COOLING SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-2-9
Viscous fan
1Coolant pump pulley drive attachment
2Fan blades3Bi-metallic coil
4Body
The viscous fan provides a means of controlling the speed of the fan relative to the operating temperature of the
engine. The fan rotation draws air through the radiator, reducing engine coolant temperatures when the vehicle is
stationary or moving slowly.
The viscous fan is attached to the coolant pump drive pulley and secured to the pulley by a nut. The nut is positively
attached to a spindle which is supported on bearings in the fan body. The viscous drive comprises a circular drive
plate attached to the spindle and driven from the coolant pump pulley and the coupling body. The drive plate and the
body have interlocking annular grooves with a small clearance which provides the drive when silicone fluid enters the
fluid chamber. A bi-metallic coil is fitted externally on the forward face of the body. The coil is connected to and
operates a valve in the body. The valve operates on a valve plate with ports that connect the reservoir to the fluid
chamber. The valve plate also has return ports which, when the valve is closed, scoop fluid from the fluid chamber
and push it into the reservoir under centrifugal force.
Silicone fluid is retained in a reservoir at the front of the body. When the engine is off and the fan is stationary, the
silicone fluid level stabilises between the reservoir and the fluid chamber. This will result in the fan operating when the
engine is started, but the drive will be removed quickly after the fan starts rotating and the fan will 'freewheel'.
At low radiator temperatures, the fan operation is not required and the bi-metallic coil keeps the valve closed,
separating the silicone fluid from the drive plate. This allows the fan to 'freewheel' reducing the load on the engine,
improving fuel consumption and reducing noise generated by the rotation of the fan.
When the radiator temperature increases, the bi-metallic coil reacts and moves the valve, allowing the silicone fluid
to flow into the fluid chamber. The resistance to shear of the silicone fluid creates drag on the drive plate and provides
drive to the body and the fan blades.

HEATING AND VENTILATION
80-8DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Control panel
The controls for heating and ventilation are installed on a control panel in the centre of the fascia, below the radio.
Three rotary knobs control the LH and RH outlet temperatures and distribution. A slider switch controls blower speed.
A latching pushswitch controls the selection of fresh/recirculated air; an amber LED in the switch illuminates when
recirculated air is selected.
Graphics on the panel and the controls indicate the function and operating positions of the controls.
Outlet vent
The outlet vent promotes the free flow of heating and ventilation air through the cabin. The outlet vent is installed in
the RH rear quarter body panel and vents cabin air into the sheltered area between the rear quarter body panel and
the outer body side panel. The vent consists of a grille covered by soft rubber flaps and is effectively a non-return
valve. The flap opens and closes automatically depending on the differential between cabin and outside air pressures.
FBH system (diesel models only)
The FBH system is an auxiliary heating system that compensates for the relatively low coolant temperatures inherent
in the diesel engine. At low ambient temperatures, the FBH system heats the coolant supply to the heater assembly,
and maintains it within the temperature range required for good in-car heating performance. Operation is fully
automatic, with no intervention required by the driver.
The system consists of an air temperature sensor, a FBH fuel pump and a FBH unit. Fuel for the FBH system is taken
from the fuel tank, through a line attached to the fuel tank's fuel pump, and supplied via the FBH fuel pump to the FBH
unit. The connection on the fuel tank's fuel pump incorporates a tube which extends down into the tank. At the FBH
unit connection, the fuel line incorporates a self-sealing, quick disconnect coupling. In the FBH unit, the fuel delivered
by the FBH fuel pump is burned and the resultant heat output is used to heat the coolant. An ECU integrated into the
FBH unit controls the operation of the system at one of two heat output levels, 2.5 kW at part load and 5 kW at full load
Ambient temperature sensor
The ambient temperature sensor controls a power supply from the alternator to the FBH unit. The sensor is installed
on the RH support strut of the bonnet closing panel and contains a temperature sensitive switch that is closed at
temperatures below 5 °C (41 °F) and open at temperatures of 5 °C (41 °F) and above.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 80-9
FBH fuel pump
The FBH fuel pump regulates the fuel supply to the FBH unit. The FBH fuel pump is installed in a rubber mounting on
the chassis crossmember immediately in front of the fuel tank. The pump is a self priming, solenoid operated plunger
pump, with a fixed displacement of 0.063 ml/Hz. The ECU in the FBH unit outputs a pulse width modulated signal to
control the operation of the pump. When the pump is de-energised, it provides a positive shut-off of the fuel supply to
the FBH unit.

10Non return valve
The solenoid coil of the FBH fuel pump is installed around a housing which contains a plunger and piston. The piston
locates in a bush, and a spring is installed on the piston between the bush and the plunger. A filter insert and a fuel
line connector are installed in the inlet end of the housing. A non return valve and a fuel line connector are installed
in the fuel outlet end of the housing.
While the solenoid coil is de-energised, the spring holds the piston and plunger in the 'closed' position at the inlet end
of the housing. An 'O' ring seal on the plunger provides a fuel tight seal between the plunger and the filter insert,
preventing any flow through the pump. When the solenoid coil is energised, the piston and plunger move towards the
outlet end of the housing, until the plunger contacts the bush, and draw fuel in through the inlet connection and filter.
The initial movement of the piston also closes transverse drillings in the bush and isolates the pumping chamber at
the outlet end of the housing. Subsequent movement of the piston then forces fuel from the pumping chamber through
the non return valve and into the line to the FBH unit. When the solenoid coil de-energises, the spring moves the piston
and plunger back towards the closed position. As the piston and plunger move towards the closed position, fuel flows
passed the plunger and through the annular gaps and transverse holes in the bush to replenish the pumping chamber.
