this manual
[ts aims The aim of this manual is to help you get the best value from your vehicle. It can do so in several ways. It can help you decide what work must be done (even should you choose to get it done by a garage), provide information on routine maintenance and servicing, and give a logical course of action and diagnosis when random faults occur. However, it is hoped that you will use the manual to its full purpose by tackling the work yourself. On simpler jobs it may even be quicker than booking the vehicle into a garage, and going there twice, to leave and collect it. Perhaps most important, a lot of money can be saved by avoiding the costs a garage must charge to cover its labour and overheads. The manual has drawings and descriptions to show the function of the various components so that their layout can be understood. Then the tasks are described and photographed in a step-by-step sequence so that even a novice can do the work.
[ts arrangement The manual is divided into thirteen Chapters. The Chapters are each divided into Sections, numbered with single figures, eg 5; and the Sections into paragraphs (or sub-sections), with decimal numbers following on from the Section they are in, eg 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 etc.
Introduction
it is freely illustrated, especially in those parts where there is a detailed sequence of operations to be carried out. There are two forms of illustrations: figures and photographs. The figures are numbered in sequence with decimal. numbers, according to their position in the Chapter: eg Fig 6.4 is the 4th drawing/illustration in Chapter 6. Photographs are numbered (either individually or in
related
groups)
the
same
as the Section
or sub-section
of the
text where the operation they show is described. There is an alphabetical index at the back of the manual as well as a contents list at the front. References to the ‘left’ or ‘right’ of the vehicle are in the sense of a person in the driver's seat facing forwards. Unless otherwise stated, nuts and bolts are removed by turning anti-clockwise, and tightened by turning clockwise. Vehicle manufacturers continually make changes to specifications and recommendations, and these when notified are incorporated into our manuals at the earliest opportunity. Whilst every care is taken to ensure that the information in this manual is correct no liability can be accepted by the authors or publishers for loss, damage or injury caused by any errors in, or omissions from, the information given.
to the Marina
There are two approaches to building a car. A conventional design can be used, and from it can be expected the reliability and dependability that must come from thé thorough development of a well proven layout. The unconventional car should give some startling advantages, but in return some penalties must be accepted. In the British Leyland Motor Corporation the Ordinary mass produced cars are made by the Austin-Morris Group. Their unconventional cars such as the Mini, the Maxi, and more recently the Allegro, have transverse engines driving the front wheels, and unusual suspension, such as hydrolastic and hydragas. These cars are renowned for their road holding and the large space inside with small overall dimensions. The conventional car is usually cheaper to build and to repair. Its different layout suits some owners who do not take to the transverse engined ones. The Marina is aimed at this large market. The dealer and agency loyalty in the United Kingdom was built originally when Austin and Morris were separate, and rivals. Whilst the Maxi and Allegro use the Austin agency, on the home market the Marina was launched as a Morris. In the USA local British Leyland arrangements call for the Marina to be an Austin. So the Morris Mari, 1 is the home version, and the Austin the North American one. The Morris Marina is available with three body styles and two
engines, only the larger of which is dealt with in this manual. There is the four door Saloon, the two door Coupe, and the five door Estate. There is the ordinary 1.8 engine with one carburettor, and the 1.8 TC with twin carburettors. The TC and the Estate have a brake servo, and the super de luxe trim. The Ordinary Coupe and Saloon may be kad in a de luxe trim. In late 1975 the Mk 2 version became available in the same body styles as the Mk 1 but with various cosmetic changes. The Austin Marina is available in the four door and two door bodies. The two door is the Coupe GT. Only one engine is fitted, and this is a version of the 1.8 engine with single carburettor, and all the necessary equipment to meet the emissions regulations of the USA. It has the brake servo. Either a manual four-speed gearbox, or Borg Warner 35 automatic transmission can be fitted. The engine at the front drives a live rear axle mounted on semic-elliptic leaf springs. At the front the suspension is by longitudinal torsion bars.
The Marina 1.8 engine is basically the same as that which ts used in the MGB. The Marina is simple and straightforward to work on. All the major components have been in use in earlier models so have long development behind them to give reliability.

