Cooling System
The AJ28 engine retains the same basic cooling
system as the previous V8 engines but shares the
radiator, fan shroud assembly, de-gas circuit and
bottom hose oil cooler circulator features with the
V6. The coolant specified for the V6 is also
applicable to the V8 engine.
Particular features of the AJ28 cooling system are:
¥ The thermostat is located in the engine
mounted housing as in previous V8 engines.
¥ The thermostat housing is modified with an
extra stub pipe for the new heater returnhose.
¥ The throttle adaptor is heated from the main
cooling system to provide throttle de-icing.
¥ Both heater hoses, feed and return, are now
routed forward to the heater control valve.
¥ An electric pump is fitted in the heater
coolant circuit (ÔS-TYPE IntroductionÕ
Technical Guide).
¥ The coolant reservoir (de-gas bottle) is fitted
with a level sensor which provides a low level
warning on the instrument panel message

¥ The fail safe cooling strategy described for the
V6 is not applicable to the AJ28 engine.
Cooling System Hoses
The cooling system hoses are constructed of the
same materials and have the same type of fittings
as the V6 engine.

Air Induction System
Charge air is supplied to the cylinders via an air
cleaner, induction tube, throttle body, throttle
body adaptor and induction manifold.
The throttle body and system operation is
identical to that of the V6 engine.
Induction Manifold
(see illustration on page 52)
To accommodate the V8 engine in the S-TYPE
model, the throttle body is re-located and now
supplies charge air via an inlet at the top centre of
the induction manifold. The manifold is
manufactured from a plastic material and has an
integral injector air supply tube on each side with
holes for the fuel injectors, but as on the AJ27
engine, the fuel feed pipes are not incorporated
into the manifold (see Fuel System). Two stub
pipes at the top of the manifold provide vacuum
connections for the vacuum hose and the brake
servo hose.
A polypropylene covered foam noise isolation pad
fits between the manifold assembly and the block.Throttle Adaptor
The throttle body is mounted to the induction
manifold via a cast aluminium adaptor. The
throttle body adaptor provides input ports for the
evaporative emissions (top stub) and part load
breather (lower side stub) and also mounts the air
assisted injection control (AAC) valve. Input and
output ports for the side mounted AAC valve are
an integral part of the adaptor casting (the ports
do not connect to the induction airstream).
Throttle de-icing is achieved by a coolant feed
through the base of the adaptor instead of the
throttle body itself as on the V6 engine (see
cooling section).

Induction and Vacuum System
Emission and vacuum connections to the
induction system are shown in the illustration
above.Variable Valve Timing (VVT)
The inlet valve timing gear is fitted with the same
continuously VVT system as is used on the AJ27
engine. Operation is as described in the ÔXJ and
XK Series 1999MY UpdateÕ Technical Guide, with
the following variations:
¥ engine management system
¥ PWM solenoid control frequency is 300Hz
¥ the use of five toothed sensor rings for cam
position feedback
Note that the use of this VVT system eliminates
the need for external EGR components.

Engine Management Sensors
The configuration of the AJ28 engine management sensors is changed from the previous V8 variants:
¥ New components unique to AJ28 engine are the MAF sensor and engine fuel temperature (EFT)
sensor.
¥ Components in common with the V6 engine are the IAT sensor, KS sensors, injector pressure (IP)
sensor, engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor and HO2 sensors.
¥ The crankshaft (CKP) and camshaft (CMP) sensors are the same as those fitted to the AJ27 engine.
Heated Oxygen (HO2) Sensors
Upstream and dowmstream HO2 sensors are
fitted and are of the type used on the V6 engine
(the linear type sensor is not used).

the PCM. Double electrode platinum plugs are
fitted.

Fuel Injection
Returnless Fuel System
The function and operation of the returnless fuel
system is the same as that fitted to the V6 engine
but with different fuel pipework to suit the V8
layout. The air assisted, top fed, fuel injectors are
supplied from two separate rails joined by an
interconnecting cross-over pipe (similar to AJ27)
with a single common feed from the fuel tank.
The fuel rail assembly is removeable. An engine
fuel temperature (EFT) sensor and injector
pressure (IP) sensor provide feedback to the PCM
to control the fuel pump flow rate (see ÔS-TYPE
IntroductionÕ Technical Guide). Note that the EFT
sensor is not in direct contact with the fuel (ÔdryÕ
type sonser).
