Ok... I'll do my best. In all
honesty, I've never taken a pump apart in this detail ,
so it might take me a bit to get some of the tech terms
for the parts right, but I can always go back and edit
those as you guys point them out to me. Just let me know
so this thread doesn't get 10 miles long. I've taken a
little bit of liberty and tried to clarify some points
so the translation is not 100% accurate word by word.
Here goes:
****************** Alright,
Folks.... Here’s my Friday night project : prepare a
nice working Bosch pump to install on a 205 (Peugeot?).
Since the pump was in unknown condition, it was
to be completely taken apart and rebuilt with new
gaskets / seals and everything. As it turns out, this
was a good move because the inside of it was full of
crap..
So…Here’s the starting point, the pump
and a packet of seals containing the throttle lever
sleeve and the mainshaft seal :
And here's the same thing an hour
later..
The Bosch pump looks "crowded" doesn't
it? and yet, can't complain, a rotary pump is
worse
I didn't take any photos during
disassembly, so we'll start from here. If you have any
questions about the disassembly, just follow this thread
from the bottom up
It goes without saying that once the
pump is apart, all the pieces must be rigourously
cleaned. In addition, it also greatly helps reassembly
to lubricate all parts that adjust, rub or slide
together with penetrating oil.
We'll start by
reassembling the outlet ports (pressure valves) on the
hydraulic head. Here are the different components of the
outlet ports: valve, valve spring, adjustment shim, nice
new sealing washer and plunger.
The parts reassembled :
and the whole thing :
With that done, let's get on with the
"serious" stuff
hoooo, it's completely empty !
You can even see my jeans at the bottom of the hole...
We'll start by reassembling the stator
on the transfer pump: (pay close attention to
correctly align the threaded holes with the holes at the
bottom of the pump body marked in green)
Next, the rotor and its vanes :
First the rotor :
Next the vanes go in with the help of
a long needle nose pliers:
then the rotor cover :
Here it is in place with its screws :
We'll now put the main shaft in place
as shown below:
Before putting it back in its place,
you have to first put in the governor drive gear along
with two new elastic shims/couplers:
Next, add the washer that goes behind
it:
and finally the transfer pump drive
key in the shaft:
Then you put the whole thing in the
body of the pump:
And...here it is in its place :
We'll now put the put the following
pieces together: the roller carrier with its actuator
pin for timing advance:
Put the actuator pin into the carrier
(be sure to put the hole in the pin on the correct
side!)
Next, put the assembly in the pump :
...and here's the actuator pin when
it's in its appropriate place. It sticks out into the advance mechanism's
bore:
Ok, now all we have to do is assemble
the roller carrier so we can put the advance piston in
place like so:
Put the assembly back together :
The piston in place :
Pay close attention to the piston's
orientation. The machined part of the piston that
accepts the spring is installed on the side of the
evacuation hole that goes to the transfer pump:
All that's left is to drop the
acutator pin in place
and secure it with its pin.
Install the clip on the end of the
pin:
Next, we'll put on the transfer
assembly cover with a new seal:
Then, on the other side, the spring
and the automatic advance mechanism (cold start advance
lever / cover for us VW guys?):
Eventually, I removed the electric
adavance mechanism since the 205 doesn't have this
feature. I put a normal cover in its place.
Next, you install the cross-shaped
piece that drives the rest of the pump:
Then install the rollers... They are
shown here on their support outside of the pump. Pay
close attention to the orientation of the washer which
is curved to adapt to the outside shape of the support:
Install the spring that goes in the
center :
Next add the camplate which goes on
top:
To align this part, the drive pin for
the piston (marked in green) must be aligned with the
key in the pump's shaft.
It's the cams (humps)
of this plate that cause the piston's movement when the
rollers pass over them. The piston moves, compresses the
fuel and injection occurs. You can modify the advance by
turning the roller carrier in relation to the timing
advance piston's position underneath.
With this
pump, I changed the camplate because this pump's
original camplate didn't have the same profile. The one
that's in there now comes from a 205 pump.
Now
let's go on to the distributor piston:
Next we add the governor assembly:
This piece, directly actuated by the
governor, is going to more or less cover the piston's
outlet hole (marked in green on the preceeding photo).
During injection, the piston is pushed in, pushed by
the camplate. Depending on the position of the governor
assembly, the hole becomes more or less blocked by the
piston's movement after its stroke. This is how the
amount of fuel to be injected is regulated. (when the
hole is "free" the pressure is relieved through there
and injection stops).
The piston is called the
"distributor" because it is driven in rotation and
directs the fuel towards each outlet port (pressure
valve toward the injector) through each of the different
holes on it.
Next, we put the distributor piston
back into the hydraulic head:
..and the return springs:
The spacer shim at the end of the
piston:
..and it all goes into place in the
pump :
We'll now reattach the governor levers
and the return springs on them:
The most complicated part of this
operation is the correct positioning of the springs:
l
Detail of the how the special
triangular head bolts (for which I made a special socket
by grinding an old 13mm socket) will fit into the lever
assembly:
Installation of the bolts with new
aluminum gasket:
The only thing remaining on this step
is to put the lever assembly in from the top:
...And no...that doesn't work. We're
screwed. Impossible to do it this way. We'll have to
disassemble the head and then put the levers in place
before all of the rest.
By the way, on the distributor piston,
you'll see the outlet orifice (marked in green), the
orifice leading to the injectors (red) and the 4 grooves
that fill the chamber at the end (green). The piston is
hollow to allow flow through to all of that.
The head assembled with all its return
springs:
The only thing left here is to put
everything back into place then disassemble it one or
two more times after the springs fall out in the
process...and here you go:
Let's go on now to the reassembly of
the centrifugal governor. Here are all the pieces:
First you put together the
counterweights:
Then you put them back into the body
of the governor:
Next, you replace the governor lever
seen below. (notice the calibrated hole that's part of
the system that alters the initial fuel injection in
function of the load):
After this, you put in the governor
shaft in the body of the pump:
These are the washers that go behind
the governor's rotor:
the governor itself :
Then install the shaft and tighten it
with the help of a hex key and a normal box wrench to
hold the shaft in position so it doesn't move while the
lock nut is tightened.
The position of this
shaft is important because it regulates the system of
initial injection by vacuum (?). It's wise therefore, to
mark the position of this shaft during pump disassembly.
There you go... Now the pump body is
complete. The only things missing are the pump cover and
the transfer pressure regulation valve that I could have
put on right after this, but didn't...
We'll
start by removing the old lever guide sleeve:
Then we put the new sleeve in its
place:
Gently push the sleeve home by using a
bolt and some large washers:
Next, put in the governor shaft and
return spring "capsule":
Detail shot of the attachment of the
governor spring assembly on the governor lever: the flat
(green) fits into the slot/grove in the lever (red) then
gets pulled into place from behind:
And there you go... just have to
replace the cover (with a new seal) and screw it into
place.
Next, you put the throttle lever back in
its place thanks to the markings on the shaft and on the
lever (we would have obviously have taken care to mark
it's exact position during disassembly):
Now, put the transfer pressure
regulation valve back on (with new o-ring seals, of
course):
Next, add the electric fuel cutoff
solenoid :
And finally, install the seal on the
mainshaft (you can do this by using a large socket and
the pump's shaft pulley nut to press it into place on
the shaft...sorry, no photo,).
And there you go, all done. Nothing
left to do but to install it onto the 205!
