HOW TO STRIP THE EGO
FIG 6.40
Remove the bolt and bolt pin, disconnect any hosing and unscrew the inline
regulator from the front bottle mount as detailed above.
Using a 5/64th" hex key remove the six screws that attach the Eclipse Ego
grips to the Eclipse Ego frame (SEE FIGURE 6.38).
Unplug the solenoid and unplug the Break-Beam sensors from their ports on
the Eclipse Ego printed circuit board (SEE FIGURE 6.39).
Using a 1/8th" hex key undo the two frame retaining screws (SEE FIGURE 6.40)
and remove the frame from the Eclipse Ego body, taking care not to damage
any wires (SEE FIGURE 6.41).
Using a 1/8th" hex key loosen the set screw that retains the frame tag, and
slide the frame tag rearwards until it is free from the marker body (SEE FIGURE
6.42).
Free the hose from the barb tting at the rear of the front regulator mount,
using a pick or other suitable implement (SEE FIGURE 6.43).
FIG 6.38
Carefully lift the low-pressure hose, which runs from the rear Eclipse QEV
to the minifold, clear from its groove in the Eclipse Ego body, so that the
rammer assembly is ready to be removed from the Eclipse Ego body (SEE
FIGURE 6.44).
FIG 6.44
Using a 1/8th" hex key, remove the valve plug from the underside of the
Eclipse Ego body (SEE FIGURE 6.45).
Gently slide the rammer assembly rearwards until the minifold lines up with
the access slot in the bottom of the Eclipse Ego body. With the Eclipse
Ego upside down and facing forward, tilt the solenoid and minifold to the
left freeing the right hand side of the minifold allowing both the minifold and
solenoid to be freed from the Eclipse Ego body (SEE FIGURE 6.46).
Slide the rammer assembly out of the rear of the Eclipse Ego, remembering to
remove the valve and valve spring (SEE FIGURE 6.47).
Remove the exhaust valve and valve spring from the rammer assembly, and
inspect the sealing face of both the rammer assembly body and exhaust valve
for any excessive wear or damage (SEE FIGURE 6.48). If the exhaust valve or
brass bushed valve guide is damaged then replace using authentic Eclipse
Ego parts.
Taking the Eclipse Ego body, turn it so that
the underside of the front regulator mount
(FRM) is visible, exposing the retaining
screw (SEE FIGURE 6.49). Using a 3/16th"
hex key remove the FRM retaining
screw and remove the FRM from the
Eclipse Ego body (SEE FIGURE 6.50).
Once the FRM has been removed
the LPR body is exposed through the
bottom of the Eclipse Ego body. Slide
the complete LPR out of the Eclipse
Ego body (SEE FIGURE 6.51).
