DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Vehicle speed sensor
The vehicle speed sensor is located on the transfer
box behind the transmission brake. The unit has a
multirole as the vehicle electronic speedometer
sensor and as a sensor for 'surge damping', (a
function which smooths out engine response to sharp
accelerator movement and reduces vehicle 'bucking').
The sensor is an additional input for engine overheat
protection.
Brake and clutch switches
The brake and clutch switches are located on the
pedal box and serve as safety features to the system.
They return information to the ECM which limits
maximum fuel quantity under braking.
Throttle position sensor
The accelerator pedal is connected directly to a
sensor mounted in the pedal box. Driver demand is
relayed back to the ECM to increase or decrease
injected fuel quantity.
Incorporated in the sensor is a backup idle switch
which the system will default to in the event of sensor
failure.
Boost pressure sensor
The boost pressure sensor is mounted on the
bulkhead. It relays boost pressure information to the
ECM which compensates fuel quantity to reduce
smoke during acceleration.
Electro-pneumatic modulator
The electro-pneumatic modulator is located on the
inner wing just forward of the air cleaner. It regulates
vacuum signals from the source to the EGR valve.
The ECM controls the modulator to open the EGR
valve according to required airflow.Exhaust gas recirculation valve
The EGR valve is located on the engine exhaust
manifold and is controlled by vacuum from the
electro-pneumatic modulator.
Once open the EGR valve directs a quantity of
exhaust gas back into the inlet manifold to be burnt
inside the engine. This reduces NOx (Oxides of
nitrogen) emissions of the engine.
Temperature sensors
Water, Fuel and Air temperature sensors monitor
engine conditions and relay their information back to
the ECM which makes adjustments to injected fuel
quantity, injection timing, EGR and corrections to
measured boost pressure and airflow.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS BASE IDLE SPEED SETTING
NOTE: Base idle speed is set at factory. It
should not require further adjustment
unless plenum chamber is changed. The
adjustment screw is sealed with a plug to prevent
unauthorised alteration. Check ignition timing
before attempting following procedure, since this
will affect idle speed.
Equipment required
Two blanking hoses.these are manufactured using
a new air by-pass valve hose - Part No.ETC7874. Cut
two equal pieces 90mm long from hose and seal one
end of each, using 13mm diameter bar. Use a suitable
clamp to ensure an air tight seal.
Checking procedure
1.Drive vehicle at least two miles until engine and
transmission are hot. Switch off engine.
2.Check all electrical loads are OFF, including air
conditioning.
3.Remove air by-pass valve hose.
4.Fit blanking hoses to both plenum chamber and
air by-pass valve. Ensure hoses are securely
fitted to prevent air leaks. Note throttle cable and
cruise control actuator have been omitted from
illustration.5.Start engine and check idle speed is within
limits.

Information, Engine 3.9 v8i

6.Drill tamper proof plug and insert a self tapping
screw to enable plug to be extracted.
7.Start engine, adjust idle screw clockwise to
decrease or counter-clockwise to increase idle
speed.
8.Stop engine, remove blanking hoses. Reconnect
hose to plenum.
9.Fit new tamper proof plug.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ENGINE COOLING
Description
The V8i engine uses a pressurised cooling system
and cross flow radiator which is supplied from a
separate header tank. The coolant radiator also
incorporates a section at the left hand end for cooling
the transmission oil and a section at the other end for
cooling the engine oil.The belt driven viscous fan and centrifugal water
pump is located in the engine front cover with ports for
circulation of coolant to both banks of cylinders and
cylinder heads. Coolant returns to the top of the
radiator via ports in the inlet manifold where the
thermostat is mounted horizontally.
Coolant also circulates through the vehicle heating
system and is used to heat air entering the inlet
manifold plenum chamber.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS CLUTCH ASSEMBLY CONDITIONS
For the clutch to operate correctly as described and
illustrated in the "Description and Operation", it is
important the following conditions are satisfied:-
A. The primary shaft 15 must be free in the
crankshaft spigot bush 17.
B. The friction plate 2 must be able to slide easily
on the splines on the primary shaft 15, to a
position where it does not contact either the
flywheel or the pressure plate.
C. The friction plate must not be distorted or the
linings contaminated with oil, which may cause it
to stick or continue to run in contact with the
flywheel or pressure plate.
A number of faults can develop in the operation of the
clutch for a variety of reasons and although most
faults are due to normal wear at high mileage,
problems can also occur if the unit has been renewed
by an unskilled operator.
Recognising and diagnosing a particular clutch fault is
therefore of paramount importance in ensuring, that
the problem is rectified at the first attempt.
Problems which develop in the clutch are as follows:-
A. Clutch spin/drag
B. Clutch slip
C. Clutch judder/fierceCLUTCH SPIN - DRAG
Symptoms
Clutch spin is that, with engine running and clutch
pedal depressed, the gears cannot be immediately
engaged without making a grinding noise. This
indicates the clutch is not making a clean break.
However, if the clutch pedal is held depressed for
several seconds the friction plate will eventually break
free from the engine and the gear will engage silently.
Clutch spin as it becomes more severe develops into
clutch drag, making the silent engagement of a gear
impossible, regardless of how long the pedal is held
depressed.
CLUTCH SLIP
Symptoms
Clutch slip is most evident climbing a hill or when the
vehicle is moving off from stationary with a heavy
load. As the clutch is released slip occurs between the
engine and the transmission, allowing the engine
speed to increase without a corresponding increase in
vehicle speed.
Clutch slip can develop to the stage where no power
is transmitted through the clutch as the pedal is
released.
CLUTCH JUDDER - FIERCE
Symptoms
Clutch judder or fierce engagement, like slip, is most
likely to occur when the vehicle is moving off from
stationary. As the clutch pedal is released the vehicle
will move rapidly or in a series of jerks, which can not
be controlled even by careful operation of the clutch
by the driver.
It should be noted that a vehicle may display all the
symptoms or any combination of the symptoms
described, depending on the driving conditions vehicle
load and operating temperatures.