Buying spare and vehicle
parts identification
numbers
Buying spare parts Spare parts are available from many sources, for example: Leyland garages, other garages and accessory shops, and motor factors. Our advice regarding spare parts is as follows: Officially appointed Leyland garages - This is the best source of parts which are peculiar to your car and are otherwise not generally available (eg complete cylinder heads, internal gearbox components, badges, interior trim etc). It is also the only place at which you should buy parts if your car is still under warranty; non-Leyland components may invalidate the warranty. To be sure of obtaining the correct parts it will always be necessary to give the storeman your car’s engine and chassis number, and if possible to take the old part along for positive identification. Remember that many parts are available on a factory exchange scheme - any parts returned should always be clean! It obviously makes good sense to go to the specialists on your car for this type of part for they are best equipped to supply you. Other garages and accessory shops - These are often very good places to buy material and components needed for the maintenance of your car (eg oil filters, spark plugs, bulbs, fan belts, oils
WHEN
and greases, touch-up paint, filler paste etc). They also sell general accessories, usually have convenient opening hours, charge lower prices and can often be found not far from home.
Motor factors - Good factors will stock all of the more important components which wear out relatively quickly (eg clutch components, pistons, valves, exhaust systems, brake cylinders/
pipes/hoses/seals/shoes and pads etc). Motor factors will often provide new or reconditioned components on a part exchange basis - this can save a considerable amount of money.
Vehicle identification numbers The car and body numbers are located on two plates fixed to the left-hand bonnet lock platform. The engine number is affixed to the cylinder block on its right-hand side. The gearbox number is stamped on the right-hand side. The rear axle number is stamped on the outside face of the differential casing joint flange.

Safety first! Professional motor mechanics are trained in safe working procedures. However enthusiastic you may be about getting on with the job in hand, do take the time to ensure that your safety is not put at risk. A moment's lack of attention can result in an accident, as can failure to observe certain elementary precautions. There will always be new ways of having accidents, and the following points do not pretend to be a comprehensive list of all dangers; they are intended rather to make you aware of the risks and to encourage a safety-conscious approach to all work you carry out on your vehicle.
Essential DOs and DON'Ts DON'T rely on a single jack when working underneath the vehicle. Always use reliable additional means of support, such as axle stands, securely placed under a part of the vehicle that you know will not give way.
DON'T attempt to loosen or tighten high-torque nuts (e.g. wheel hub nuts) while the vehicle is on a jack; it may be pulled off. DON'T start the engine without first ascertaining that the transmission is in neutral (or ‘Park’ where applicable) and the parking brake applied. DON'T suddenly remove the filler cap from a hot cooling system — cover it with a cloth and release the pressure gradually first, or you may get scalded by escaping coolant. DON'T attempt to drain oil until you are sure it has cooled sufficiently to avoid scalding you. DON'T grasp any part of the engine, exhaust or catalytic converter without first ascertaining that it is sufficiently cool to avoid burning you. DON’T allow brake fluid or antifreeze to contact vehicle paintwork. DON'T syphon toxic liquids such as fuel, brake fluid or antifreeze by mouth, or allow them to remain on your skin. DON'T inhale dust — it may be injurious to health (see Asbestos below). DON'T allow any spilt oil or grease to remain on the floor — wipe it up straight away, before someone slips on it. DON'T use ill-fitting spanners or other tools which may slip and cause injury. DON'T attempt to lift a heavy component which may be beyond your capability — get assistance.
DON'T rush to finish a job, or take unverified short cuts. DON'T allow children or animals in or around an unattended vehicle. DO wear eye protection when using power tools such as drill, sander, bench grinder etc, and when working under the vehicle. DO use a barrier cream on your hands prior to undertaking dirty jobs — it will protect your skin from infection as well as making the dirt easier to remove afterwards; but make sure your hands aren't left slippery. DO keep loose clothing (cuffs, tie etc) and long hair well out of the way of moving mechanical parts. DO remove rings, wristwatch etc, before working on the vehicle — especially the electrical system. DO ensure that any lifting tackle used has a safe working load rating adequate for the job. DO keep your work area tidy — it is only too easy to fall over articles left lying around. DO get someone to check periodically that all is well, when working alone on the vehicle. DO carry out work in a logical sequence and check that everything is correctly assembled
and tightened afterwards.
