The eccentric rotor oil pump is integrated with the stiffener plate and contains no serviceable parts except for the
pressure relief valve spring. The oil pump drive sprocket is attached to the front of the stiffener plate and is driven
through a chain and sprocket system.
A pressure relief valve is included at the outlet side of the oil pump to restrict oil pressure at high engine speeds by
recirculating oil through the relief valve back around the pump to the inlet. The relief valve and spring is a plunger type.
When oil pressure is great enough to lift the plunger, oil is allowed to escape past the plunger to relieve pressure and
prevent further rise.
Oil is delivered to the pump from the pick-up through a channel in the stiffener plate. The outlet side of the oil pump
delivers pressurised oil flow to the engine block main oil delivery gallery through a port in the stiffener plate.
Piston lubrication jets
Piston lubrication jets are fitted to the cylinder block to provide lubrication to the cylinder walls, and to the piston
underskirt for cooling the pistons and lubricating the gudgeon pins. The input port to each lubrication jet mates with a
port provided in each mounting position tapped at the underside of the cylinder block from the main oil delivery gallery.
When oil pressure is sufficient to supply flow through the jets, oil is squirted to the inside of the cylinder walls to provide
piston to wall lubrication and cooling and to the underside of the piston skirt at the bottom of the piston stroke (gallery
cooled piston). The squirt jets also provide splash feed lubrication supply to the small end bearings of the connecting
rods.
Each lubrication jet is fixed to a mounting position on the underside of the engine block by a single Torx screw.
Chain lubrication jet
A chain lubrication jet is located on the front face of the cylinder block, behind the front engine timing chain cover. The
inlet port to the lubrication jet mates with an oil supply port from the cylinder block main oil delivery gallery. The
lubrication jet is fixed to the front of the engine block by a single screw. Additional chain lubrication is provided by oil
supply through a small aperture tapped from the cylinder head oil delivery gallery.

Fuel connector block
A = Pre EU3 models, B = EU3 models
1Fuel connector block assembly
2Outlet stub pipe
3Stub pipe – to fuel cooler
4Fuel temperature sensor
5Fuel pressure regulator
6Spill fuel return connection (EU3 models only)
A cast and machined alloy fuel connector block assembly is located at the rear RH side of the cylinder head, attached
by three flanged bolts. A metal gasket is used to seal the faces between the fuel connector block and the cylinder
head, which must be replaced every time the fuel connector block is removed.
CAUTION: The cylinder head incorporates drillings for the fuel injection system, any contamination which
enters these drillings could cause engine running problems or injector failure. It is therefore, essential that
absolute cleanliness is maintained when carrying out work on the cylinder head.
CAUTION: The valve heads, tips of the injectors and glow plugs protrude below the face of the cylinder head
and will be damaged if the cylinder head is stored face down.
Camshaft carrier
The cast aluminium alloy camshaft carrier is bolted to the cylinder head by thirteen screws. The camshaft carrier and
cylinder head assembly is attached to the cylinder block by twelve cylinder head retaining bolts which pass through
the camshaft carrier and the cylinder head to secure the assembly to the cylinder block.
The carrier is machined together with the cylinder head to form a matched pair for carrying the camshaft.
Non-return valve
A non-return valve is located at the front, bottom LH side of the cylinder head. The non-return valve prevents oil from
draining from the lash adjusters and is an integral component within the cylinder head and is non-serviceable.

ENGINE - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 12-1-25
Inlet and exhaust valves
The inlet and exhaust valves are mounted directly above the engine block cylinders.
Each valve is a forged and ground solid one-piece head and stem which is hardened by heat treatment. The stems
are chrome-plated then ground for improved heat transfer, wear resistance and smooth operation. It is not possible
to recut the valve's face angle, but the valves can be lapped to their seats using grinding paste.
The valve springs are made from spring steel and are of the parallel single-coil type. The bottom end of the spring
rests on the flange of a spring seal which has a centre bore that locates on a recess ground into the lower valve stem.
The top end of the spring is held in place by a spring retainer which is held in position at the top end of the valve stem
by split taper collets. The taper collets have grooves on the internal bore that locate to grooves ground into the upper
stems of the valves.
The valve seats and valve guides are sintered and are interference fit into the cylinder head. The valve seats and
guides are non-serviceable.
Finger followers and Lash adjusters
1Valve stem
2Finger follower
3Lash adjuster plunger
4Oil supply hole
5Lash adjuster body
The valves are operated through finger followers and lash adjusters, actuated by the camshaft lobes. When the
camshaft lobe presses down on the top of a finger follower roller mechanism, the respective valve is forced down
opening the effected inlet or exhaust port.
The lash adjuster body contains a plunger and two chambers for oil feed and pressurised oil. Pressurised oil is
supplied to the lash adjusters via the oil galleries in the cylinder head and through a hole in the side of the lash adjuster
body. The oil passes into a feed chamber in the lash adjuster then through to a separate pressure chamber via a one
way ball valve. Oil flow from the pressure chamber is determined by the amount of clearance between the lash
adjuster outer body and the centre plunger, oil escapes up the side of the plunger every time the lash adjuster is
operated, the downward pressure on the plunger forcing a corresponding amount of oil in the lash adjuster body to
be displaced. When the downward pressure from the camshaft and finger follower is removed (i.e. after the trailing
flank of the camshaft lobe has passed), oil pressure forces the lash adjuster's plunger up again. This pressure is not
sufficient to affect the valve operation, but eliminates the clearance between the finger follower and top of the valve
stem.

EMISSION CONTROL - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 17-1-9
The ILT valve is used on certain exhaust gas recirculation systems in addition to the standard EGR valve described
above. The ILT valve assembly is mounted at right angles to the EGR valve on the left hand side of the EGR valve
assembly. It is fixed to the EGR valve assembly by three screws.
A vacuum port on top of the ILT valve connects to the ILT modulator though a blue, small-bore suction hose. When
a vacuum is applied to the inlet throttle (ILT) valve suction port, a butterfly valve in the inlet manifold closes via a
spindle and lever mechanism, limiting the supply of fresh intercooled air and creating a depression in the intake
manifold which in turn causes a greater suction at the open port to the EGR delivery pipe. When the vacuum source
is removed from the ILT valve suction port, a spring returns the butterfly to its fully open position. The ILT valve and
EGR valve are operated in conjunction to control the proportional masses of fresh intake air and recirculated exhaust
gas that is allowed to flow through to the inlet manifold.
The EGR valve and ILT valve should be replaced as a single assembly.
In-line air filter - Pre EU3 models
1To modulator vent port
2Filter element
3To atmosphere
The in-line air filter is placed in the ventilation line to the EGR modulator (and the ILT modulator where fitted). The
modulators need to be able to vent to atmosphere in order to release the vacuum supplied to the EGR and ILT valves.
The filter prevents contamination entering the modulators via the vent port which could cause failure; the filter should
be periodically changed in accordance with recommended service intervals. The filter is attached to the rear side of
the mounting plate used to hold the vacuum modulators at the inner wing on the RH side of the engine. The filter is
held in position by a clamping bracket which is attached to the mounting plate through a nut and bolt. The filter must
be mounted in the vertical position.
Note: EU3 models are not fitted with an in-line filter, the ventilation line connects directly to the air cleaner housing,
where it vents to atmosphere.
