of liquid use only the mixture of necessary structure of glicol of ethylene and the distilled water (on 50/50). Remember that the idle water time drives the frequent application for the agreement of the level of cooling the liquid to gradual fluidifying of the antifreeze and losing for the mixture of that of resistance of frost and anticorrosive properties. 2. Of cooling liquid normally the continuous fall of the level demonstrates the development of holes in the system. Check an electric heater, hoses, gooey covering, drain traffic jams of traffic and the case of the water bomb of the existence of aspects of holes. If it is not possible to reveal any sign of holes, it is necessary to carry out the control of a covering of a pressure of electric heater in the conditions of a workshop of the service of the car. Do not discover an electric heater / a wide tank in the motor heated in absolute! 3. In the necessity of the removal of a covering of an electric heater they hope for the cooling full of the motor, soon they roll a mouth up with a thick rags layer and slowly they put a covering out to the first emphasis. If at the same time there is emission to steam, leave the motor to us one abates a little more, only after him finally they discover. 4. Besides the level check also of cooling the liquid – a condition will be quite transparent. If it cools liquid one will paint in the color it reddens like the henna of a rust, the cooling system has to be emptied, to wash itself out and to be filled of the fresh mixture of the antifreeze with the water. Even if liquid exgently is not exposed to any modification, the inhibiting nerves of corrosion that are his part are subject consequently to the development, what therefore, liquid cools has to be substituted regularly according to the time-table of the regular maintenance of the car (to see the Time-table of the regular maintenance). 5. Try not to allow blows of the antifreeze in open sieges from the skin or the painted surfaces of component ones of body. Immediately take away while washing incidentemente vein it spurts an abundant amount of water.

Liquid of washing of wind and rear metal adornments of the car

ORDER OF REALIZATION

1. The liquid of the washing of a windshield is filled out in the special tank located in the left advanced corner of a compartment of reason of the car (companion sees an illustration). In regions with a climate seasoned like the liquid to wash itself of the clean glass water it can be in use, nevertheless it is not necessary to fill the tank more than in 2/3 for aims of the compensation of the water expansion in the moment of his congelation during the frosts. In the moment of the operation of the car in severe climatic conditions it is necessary to fill out only clothes to rub of fabric of patent that they supply the corresponding reduction in a point that is frozen of liquid in the tank. To avoid to be frozen of the glass when he washes himself in the cold time previously it heats it for an obduv that the air passed he was seeing the conductor of heat of heater. Do not use for the addition in the liquid to wash of metal adornments the antifreeze used in the system of cooling in absolute – the last thing is aggressive regarding a painting and the covering of varnish of lists of body!

Hydraulic liquid of the system of brakes and walk of union

Main Brake Cylinder (MBC) concentrates on the block of the driver of the servomecanismo of the amplifier of vacuum of brakes. The hydraulic cylinder of the union is in use in models with RKPP and concentrates on the neighborhood with GTTs straightly in a rear splitting of a compartment. In models equipped of ABS in the right part of a compartment of reason the tank of the hydraulic modulador of antiblockading the system is installed.

Before the check of the level of liquid of the modulador ABS in the car it is necessary to do I tan (several minutes) a travel for aims of the alignment of the pressure. If the level of liquid rises very much above the MOVEMENT of mark, it is necessary to expel the car in the workshop of repairs of the car to carry out more detailed controls and realization of the necessary repair.

ORDER OF REALIZATION

1. The liquid level in tanks is examined well by translucent walls of the last one and has to be supported between MINUTE of two marks and MOVEMENT in walls (companions see illustrations). 2. In case of agreements of necessity of the level of liquid carefully they rub a covering of the corresponding tank and a surface around him with pure rags to avoid the blow in the system of the pollution. 3. In a liquid flood in the tank it looks sprinkling it in the detour painted surfaces of elements of body. Add to each one of systems only the liquid degree stipulated by demands standard (to see Specifications in the beginning of this Chapter). The mixture of two liquids of several degree is not inadmissible anyway. In the agreement of the level of liquid in the tank GTTs it does not bring it to the superior mark approximately in 20 mm, – after the installation of a level of covering will return automatically to a normal one. The brake fluid is extremely chemically aggressive – they do not allow that they hit him in eyes and in the painted surfaces of lists of body! Do not use for the addition in the system the hydraulic liquid that I calm more than a year, or guarded in the container closed forbidden evil. Remember that the brake fluid is very hygroscopic and have the capacity of his efficiency absorb the moisture of the air then considerably lessen! 4. In a stage of the agreement of the level it is necessary to check attentively a condition of liquid and internal walls of the tank. In case of the identification of deposits of mud, firm or low foreign water particles the system has to be emptied and to be filled of the fresh hydraulic liquid (to see the Chief Stsepleniye and ends of power or the System of brakes). 5. After the tank is filled at the necessary level, densely he puts himself a covering. 6. Remember that the level of hydraulic liquid in the tank GTTs in the process of the operation of bedcovers of friction of shoes of brake slowly falls, nevertheless this reduction is always very insignificant. If the liquid has to be added exaggerated very often, the way in the system hole which fountain has of be revealing immediately happens, and the cause is withdrawn. Attentively examine all the lines of brake and his connections of nipple, including supports, cylinders of wheel and the driver of the servomecanismo of the amplifier of vacuum (because of seeing more details in the check of the system of brakes (each one 12.000 km of a race or times during 6 months)). The fall of the level of liquid in the tank of the main cylinder of the union indicates the existence of holes in the system of a hydraulic acionador of the last one (to see the Chief Stsepleniye and ends of power). 7. If during the check of the level of liquid in GTTs the fact that his tank devastates almost if eliciar, the brakes system has to be pumped completely on (the Head sees the System of brakes).