Fire Remember at all times that petrol (gasoline) is highly flammable. Never smoke, or have any kind of naked flame around, when working on the vehicle. But the risk does not end there — a spark caused by an electrical short-circuit, by two metal surfaces contacting each other, by careless use of tools, or even by static electricity built up in your body under certain conditions, can ignite petrol vapour, which in a confined space is highly explosive. Always disconnect the battery earth (ground) terminal before working on any part of the fuel or electrical system, and never risk spilling fuel on to a hot engine or exhaust. It is recommended that a fire extinguisher of a type suitable for fuel and electrical fires is kept handy in the garage or workplace at all times. Never try to extinguish a fuel or electrical fire with water.
Fumes Certain fumes are highly toxic and can quickly cause unconsciousness and even death if inhaled to any extent. Petrol (gasoline) vapour comes into this category, as do the vapours from certain solvents such as trichloroethylene. Any draining or pouring of such volatile fluids should be done in a well ventilated area. When using cleaning fluids and solvents, read the instructions carefully. Never use materials from unmarked containers — they may give off poisonous vapours. Never run the engine of a motor vehicle in an enclosed space such as a garage. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide which is extremely poisonous; if you need to run the engine, always do so in the open air or at least have the rear of the vehicle outside the workplace. If you are fortunate enough to have the use of an inspection pit, never drain or pour petrol, and never run the engine, while the vehicle is standing over it; the fumes, being heavier than air, will concentrate in the pit with possibly lethal results.
The battery Never cause a spark, or allow a naked light, near the vehicle’s battery. It will normally be giving off a certain amount of hydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. Always disconnect the battery earth (ground) terminal before working on the fuel or electrical systems. If possible, loosen the filler plugs or cover when charging the battery from an external source. Do not charge at an excessive rate or the battery may burst. Take care when topping up and when carrying the battery. The acid electrolyte, even when diluted, is very corrosive and should not be allowed to contact the eyes or skin. If you ever need to prepare electrolyte yourself, always add the acid slowly to the water, and never the other way round. Protect against splashes by wearing rubber gloves and goggles. When jump starting a car using a booster battery, for negative earth (ground) vehicles, connect the jump leads in the following sequence: First connect one jump lead between the positive (+) terminals of the two batteries. Then connect the other jump lead first to the negative (—) terminal of the booster battery, and then to a good earthing (ground) point on the vehicle to be started, at least 18 in (45 cm) from the battery if possible. Ensure that hands and jump leads are clear of any moving parts, and that the two vehicles do not touch. Disconnect the leads in the reverse order.

works from the mains, always ensure that the appliance is correctly connected to its plug and that, where necessary, it is properly earthed (grounded). Do not use such appliances in damp conditions and, again, beware of creating a spark or applying excessive heat in the vicinity of fuel or fuel vapour.
Asbestos
Ignition HT voltage
Certain friction, insulating, sealing, and other products — such as brake linings, brake bands, clutch linings, torque converters, gaskets, etc — contain asbestos. Extreme care must be taken to avoid inhalation of dust from such products since it is hazardous to health. \f in doubt, assume that they do contain asbestos.
A severe electric shock can result from touching certain parts of the ignition system, such as the HT leads, when the engine is running or being cranked, particularly if components are damp or the insulation is defective. Where an electronic ignition system is fitted, the HT voltage is much higher and could prove fatal.

The maintenance instructions listed are those recommended by the manufacturer. They are supplemented by additional maintenance tasks which, from practical experience, need to be carried out. The additional tasks are indicated by an asterisk and are primarily of a preventative nature — they will assist in eliminating the unexpected failure of a component.
