1 Technical data

1.1 Engine number


The engine identification character and the engine number can
be found on the sticker -arrow- at the control box.
In addition, the engine identification characters are indicated on
the vehicle data sticker and also at the front on the cylinder block
on the connecting flange for gearbox.
The engine number consists of 9 characters. The first part (a
maximum of 3 letters) represents the “engine identification char‐
acters”, the second (the six part section) the “serial number”. If
more than 999.999 engines with the same engine identification
character were produced, then the first of the 6 digits will be re‐
placed by a letter.

01 – Self-diagnosis
1 Self diagnosis, safety measures,
cleanliness regulations, directions

1.1 Self-diagnosis
This repair group is no longer applicable.
Instead use the “Vehicle self-diagnosis”, “Measuring method” and
the “Targeted fault finding” ⇒ Vehicle diagnosis, testing and in‐
formation system VAS 5051.

1.2 Safety precautions when working on the


fuel supply system

WARNING

The fuel feed line is pressurized! Place a clean cleaning cloth


around the connection point before detaching wiring. Reduce
pressure by carefully removing the wiring.

WARNING

When undertaking all installation work, particularly in the en‐


gine compartment due to its cramped construction, please
observe the following:
♦ Lay lines of all kinds (e.g. fuel, hydraulic fluid, the activated
charcoal container system, cooling fluid and refrigerant,
brake fluid, vacuum) and electrical lines in such a way that
the original line guide is re-established.
♦ Ensure that there is adequate distance to all moving or hot
parts.

♦ The fuel pump is activated when the ignition is switched on


and by the door contact switch of the driver door. Before open‐
ing the fuel system and for reasons of safety, if the battery is
not disconnected, the connector must be disconnected from
the fuel delivery unit.
When removing and installing the fuel gauge sender or the fuel
delivery unit from a full or partly filled fuel tank, pay attention to
the following points:
♦ The extraction hose of an exhaust extraction system which is
switched on, must be positioned close to the assembly open‐
ing of the fuel tank in order to extract the released fuel vapours,
even before the work is commenced. If no exhaust extraction
system is available, a radial fan (motor not in air flow of fan)
with a delivery volume of more than 15 m3/h must be used.
♦ Avoid skin contact with fuel! Wear fuel-resistant gloves!

1.3 Rules of cleanliness to observe when


working on the fuel supply system
Pay careful attention to the following rules of cleanliness when
working on the fuel supply or fuel injection systems:

2 Rep. Gr.01 - Self-diagnosis


Fabia II 2007 ➤
1.4/63 kW MPI engine - Edition 02.07

♦ Thoroughly clean the connection points and their surroundings


before releasing.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover. Do not use
fuzzy cloths!
♦ Carefully cover or seal removed or opened components if the
repair is not carried out immediately.
♦ Only install clean parts: Remove spare parts from their wrap‐
ping immediately before installing. Do not use any parts which
have been stored unwrapped (e.g. in tool boxes).
♦ When the system is opened: do no use compressed air. Do
not use the vehicle.

1.4 Safety measures to apply when working


on the fuel injection and ignition system

WARNING

The fuel system is under pressure! Before opening the system


lay cleaning cloths around the connection point. Reduce pres‐
sure by carefully releasing the connection point.

Observe the following points to prevent injury to persons and/or


damage to the injection and ignition system:
♦ Do not touch or remove ignition cables with the engine running
or when starting the engine.
♦ Do not disconnect or connect cables of the fuel injection and
ignition system, also not cables of test equipment, unless the
ignition is switched off.
♦ If the engine must be operated at start speed without the en‐
gine starting, as for example, when checking the compression
pressure: open lid of fuse carrier below the dash panel and
unplug fuse for injection valves -N30, N31, N32, N33- ⇒ Cur‐
rent flow diagrams and Fitting locations.
If test and measuring devices are required during test drives ob‐
serve the following:
♦ Always secure the test and measuring devices on the rear seat
and have a second person operate them there.
♦ If the test and measuring devices are operated from the pas‐
senger seat, the passenger can be injured by the release of
the passenger airbag in the event of an accident.

