MANIFOLDS AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 30-2-7
Tail pipe assembly
The tail pipe is of welded and fabricated construction. It connects to the intermediate pipe with a flanged joint secured
with studs and locknuts and sealed with a metal gasket. The pipe is shaped to locate above the rear axle allowing
clearance for axle articulation. The pipe is also curved to clear the left hand side of the fuel tank which has a reflective
shield to protect the tank from heat generated from the pipe.
A fabricated silencer is located at the rear of the tail pipe. The silencer is circular in section and is constructed from
stainless steel sheet. A baffle tube is located inside the silencer and the space around the baffle tube is packed with
a stainless steel fibre. The holes in the baffle tube allow the packing to further reduce combustion noise from the
engine. The tail pipe from the silencer is curved downwards at the rear of the vehicle and directs exhaust gases
towards the ground. The curved pipe allows the exhaust gases to be dissipated by the airflow under the vehicle and
prevents gases being drawn behind the vehicle.
The tail pipe is attached by a bracket, positioned forward of the silencer, and a mounting rubber to the chassis. The
mounting rubber allows ease of alignment and vibration absorption.

Operation
Hydraulic operation
Refer to illustration.
+ CLUTCH - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Hydraulic operation.
When the clutch pedal is depressed, the master cylinder piston is pushed into the master cylinder. The movement of
the piston pressurises the fluid in the master cylinder, forcing the pressurised fluid into the hydraulic feed pipe to the
slave cylinder. The hydraulic pressure is felt at the slave cylinder piston which moves under the hydraulic force
applied, pushing the clutch release lever via the piston rod.
When the clutch pedal is released, the force applied to the release lever by the fingers of the diaphragm, moves the
release lever, which pushes the slave cylinder piston into the cylinder. The displaced hydraulic fluid is pushed up the
hydraulic feed pipe and returns to the master cylinder.
Mechanism operation
When the clutch pedal is depressed, hydraulic pressure extends the piston and rod in the slave cylinder. The
extension of the piston pushes the rod against the outer end of the release lever which pivots around the ball spigot.
The inner end of the release lever pivots towards the engine applying pressure to the release bearing. The release
bearing slides along the release bearing sleeve and pushes on the fingers of the diaphragm. The diaphragm pivots
around the chamfered rivets in the cover. As the diaphragm is deflected, it removes pressure from the pressure plate.
The pressure plate moves away from the drive plate assisted by the three leaf springs.
The removal of force from the pressure plate on the drive plate reduces the friction between the dual mass flywheel,
drive plate and pressure plate. The drive plate slips between the flywheel and the pressure plate preventing rotary
movement being transferred from the flywheel and pressure plate to the primary driveshaft.
When the clutch pedal is released, hydraulic force is removed from the piston in the slave cylinder. This allows the
fingers of the diaphragm to push the release bearing along the release bearing sleeve. The movement of the release
bearing moves the release lever which pivots on the ball spigot, pushing the piston and rod back into the slave
cylinder.
The removal of pressure from the release bearing on the diaphragm, causes the diaphragm to pivot around the
chamfered rivets in the cover. The force applied to the pressure plate from the diaphragm overcomes the force of the
leaf springs and the pressure plate moves towards the drive plate and flywheel.
The pressure plate applies pressure to the drive plate which is pushed against the flywheel. As the clutch pedal is
progressively released, the friction between the drive plate, flywheel and pressure plate increases. The increase in
friction transfers the rotary movement of the flywheel and pressure plate to the drive plate, which in turn starts to rotate
the primary drive shaft. When the clutch pedal is released fully, the force applied by the diaphragm to the pressure
plate forces the drive plate onto the flywheel with no slippage.