Weekly, before a long journey, or every 250 miles (400 km) 1 Remove the dipstick and check the engine oil level which should be up to the ‘MAX’ mark. Top up the oil in the sump with Castrol GTX. On no account allow the oil to fall below the ‘MIN’ mark on the dipstick. The distance between the ‘MAX’ and ‘MIN’ marks corresponds to the approximately 1.5 pints
(0.85 litre). 2 Check the battery electrolyte level and top up as necessary with distilled water. Make sure that the top of the battery is always kept clean and free of mcisture. See Chapter 10.
3 Inspect the level of water in the translucent plastic reservoir. This should be maintained at the required level mark by adding soft water, such as rain water, via the cap. If the reservoir is empty, remove the radiator filler plug, completely fill the radiator and replace the filler plug. Remove the reservoir
screwed cap and half fill the reservoir. Refit the cap. Check for leaks. See Chapter 4. 4 Check the tyre pressure with an accurate gauge and adjust as necessary. Make sure that the tyre walls and treads are free of damage. Remember that the tyre tread should have a minimum of 1 millimetre depth across three quarters of the total width of the tread. 5 Refill the windscreen washer container with soft water. Add an anti-freezing solution satchet in cold weather to prevent freezing (do not use ordinary anti-freeze). Check that the jets Operate correctly. 6 Remove the wheel trims and check all wheel nuts for tightness but take care not to overtighten.
The interval between oil changes should be reduced in very hot or dusty conditions or during coot weather with much slow or stop/start driving. 2 Wipe the top of the carburettor suction chamber and unscrew and withdraw the oil cap. Top up the dashpot with fresh Castrol
GTX to raise the level to % inch (13mm) above the top of the hollow piston rod. Push the damper assembly back into position and screw the cap firmly into position. 3 Check the carburettor adjustment as described in Chapter 3. 4 Carefully examine the cooling and heater systems for signs of leaks. Make sure that all hose clips are tight and that none of the hoses have cracked or perished. Do not attempt to repair a leaking hose, always fit new. Generally inspect the exterior of the engine for signs of water leaks or stains. The method of repair will depend on its location. This check is particularly important before filling the cooling system with anti-freeze as it has a greater searching action than pure water and is bound to find any weak spots. 5 The fan belt adjustment must be tight enough to drive the alternator without overloading the bearings, including the water pump bearings too. The method of adjusting the fan belt is described in Chapter 2. It is correct when it can be pressed in % inch (18mm) under moderate hand pressure at the mid point of its longest run from the alternator to the crankshaft pulley. 6 Lubricate the accelerator control linkage cable and pedal fulcrum with a little engine oil. 7 Inspect the steering rack rubber boots for signs of leaking which, if evident, must be rectified as described in Chapter 11. 8

Every 6000 miles (10000 km) or 6 months Complete the service items in the weekly service check as applicable, plus: 1 Run the engine until it is hot and then place a container of 8 pints (4.55 litres) under the engine sump drain plug located on the right hand side at the rear of the sump. Remove the drain plug and its copper sealing washer. Allow the oil to drain out for 10 minutes. Whilst this is being done unscrew the old oil filter cartridge located on the right hand side of the engine and discard. Smear the rubber seal on a new cartridge with a little oil and refit it to the filter head. Screw it on and tighten hand tight only. Clean the oil filler cap in paraffin and wipe dry. Check the drain plug copper sealing washer and if damaged fit a new one. Refit the drain plug and sealing
washer. Refill the engine with 6.375 pints (3.8 litres) of Castrol GTX and clean off any oil which may have been spilt over the engine or its components. Run the engine and check the oil level.

Make sure the cap breatner vent is clean and then refit the cap. Take care not to spill any hydraulic fluid on the paintwork as it acts as a solvent. 12 Check the adjustment of the handbrake and footbrake. If travel is excessive refer to Chapter 9 and check the footbrake adjustment and then the handbrake if its travel is still excessive. 13 Refer to Chapter 9 and inspect the brake linings and pads for wear and the front discs and rear drums for scoring. 14 Carefully examine all brake hydraulic pipes and unions for signs of leakage. Check flexible hoses are not in contact with any body or mechanical component when the steering is turned through both locks.