1.5 General notes on the injection system


♦ The engine control unit is equipped with a self-diagnosis sys‐
tem. Before repairs as well as for fault finding first interrogate
the fault memory ⇒ Vehicle diagnosis, testing and information
system VAS 5051.
♦ Fuel hoses in the engine compartment must be secured with
spring band clamps. The use of clamp-type or screw-type clips
is not allowed.
♦ A minimum voltage of 11.5 V is required for perfect functioning
of the electrical components.
♦ Do not use sealants containing silicone. Traces of silicone el‐
ements drawn in by the engine are not burnt in the engine and
damage the lambda probes.
♦ Certain inspections may cause the control unit to detect and
store a fault. It is therefore necessary to interrogate the fault
memory after having completed all inspections and repairs,

Reworking lower cylinder head sealing surface


Permissible reworking dimension of cylinder head: a = at least
108.25 mm.

2.1 Reworking valve seats


Special tools and workshop equipment required
♦ Depth gauge
♦ NAC milling cutter for reworking valve seats

Note

♦ When carrying out repairs on engines with leaking valves, it is


not sufficient to machine or replace the valve seats and valves.
It is also necessary to inspect the valve guides for wear, par‐
ticularly on engines with a high mileage ⇒ page 51 .
♦ Rework valve seats only sufficiently in order to obtain a proper
contact pattern. Calculate the maximum permissible rework‐
ing dimension before commencing. If the reworking dimension
is exceeded, the proper operation of the hydraulic valve clear‐
ance compensation is no longer ensured. If this is the case
replace the cylinder head.

Calculating maximum permissible reworking dimension


– Insert valve into the guide and press firmly against the valve
seat.

Note

If the valve is replaced when carrying out repair work, use a new
valve for the measurement.

– Measure distance between the valve stem end and the upper
face of the cylinder head.
– Calculate max. permissible reworking dimension from the dis‐
tance measured and the minimum dimension.
Minimum dimension: inlet valve 7.6 mm
Minimum dimension: outlet 7.6 mm
valve
“Measured distance” - “minimum dimension” = “max. permissible
reworking dimension”.
Example:
Measured distance 8.0 mm
- Minimum dimension 7.6 mm
= max. permissible reworking dimension 2) 0.4 mm
2) The max. permissible reworking dimension is shown in the figure for reworking
the valve seats as dimension “b”.

Reworking inlet valve seat


a = ∅ 28.7 mm
b = max. permissible reworking dimension
c = 1.5…1.8 mm
Z = Bottom edge of cylinder head
α = 45° valve seat angle
β = 30° top correction angle
γ = 60° bottom correction angle

γ = 60° bottom correction angle
Work procedure
Reworking can be carried out by hand while complying with the
following conditions:
• Wear limit of valve guides must not exceed the permissible
dimension ⇒ page 51 .
• Use NAC milling cutter with carbide metal tips (min. 90 HRC).
• Mill with the milling cutter using slight pressure in such a way
that an even removal of swarfs is ensured over the whole
working surface.

mm mm mm
Inlet valve 32 32 21/34
Exhaust valve 30 30 21/34

Milling sequence
1 - Mill valve seat with 90° milling cutter until a perfect contact
pattern is achieved. (Do not exceed maximum permissible re‐
working dimension!)
2 - Mill top correction angle with 120° milling cutter until valve seat
diameter -a- ( ⇒ page 48 ) is achieved.
3 - Rework bottom correction angle with 60° milling cutter until
valve seat width -c- ( ⇒ page 48 ) is achieved.

– Grind in valve/valve seat -arrows- with fine grinding paste so


as to achieve a perfect contact pattern.
– Check contact pattern e.g. with water colour (perfect contact
pattern over entire circumference).
– Install valve springs.
– Inspect the valves for tightness.
The tightness of the valves can be checked by filling petrol into
the inlet and outlet canal (no petrol must flow out at the valve
seat).
After completing the repair measure once again the distances
between the valve stem ends and the upper face of the cylinder
head and calculate the maximum permissible reworking dimen‐
sion ⇒ page 47 .

Note

If the maximum permissible reworking dimension is exceeded,


proper operation of the valve gear is no longer assured and the
cylinder head must be replaced.

2.3 Switching off the fuel delivery unit using


the crash signal
Operation
The vehicles with airbag are equipped with a crash signal fuel
shut-off system. If while driving the airbag units are triggered, the
fuel pump relay -J17- opens and deactivates the fuel delivery unit.
This also enhances the starting behaviour of the engine. When
the door is opened, the fuel pump is operated for about 2 seconds
so that pressure is built up in the fuel system.
– Testing fuel pump relay ⇒ Current flow diagrams and Fitting
locations.
