ENGINE MOUNTINGS The rubber engine mountings, which are attached to the frame side rail brackets and to the support plate, prevent fore-and-aft motion of the engine, yet allow free sidewise and vertical oscillation which neutralizes vibration at the source. Keep the mountings tight. A loose engine may cause vibration, clutch chatter or high fuel level in the carburetor. The rubber surface of the mountings partially insulates the engine from the frame. To assure a positive electrical conne

FLOATING OIL INTAKE The floating oil intake (No. 28, Fig. 2) is attached to the crankcase with two screws. The construction of the float and screen cause it to remain on top of the oil, preventing the circulation of water and dirt. Once each year remove the float, screen and tube and clean thoroughly with a suitable cleaning fluid. When replacing, place some sealer on the gasket where the tube bears against the engine crankcase. A leak at this point will allow air to enter the oil sucti

CJ2A Operation and Care Manual -- Proper Maintenance (part 3 -- Engine Electricals, Fuel and Cooling Systems.) GENERATOR The generator is a 35-ampere, two-brush unit which does not require adjustment to increase or decrease output. This is accomplished by the regulator which limits the current generated to that which is required by the battery. The generator charging rate, as shown by the ammeter, will be low when the battery is well charged and correspondingly higher as charging is requir

FUEL SYSTEM The fuel system consists of the fuel tank lines, fuel pump, carburetor and air cleaner. The most important maintenance attention is to keep the system clean and free of water, also periodically inspect for leaks. Should the vehicle be stored for an extended period, the fuel system should be completely drained and the engine started and allowed to run until the carburetor is emptied. This will avoid oxidation of the fuel, resulting in the formation of gum in the units of the sy

WATER PUMP The water pump assembly Fig. 15 is a centrifugal impeller type, of large capacity to circulate the water in the entire cooling system. The sealed type double-row ball bearing is integral with the shaft and is packed at the time of assembly with a special high melting point grease, so requires no lubrication. FAN BELT The fan and generator are driven by a “V”-type belt. The drive is on the sides of the belt, therefore it is not necessary to adjust it tight, which might cause exc