21 Refer to Chapter 4, and check the ignition timing. Adjust if necessary. 22 Wipe the area around the gearbox level/filler plug. Unscrew the plug and check the level of oil which should be up to the bottom of the threads. Top up if necessary using Castrol Hypoy and refit the plug. Wipe away any spilled oil. 23 Wipe the area around the rear axle level/filler plug. Unscrew the plug and check the level of oil which should be up to the bottom of the threads. Top up if necessary using Castrol Hypoy and refit the plug. Wipe away any spilled oil. 24 Automatic transmission: With the vehicle standing on level ground, apply the handbrake and move the selector to the ‘P’ position. Start the engine and allow to run at idle speed for a minimum of 2 minutes. With the engine still running withdraw the dipstick from the filler tube to be found at the rear of the engine compartment. Wipe the dipstick and quickly replace and withdraw the dipstick again. Check the level of oil and top up if necessary with Castrol TOF. Take great care not to overfill. 25 Generally check the operation of all lights and electrical equipment. Renew any blown bulbs with bulbs of the same wattage rating and rectify any electrical equipment fault. See Chapter 10. 26 Check the battery electrolyte specific gravity as described in Chapter 10. Clean the battery terminals and smear them with vaseline (petroleum jelly) to prevent corrosion. 27 Check the alignment of the headlights and adjust if necessary. See Chapter 10. 28 Apply a few drops of engine oil to the dynamo rear bearing
(where applicable). 29 Check the condition of the windscreen wiper blades and fit new if the blade end ‘has frayed, softened or perished. They should be renewed every 12 months. Generally check the exhaust system for signs of leaks. Apply a little Holts Silencer Seal or Gum Gum to small blow holes. If badly corroded the system must be renewed. Check all exhaust mountings for tightness. Carefully examine all clutch and fuel lines and unions for signs of leakage and flexible hoses for signs of perishing. Check the tightness of all unions and renew any faulty lines or hoses. Lubricate all door, bonnet and boot lid locks, hinges and centrols with Castrol Everyman. Inspect the seat belts for damage to the webbing. Check that all seat and seat belt mountings are tight. Make sure that the rear view mirror is firm in its mounting and is not crazed or cracked. Wash the bodywork and chromium fittings and clean out the interior of the car. Wax polish the bodywork including all

Tools and working facilities Introduction A selection of good tools is a fundamental requirement for anyone contemplating the maintenance and repair of a motor vehicle. For the owner who does not possess any, their purchase will prove a considerable expense, offsetting some of the savings made by doing-it-yourself. However, provided that the tools purchased are of good quality, they will last for many years and prove an extremely worthwhile investment. To help the average owner to decide which tools are needed to carry out the various tasks detailed in this manual, we have compiled three lists of tools under the following headings: Maintenance and minor repair, Repair and overhaul, and Special. The newcomer to practical mechanics should start off with the Maintenance and minor repair tool kit and confine himself to the simpler jobs around the vehicle. Then, as his confidence and experience grows, he can undertake more difficult tasks, buying extra tools as, and when, they are needed. In this way, a Maintenance and minor repair tool kit can be built-up into a Repair and overhau! tool kit over a considerable period of time without any major cash outlays. The experienced do-it-yourselfer will have a tool kit good enough for most repairs and overhaul procedures and will add tools from the Specia/ category when he feels the expense is justified by the amount of use these tools will be put to. It is obviously not possible to cover the subject of tools fully here. For those who wish to learn more about tools and their use there is a book entitled How to Choose and Use Car Tools available from the publishers of this manual.
Maintenance and minor repair tool kit The tools given in this list should be considered as a minimum requirement if routine maintenance, servicing and minor repair operations are to be undertaken. We recommend the purchase of
combination
spanners
The tools in this list will occasionally need to be supplemented by tools from the Special list.
