Introduction
The Ford models Series AU, AU II and AU III covered by this manual are available in four-door sedan, wagon and two-door utility and van body styles. These cars have the conventional front engine/rearwheel drive layout. The engines are all inline six-cylinder with a 4.0 litre Multiport Electronic Fuel Injection (MPEFI). Power from the engine is transferred through an automatic or manual transmission to the differential by a tubular driveshaft incorporating universal joints. Axles (either solid or, on models with IRS, articulated) carry power from the differential to the rear wheels.
Suspension is independent in the front, with upper and lower control arms used to locate the knuckle assembly at each wheel. The rear suspension on some sedan models uses a solid axle located by coil springs, four suspension arms and a Watts link type track bar. Other models have independent rear suspension, which utilises upper and lower control arms and coil-cover shock absorber assemblies. On utility, van and wagon models, leaf spring rear suspension is used.
Rack-and-pinion type steering gear is used. Power assisted steering is standard. The brakes are disc in front and rear, with the rear disc incorporating an integral drum used for the parking brake. Antilock Brake System (ABS) is available as an option for all models.
