The petrol feed pump will be supplied
in loose condition. Petrol

Use of feed pump will allow locating Filter

fuel tank at bottom portion of vehicle
with negative head.

This will ensure the continuous flow of
Feed
fuel to engine as and when
demanded which is essential for good Pump
performance of vehicle.
This also will ensure better safety
during fuel filling operation, since fuel

LOMBARDINI SCOPE
 Modifcations in Engine
At Lombardini, continuous improvement in products through R&D is carried out
for end customer delightment. Following are major modifications in LGA340
engines are made.
1. Modification in Piston Profile for Indian Market, CNG / LPG application
2. Chrome Plated Rings,
3. Spark Timing modification,
4. Higher Power Starter Motor for better start ability,
5. Increased Main Journal Diameter of Crankshaft for durability,
6. Carburettor modification with drain arrangement,
7. Wear Resistant Valve Seat
 Special Instruction
• Before carrying any welding activity, ensure spark plug cable removed
and remove Battery terminal cables. This will prevent burning of wiring
harness and HT Coil.
• Do not tamper Engine Intake System including Air Filter & it’s Position.
Tampering Intake system will reduce power and may yield in misfiring
during vehicle retardation.
• In case, if the silencer position need to be modified because of packaging
constraints, ensure back pressure does not exceed 450 mm of Water
Column.
• Fill the measured quantity of luboil from the Rocker Cover Filling Cap,
wait for 10 minutes to allow oil to reach bottom portion in crankcase and
then measure the level. If necessary, drain the excess oil by loosening side
drain plugs. Luboil level must be between lower and upper mark of
Dipstick. Level to be checked when vehicle on horizontal road.
• Fuel Pipes to be used should be of good quality petrol hoses.