Sockets (or box spanners) to cover range in previous list Reversible ratchet drive (for use with sockets)
Extension piece, 10 inch (for use with sockets) Universal joint (for use with sockets) Torque wrench (for use with sockets) ‘Mole’ wrench - 8 inch Ball pein hammer Soft-faced hammer, plastic or rubber
Screwdriver - 6 in long x 5/16 in dia (flat blade) Screwdriver - 2 in long x 5/16 in square (flat blade) Screwdriver - 1% in long x % in dia (cross blade) Screwdriver - 3 in long x 1/8 in dia (electricians) Pliers - electricians side cutters Pliers - needle nosed Pliers - circlip (internal and external)

Special tools The tools in this list are those which are not used regularly, are expensive to buy, or which need to be used in accordance with their manufacturers’ instructions. Unless relatively difficult mechanical jobs are undertaken frequently, it will not be economical to buy many of these tools. Where this is the case,
you could consider clubbing together with friends (or joining a motorists’ club) to make a joint purchase, or borrowing the tools against a deposit from a local garage or tool hire specialist. The following list contains only those tools and instruments freely available to the public, and not those special tools produced by the vehicle manufacturer specifically for its dealer network. You will find occasional references to these manufacturers’ special tools in the text of this manual. Generally, an alternative method of doing the job without the vehicle manufacturer's special tool is given. However, sometimes, there
is no alternative to using them. Where this is the case and the relevant tool cannot be bought or borrowed, entrust the work to a franchised garage. Valve spring compressor
Piston ring compressor 8ailjoint separator
Universal hub/bearing puller
Repair and overhaul tool kit These tools are virtually essential for anyone undertaking any major repairs to amotor vehicle, and are additional to those given
in the Maintenance and minor repair list. \ncluded in this list is a comprehensive set of sockets, Although these are expensive they will be found invaluable as they are so versatile - particularly if various drives are included in the set. We recommend the ¥ in square-drive type, as this can be used with most proprietary torque wrenches, If you cannot afford a socket set, even bought piecemeal, then inexpensive tubular box spanners are a useful alternative,

Tools and working facilities
Buying tools For practically all tools, a tool factor is the best source since he will have a very comprehensive range compared with the
average garage or accessory shop. Having said that, accessory shops often offer excellent quality tools at discount prices, so it pays to shop around.
Remember, you don’t have to buy the most expensive items on the shelf, but it is always advisable to steer clear of the very cheap tools. There are plenty of good tools around at reasonable prices, so ask the proprietor or manager of the shop for advice before making a purchase.
Care and maintenance of tools Having purchased a reasonable tool kit, it is necessary to keep the tools in a clean serviceable condition. After use, always wipe off any dirt, grease and metal particles using a clean, dry cloth, before putting the tools away. Never leave them lying around after they
have been used. A simple tool rack on the garage or
workshop wall, for items such as screwdrivers and pliers, is a good idea. Store all normal spanners and sockets in a metal box. Any measuring instruments, gauges, meters, etc, must be carefully stored where they cannot be damaged or become rusty. Take a little care when tools are used. Hammer heads inevitably become marked and screwdrivers lose the keen edge on
their blades from time-to-time. A little timely attention with emery cloth or a file will soon restore items like this to a good serviceable finish.
Working facilities Not to be forgotten when discussing tools, is the workshop itself. If anything more than routine maintenance is to be carried out, some form of suitable working area becomes essential. It is appreciated that many an owner mechanic is forced by circumstances to remove an engine or similar item without the benefit of a garage or workshop. Having done this, any repairs should always be done under the cover of a roof.Wherever possible, any dismantling should be done on a clean flat workbench or table at a suitable working height. Any workbench needs a vice: one with a jaw opening of 4 in (100 mm) is suitable for most jobs. As mentioned previously,
some clean, dry storage space is also required for tools, as well as the lubricants, cleaning fluids, touch-up paints and so on which become necessary.
Another item which may be required, and which has a much more general usage, is an electric drill with a chuck capacity of
at least 5/16 in (8 mm). This, together with a good range of twist drills, is virtually essential for fitting accessories such as wing mirrors and reversing lights. Last, but not least, always keep a supply of old newspapers and clean, lint-free rags available, and try to keep any working area as clean as possible.
