COOLING SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-2-7
Inlet manifold - Cooling connections
Coolant leaves the cylinder block via an outlet pipe attached to the front of the air intake manifold. The pipe is
connected to the thermostat housing and the radiator by a branch hose off the radiator top hose.
Hot coolant from the engine is also directed from the inlet manifold via pipes and hoses into the heater matrix. Coolant
is circulated through the heater matrix at all times when the engine is running.
A further tapping from the inlet manifold supplies coolant to the throttle housing via a hose. The coolant circulates
through a plate attached to the bottom of the housing and is returned through a plastic bleed pipe to an expansion
tank. The hot coolant heats the air intake of the throttle housing preventing ice from forming.
An Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is fitted in the inlet manifold adjacent to the manifold outlet pipe. The
sensor monitors coolant temperature emerging from the engine and sends signals to the ECM for engine
management and temperature gauge operation.

Expansion tank
The expansion tank is located in the engine compartment. The tank is made from moulded plastic and attached to
brackets on the right hand inner wing. A maximum coolant when cold level is moulded onto the tank.
Excess coolant created by heat expansion is returned to the expansion tank from the radiator bleed pipe at the top of
the radiator. An outlet pipe is connected into the pump feed hose and replaces the coolant displaced by heat
expansion into the system when the engine is cool.
The expansion tank is fitted with a sealed pressure cap. The cap contains a pressure relief valve which opens to allow
excessive pressure and coolant to vent through the overflow pipe. The relief valve opens at a pressure of 1.4 bar (20
lbf.in
2) and above.
Heater matrix
The heater matrix is fitted in the heater assembly inside the passenger compartment. Two pipes pass through the
bulkhead into the engine compartment and provide coolant flow to and from the matrix. The pipes from the bulkhead
are connected to the matrix, sealed with 'O' rings and clamped with circular rings.
The matrix is constructed from aluminium with two end tanks interconnected with tubes. Aluminium fins are located
between the tubes and conduct heat away from the hot coolant flowing through the tubes. Air from the heater
assembly is warmed as it passes through the matrix fins. The warm air is then distributed into the passenger
compartment as required.

+ HEATING AND VENTILATION, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.When the engine is
running, coolant from the engine is constantly circulated through the heater matrix.
Radiator
The 45 row radiator is located at the front of the vehicle. The cross-flow type radiator is manufactured from aluminium
with moulded plastic end tanks interconnected with tubes. Aluminium fins are located between the tubes and conduct
heat from the hot coolant flowing through the tubes, reducing the cooling temperature as it flows through the radiator.
Air intake from the front of the vehicle when moving carries heat away from the fins. When the vehicle is stationary,
the viscous fan draws air through the radiator fins to prevent the engine from overheating.
Two connections at the top of the radiator provide for the attachment of the top hose and bleed pipe. A connection at
the bottom of the radiator allows for the attachment of the bottom hose to the thermostat housing.
Two smaller radiators are located in front of the cooling radiator. The lower radiator provides cooling of the gearbox
oil and the upper radiator provides cooling for the engine oil.

CLUTCH - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 33-2-7
Flywheel
The flywheel is bolted to a flange on the rear of the crankshaft with six bolts. A dowel on the crankshaft flange ensures
that the flywheel is correctly located. A ring gear is fitted on the outside diameter of the flywheel and seats against a
flange. The ring gear is an interference fit on the flywheel and is installed by heating the ring and cooling the flywheel.
The ring gear is a serviceable item and can be replaced if damaged or worn.
The operating face of the flywheel is machined to provide a smooth surface for the drive plate to engage on. Three
dowels and six threaded holes provide for the location and attachment of the pressure plate. The flywheel is balanced
to ensure that it does not produce vibration when rotating. A machined slot, with a series of holes within the slot, is
located on the engine side of the flywheel. The slot accommodates the tip of the crankshaft position sensor which is
used by the Engine Control Module (ECM) for engine management.

BRAKES
70-22 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Minimum target speed
The minimum target speed depends on which gear is engaged. Reduced minimum target speeds are employed for
some gears if rough terrain or sharp bends are encountered while already travelling at the normal minimum target
speed. If loss of traction makes it impossible to maintain the minimum target speed, the SLABS ECU temporarily
increases the minimum target speed to maintain stability, then restores the normal minimum target speed when
traction improves.
HDC minimum target speeds
Fade out
To provide a safe transition from active braking to brakes off, the SLABS ECU invokes a fade out strategy if it detects
any of the following during active braking:
lA system fault.
lThe conditions for HDC are no longer being met.
lPossible brake overheat.
The fade out strategy increases the target speed at a low constant acceleration rate, independent of actual throttle
position. This results in the braking effort being gradually reduced and then discontinued. The SLABS ECU operates
warning indications during fade out that are dependent on the cause.
Fade out warning indications
Clutch disengagement/neutral selection
During active braking, if the SLABS ECU detects the clutch is disengaged or neutral is selected, it flashes the HDC
information warning lamp and sounds the audible warning continuously to indicate that conditions for HDC are no
longer being met. Initially, the SLABS ECU also fixes the target speed to the applicable minimum target speed, but if
the condition continues for approximately 60 seconds the SLABS ECU invokes fade out.
Brake overheat prevention
To prevent the brakes overheating, the SLABS ECU monitors the amount of active braking employed and, from this,
estimates brake temperature. If the SLABS ECU estimates the brake temperature has exceeded a preset limit, it
flashes the HDC fault warning lamp and sounds the audible warning continuously, to indicate that HDC should be
deselected to allow the brakes to cool. If active braking continues and the SLABS ECU estimates that brake
temperature has increased to an unacceptable level, fade out is employed and HDC is disabled. After fade out, the
audible warning is discontinued but the HDC fault warning lamp continues to flash, while HDC is selected, until the
SLABS ECU estimates brake temperature to be at an acceptable level. This calculation continues even if the ignition
is turned off, so turning the ignition off and back on will not reduce the disabled time. When the SLABS ECU estimates
the brake temperature to be acceptable, it extinguishes the HDC fault warning lamp and illuminates the HDC
information warning lamp to indicate that HDC is re-enabled. The disabled time is dependent on vehicle speed; typical
times at constant vehicle speeds are as follows:
Gear Speed, mph (km/h)
