FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - V8
19-2-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Fuel pressure regulator
The fuel pressure regulator is located in the underside of the top cover. The regulator is sealed with two 'O' rings and
retained with a clip.
The regulator is connected to the fuel feed pipe at the top of the pump housing and maintains the fuel pump delivery
pressure to 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in
2). When the fuel delivery pressure exceeds 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in2), the regulator opens and
relieves excess pressure back to the swirl pot via a return pipe. The regulator ensures that the fuel rails and injectors
are supplied with a constant pressure.
The fuel pump delivery pressure and pressure regulator operating pressure can be checked using a Schraeder type
valve located at the rear of the engine on the fuel rail. The valve allows the pump delivery pressure to be measured
using a suitable gauge and an adaptor and hose which are special tools.
Fuel gauge sender
The fuel gauge sender unit comprises a rotary potentiometer operated by a float. The float rises and falls with the fuel
level in the tank and moves the potentiometer accordingly.
Battery voltage is supplied to the potentiometer. The output voltage from the potentiometer varies according to the
resistance through the potentiometer in relation to the fuel level. The output voltage is connected to the fuel gauge in
the instrument pack. The fuel gauge receives a battery voltage input and this is compared with the output voltage from
the potentiometer. The difference between the two voltages determines the deflection of the fuel gauge pointer.

8Plastic housing
9Solenoid winding
An injector for each cylinder is mounted externally in the lower inlet manifold on the engine. The injector protrudes
into the inlet manifold tract, where it releases a controlled delivery of fuel into the manifold air inlet.
Each injector is sealed to the fuel rail and the inlet manifold with 'O' rings. Spring clips retain each injector to the fuel
rail and the attachment of the fuel rail clamps the injectors in the lower manifold.
The injector housing is manufactured from plastic which encapsulates a high-alloy steel housing. The steel housing
contains all components which come into contact with fuel. The plastic housing also provides the attachment for the
engine harness connector for the injector. A solenoid is located between the two housings and moves a valve needle
via an armature. The valve needle seats on a valve seat which incorporates a spray orifice plate. A filter strainer is
fitted at the connection with the fuel rail to remove any particulate matter from the fuel before it enters the injector.
When the ECM energises the solenoid, the armature moves lifting the valve needle off its seat. This allows
pressurised fuel from the fuel rail to pass through the injector housing and needle to the spray orifice. The spray orifice
controls the spray shape and fuel metering. When the solenoid is de-energised, the valve needle returns to the valve
seat, aided by a spring, closing off the injection of fuel into the inlet.
Each injector receives a battery supply voltage via a fuse in the engine compartment fusebox. The fuel delivery timing
is controlled by the ECM, which, at a precisely timed interval, provides a ground path for the injector. The completion
of the ground path operates the injector to allow fuel at pump pressure to be delivered from the fuel rail to the injector
nozzle. Each injector sprays a finely atomized spray of fuel into the inlet, where it is mixed with the intake air prior to
combustion.

Faults for each injector are stored in the ECM and can be retrieved using TestBook. Each injector can be checked
across the two connector pins. For a correctly functioning injector a resistance of between 13.8 and 15.2 ohms at a
temperature of 20
°C (65°F) should be read across the pins.

19-2-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Operation
When the ignition switch is moved to position II, the fuel pump relay in the engine compartment fusebox is energised
by the ECM. Battery voltage is supplied from the fuel pump relay to the fuel pump which operates. If engine cranking
is not detected by the ECU within a thirty second period, the ECU will 'time-out', de-energising the fuel pump relay.

+ ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - engine
management.
The fuel pump draws fuel from the swirl pot and pumps it along the fuel feed pipe to the injector fuel rail on the engine.
When the pressure in the fuel feed line reaches 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in
2) the fuel pressure regulator opens and relieves
pressure by directing fuel back into the swirl pot. The pressure regulator is constantly opening and closing to maintain
the pressure in the fuel feed pipe and the fuel rail at 3.5 bar (50 lbf.in
2).
The pressure is felt at each of the eight injectors connected to the fuel rail. The ECM controls the injection timing and
energises each injector to allow a metered amount of fuel at pump pressure to be injected into the inlet tract of the
inlet manifold. The atomised fuel from the injector is mixed with air from the inlet manifold before passing into the
cylinder.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-1-5
Description
General
The cooling system used on the Diesel engine is a pressure relief by-pass type system which allows coolant to
circulate around the engine block and heater circuit when the thermostat is closed. With coolant not passing through
the by-pass or the radiator promotes faster heater warm-up which in turn improves passenger comfort.
A coolant pump is mounted on a casting behind the PAS pump and is driven from the PAS pump at crankshaft speed
by the auxiliary drive belt. The pump mounting casting connects with passages in the cylinder block and pumps
coolant from the radiator through the cylinder block.
A viscous fan is attached to an idler pulley at the front of the engine. The fan is attached to a threaded spigot on the
pulley with a left hand threaded nut. The fan draws air through the radiator to assist in cooling when the vehicle is
stationary. The fan rotational speed is controlled relative to the running temperature of the engine by a thermostatic
valve regulated by a bi-metallic coil.
The cooling system uses a 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water.
A Fuel Burning Heater (FBH) is available as an optional item for Diesel engine variants. The FBH is located on the
bulkhead and is connected in series in the coolant supply to the heater. The FBH is used to compensate for the
relatively low coolant temperatures inherent in the Diesel engine.

+ HEATING AND VENTILATION, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Thermostat housing
A plastic thermostat housing is located behind the radiator. The housing has three connections which locate the
radiator bottom hose, top hose and coolant pump feed pipe. The housing contains a wax element thermostat and a
spring loaded by-pass flow valve.
Thermostat - Main valve
The thermostat is used to maintain the coolant at the optimum temperature for efficient combustion and to aid engine
warm-up. The thermostat is closed at temperatures below approximately 82
°C (179°F). When the coolant
temperature reaches approximately 82
°C the thermostat starts to open and is fully open at approximately 96°C
(204
°F). In this condition the full flow of coolant is directed through the radiator.
The thermostat is exposed to 90% hot coolant from the engine on one side and 10% cold coolant returning from the
radiator bottom hose on the other side.
Hot coolant from the engine passes from the by-pass pipe through four sensing holes in the flow valve into a tube
surrounding 90% of the thermostat sensitive area. Cold coolant returning from the radiator, cooled by the ambient air,
conducts through 10% of the thermostat sensitive area.
In cold ambient temperatures, the engine temperature is raised approximately 10
°C (50°F) to compensate for the heat
loss of 10% exposure to the cold coolant returning from the radiator bottom hose.
By-pass flow valve
The by-pass flow valve is held closed by a light spring. It operates to further aid heater warm-up. When the main valve
is closed and the engine speed is below 1500 rev/min, the coolant pump does not produce sufficient flow and pressure
to open the valve. In this condition the valve prevents coolant circulating through the by-pass circuit and forces the
coolant through the heater matrix only. This provides a higher flow of warm coolant through the heater matrix to
improve passenger comfort in cold conditions.
When the engine speed increases above 1500 rev/min the coolant pump produces a greater flow and pressure than
the heater circuit can take. The pressure acts on the flow valve and overcomes the valve spring pressure, opening
the valve and limiting the pressure in the heater circuit. The valve modulates to provide maximum coolant flow through
the heater matrix and yet allowing excess coolant to flow into the by-pass circuit to provide the engines cooling needs
at higher engine rev/min.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
26-1-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Outlet housing
A cast aluminium outlet housing is attached to the cylinder head with three bolts and sealed with a gasket. Coolant
leaves the engine through the outlet housing and is directed through a hose to the heater matrix, the radiator or the
by-pass circuit.
An Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is installed in a threaded port on the side of the outlet housing. The
sensor monitors coolant temperature emerging from the engine and sends signals to the Engine Control Module
(ECM) for engine management and temperature gauge operation.

+ ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
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 coolant 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 is open 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 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 in to 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 44 row radiator is located at the front of the vehicle in the engine compartment. The cross flow type radiator is
manufactured from aluminium with moulded plastic end tanks interconnected with tubes. The bottom four rows are
separate from the upper radiator and form the lower radiator for the fuel cooler. Aluminium fins are located between
the tubes and conduct heat from the hot coolant flowing through the tubes, reducing the coolant temperature as it
flows through the radiator. Air intake from the front of the vehicle when moving carries the 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 from the outlet housing and bleed
pipe to the expansion tank. Three connections at the bottom of the radiator allow for the attachment of the bottom
hose to the thermostat housing and the return hose from the oil cooler and the feed hose to the fuel cooler.
The bottom four rows of the lower radiator are dedicated to the fuel cooler. The upper of the two connections at the
bottom of the radiator receives coolant from the oil cooler. This is fed through the four rows of the lower radiator in a
dual pass and emerges at the lower connection. The dual pass lowers the coolant temperature by up to 24
°C before
being passed to the fuel cooler.
Two smaller radiators are located in front of the cooling radiator. The upper radiator is the intercooler for the air intake
system and the lower radiator provides cooling of the gearbox oil.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-1-7
Pipes and hoses
The coolant circuit comprises flexible hoses and metal formed pipes which direct the coolant into and out of the
engine, radiator and heater matrix. Plastic pipes are used for the bleed and overflow pipes to the expansion tank.
A bleed screw is installed in the radiator top hose and is used to bleed air during system filling. A drain plug to drain
the heater and cylinder block circuit of coolant is located on the underside of the coolant pump feed pipe.
Oil cooler
The oil cooler is located on the left hand side of the engine block behind the oil centrifuge and oil filter. Oil from the oil
pump is passed through a heat exchanger which is surrounded by coolant in a housing on the side of the engine.
Full water pump flow is directed along the cooler housing which also distributes the flow evenly along the block into
three core holes for cylinder cooling. This cools the engine oil before it is passed into the engine. A small percentage
of the coolant from the oil cooler passes into a metal pipe behind the engine. It then flows into the lower radiator via
a hose.
Fuel cooler
The fuel cooler is located on the right hand side of the engine and is attached to the inlet manifold. The cooler is
cylindrical in design and has a coolant feed connection at its forward end. A 'T' connection at the rear of the cooler
provides a connection for the coolant return from the heater matrix and coolant return from the fuel cooler.
The 'T' connection houses a thermostat which opens at approximately 82
°C. This prevents the cooler operating in
cold climates.
Two quick release couplings on the cooler allow for the connection of the fuel feed from the pressure regulator and
return to the fuel tank. A counter flow system is used within the cooler.
Fuel flows around a coolant jacket within the cooler and flows from the back to the front of the cooler. As the hot fuel
cools travelling slowly forwards it meets progressively colder coolant travelling in the opposite direction maintaining a
differential cooling effect.
EGR Cooler
The EGR Cooler is mounted on the front of the cylinder head. Coolant from the oil cooler flows around the EGR cooler,
cooling the exhaust gas, to improve exhaust emissions, before being returned to the expansion tank.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
26-1-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The coolant pump is attached on the left hand side of the engine, behind the PAS pump. A cast housing, bolted to the
cylinder block provides a common attachment point for both pumps. The housing has galleries which connect the
coolant pump to the cylinder block and the oil cooler housing. The coolant pump comprises a shaft, a housing and a
cover.
The shaft, which passes through the alloy housing, is supported at each end by bearings. Seals at each end of the
shaft protect the bearings from the coolant. The forward end of the shaft has two lugs which engage with the PAS
pump shaft. The opposite end of the shaft is fitted with an impeller which draws coolant from the feed pipe and
circulates it through galleries in the cylinder block. The shaft is driven by the auxiliary drive belt at the same rotational
speed as the crankshaft by a pulley attached to the PAS pump.
The pump is sealed in the cast housing with two 'O' rings. An outer cover is positioned over the pump and secured
with six bolts and sealed to the pump with an 'O' ring. The cover provides the attachment for the feed pipe connecting
hose.
