PREFACE
This manual combines under one cover complete service information for the 1952 Ford
Passenger Car. All aspects of the servicing of the
parts, assemblies, or systems involved will be
found here. Repair men will find step by step
procedures plus disassembled views of all of
the assemblies. The diagnostician will find that
working procedures for each kind of trouble he
will encounter are covered. Maintenance and
lubrication data is provided for those interested
in this aspect of service. Service Managers and
salesmen will find hints of everyday care that
they can pass on to their customers. Collision
men will find construction detail well illustrated
to assist them in collision work. Electrical men
will find simply written principles, not only of
operation, but of testing as well for each of the
electrical units or systems. Upholstery men will
find how-to-do-it procedures for their work.
Step-by-step procedures for the disassembly,
inspection, and repair are presented throughout
this manual. In addition, each assembly has been
illustrated disassembled, with each of the component parts arranged in the order of assembly
or disassembly. In many cases, a glance at these
illustrations will tell you all you need to know
about how the parts go together. These illustrations carry basic part numbers for each of the
parts. These basic numbers plus the model number of the car will permit you to order parts
from any Ford dealer even though you may not
have a "Parts Book."
In recognition of the specialization that is currently practiced in many service establishments,
this manual has been divided into five major
divisions. These five parts are as follows:
Part ONE-POWER PLANT -has to do with
the Ford engines and the various systems that
are necessary to their operation. These include
fuel. system, ignition system, and the cooling
system.
Part TWO-CHASSIS-starting with the
clutch, covers the entire power train (clutch,
standard transmission, Overdrive, Fordomatic
transmission, drive line, rear axles, etc.) and the
running gear (wheels, tires, brakes, springs, suspension, frames, steering gear, and linkages, etc.).
Part THREE - ELECTRICAL AND ACCESSORIES-covers all of the electrical systems and units (other than ignition which is
covered in Part ONE) and all of the accessories,
except the Overdrive and Fordomatic trans-
missions which are covered in Part TWO, for
Ford cars.
Part FOUR-BODIES-contains complete
information on the maintenance and repair of
all body components, including adjustment and
alignment not only of the body proper, but also
of doors, deck lids, hoods, and fenders. In addition, convertible top maintenance and glass
adjustments are given.
Part FIVE-MAINTENANCE, TROUBLE
SHOOTING, AND SPECIFICATIONS-has
been arranged in the back of the book separately
for the convenience of quick service men. In this
part, all of the information ordinarily required
for quick service men and service salesmen has
been combined into three separate chapters.
The Table of Contents on the next page shows
not only the part break-down as described above,
but also the chapters that have been established
in each of the five parts. Each chapter has been
divided into sections which also are listed in the
Table of Contents. Regardless of the ,aspect of
service in which you are interested or the unit
of the vehicle in .which you may be specializing,
a glance at the Table of Contents will quickly
direct you to the portion of this manual in which
you are interested. If you are interested in maintenance procedures, trouble shooting, or specifications, the information you desire will be found
in Part FIVE. Otherwise, it will fall in one of the
four other parts. A quick glance at the chapter
and section listings under the part involved' will
direct you to the page desired.
Throughout this manual the top of each lefthand, even-numbered page gives the name of the
chapter; and the top of each right-hand, oddnumbered page gives the name of the section
involved. Thus, regardless of where you open
the manual, a glance at the top of the two pages
will tell you exactly what subject matter is
discussed at that point.
No one expects even the most experienced
mechanic to remember all details of servicing
these cars and you will find that you will have
to occasionally refer to this manual. Keep your
manual where it will be readily available for
reference at all times.

2. MANIFOLDS
A chamber is built into the intake manifold center
section where the carburetor and exhaust man ifold are
attached. An exhaust control valve, located in the exhaust manifoid, directs exhaust gases into this chamber
when the engine is cold to provide for faster intake
manifold warm-up.
NOTE: Do not re move manifolds when hot. They
may warp anrI make reassembly difficult.
a. Removal.
Lift up the hood, then remove the air cleaner and the
carburetor. D isconnect the throttle linkage and remove
the bell crank from the manifold. Disconnect the windshield wiper vacuum line.
Disconnect the muffler inlet pipe from the exhaust
manifold and pull the pipe away from the fl ange. Remove the manifold to head hold down bolts and lift the
manifold assembly off the head. Remove the intake port
ring inserts· and gaskets.
R emove the nuts and the bolt holding the m anifolds
together and separate the manifolds. A disassembled
v iew' of the manifolds in shown in fig. 5.
h. Cleaning.
Clean the gasket surfaces on the manifolds and the
cylinder head.
Clean the outside of the manifolds with solvent.
