Operation - engine management
Fuel quantity
The ECM controls engine fuel quantity by providing sequential injection to the cylinders. Sequential injection allows
each injector to deliver fuel to the cylinders in the required firing order.
To achieve optimum fuel quantity under all driving conditions, the ECM provides an adaptive fuel strategy.
Conditions
Adaptive fuel strategy must be maintained under all throttle positions except:
lCold starting.
lHot starting.
lWide open throttle.
lAcceleration.
All of the throttle positions mentioned above are deemed to be 'open loop'. Open loop fuelling does not rely on
information from the HO
2 sensors, but the air/ fuel ratio is set directly by the ECM. During cold start conditions the
ECM uses ECT information to allow more fuel to be injected into the cylinders to facilitate cold starting. This strategy
is maintained until the HO
2 sensors are at working temperature and can pass exhaust gas information to the ECM.
Because of the specific nature of the other functions e.g. hot starting, idle, wide open throttle, and acceleration they
also require an 'open loop' strategy. For NAS vehicles with secondary air injection for cold start conditions, refer to
the Emissions section.

+ EMISSION CONTROL - V8, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Secondary air injection system.
Adaptive fuel strategy also allows for wear in the engine and components, as well as slight differences in component
signals, as no two components will give exactly the same readings.
Function
To be able to calculate the amount of fuel to be injected into each cylinder, the ECM needs to determine the amount
of air mass drawn into each cylinder. To perform this calculation, the ECM processes information from the following
sensors:
lMass air flow (MAF) sensor.
lCrank speed and position (CKP) sensor.
lEngine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor.
lThrottle position (TP) sensor.
During one engine revolution, 4 of the 8 cylinders draw in air. The ECM uses CKP sensor information to determine
that one engine revolution has taken place, and the MAF sensor information to determine how much air has been
drawn into engine. The amount of air drawn into each cylinder is therefore 1/4 of the total amount measured by the
ECM via the MAF sensor.
The ECM refers the measured air mass against a fuel quantity map in its memory and then supplies an earth path to
the relevant fuel injector for a period corresponding to the exact amount of fuel to be injected into the lower inlet
manifold. This fuel quantity is in direct relation to the air mass drawn into each cylinder to provide the optimum ratio.
During adaptive fuelling conditions, information from the heated oxygen sensors (HO
2S) is used by the ECM to correct
the fuel quantity to keep the air/ fuel ratio as close to the stoichiometric ideal as possible.

18-2-60 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SET+/RES switches
The cruise control system uses two steering wheel switches labelled SET+ and RES.
The SET+ switch performs the set speed, tap up and accelerator functions. The RES switch performs the resume and
suspend functions.
With the cruise control master switch on and the vehicle in the cruise control operating speed range, one press of the
SET+ switch stores a speed value in the cruise control ECU. If the switch is pressed and held while the vehicle is
under cruise control operation, speed increases until the switch is released. At this point the cruise control ECU stores
the new speed value. If the switch is tapped (held down for less than 0.5 second) the cruise control ECU increases
vehicle speed by 1 mph (1.5 km/h).
If the RES switch is pressed while the systems is inactive (no stored values) the system will not respond. If there is
a stored value in the cruise control ECU memory and the switch is pressed, the cruise control system operates and
holds the vehicle at the stored road speed. If the cruise control system is active and the RES switch is depressed,
the cruise control ECU deactivates cruise operation but maintains the current set speed value.
Input/Output
The input from the SET+ switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The input from the RES switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The following diagnostic information is available through TestBook:

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-61
Brake pedal switch
The cruise control ECU has two inputs from the brake pedal switch that determine the position of the brake pedal.
One input comes through the BCU and is low when the brake pedal is not pressed. The second input comes directly
from the brake pedal switch. This input is high when the brake pedal is not pressed. On vehicles with a manual
gearbox, the input from the clutch pedal switch to the cruise control ECU is connected in series with the direct signal
from the brake pedal switch.
If the cruise control ECU receives a changed signal from either source, it deactivates cruise control, removing power
to the vacuum pump and activating the vacuum control valve releasing all vacuum in the system.
The brake pedal switch also provides the signal to illuminate the brake lamps and the brake input to the SLABS ECU.
Input/Output
With the brake pedal and the clutch pedal in the rest position, the cruise control ECU receives 12 Volts.
With the brake pedal pressed, the cruise control ECU receives 0 Volts and a low voltage logic signal from the BCU.
NOTE: If the clutch pedal is pressed, 0 Volts are present at the cruise control ECU irrespective of brake pedal position.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-67
Function
The cruise control ECU activates the vacuum pump assembly to move the pneumatic actuator. This moves the
throttle to the set speed by adjusting the position of the throttle disc.
Accelerating while cruise control is active
There are three ways of increasing vehicle speed when cruise control is active:
lTemporarily increase vehicle speed (e.g. when overtaking another vehicle).
lIncrease vehicle set speed in 1 mph (1.5 km/h) increments.
lIncrease vehicle set speed.
To temporarily increase vehicle speed press the accelerator pedal until the desired speed is reached. When the
accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle coasts back to the set speed. When it reaches the set speed, cruise control
operation continues.
To increase the vehicle set speed in 1 mph (1.5 km/h) increments, tap the SET+ switch. Each tap on the switch
increases vehicle speed.
To increase the vehicle set speed, press and hold the SET+ switch until the desired set speed is reached.
The vehicle set speed will increase if the following conditions are met:
lThe vehicle is under cruise control operation.
lVehicle speed is between 28 - 125 mph (45 - 200 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual gearbox only).
lThe gearbox is not in park, reverse or neutral (automatic gearbox only).
Function
The vehicle responds as follows:
lIf the driver accelerates using the accelerator pedal, vehicle speed increases overriding pneumatic actuator
position. When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the vehicle returns to the set speed.
lIf the SET+ switch is tapped, the driver increases the stored speed and vehicle speed by 1 mph (1.5 km/h) per
tap on the switch.
lIf the driver presses and holds the SET+ switch, the vehicle speed increases until the SET+ switch is released.
This becomes the new set speed for the cruise control ECU.
Switching off cruise control
Switching off cruise control allows the driver to regain control of vehicle speed. It erases the set road speed from the
cruise control ECU memory.
To switch off cruise control, press the cruise control master switch to the off position.
Function
When the cruise control master switch is turned off, the cruise control ECU switches off power to the vacuum pump
assembly. The vacuum dump valve opens releasing the vacuum in the pneumatic actuator, returning the throttle disc
to driver control via the accelerator pedal.

19-1-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Water sensor
The water sensor has a three pin electrical connector. When the sensor detects water in the filter it illuminates a
warning lamp in the instrument pack .

+ INSTRUMENTS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
The water sensor attachment thread has a slot machined down one side. The filter can be purged of water by partially
unscrewing the sensor which aligns the slot in the threads with a corresponding hole in the sensor. When aligned,
water and fuel can flow down the slot and flows from a small cast tube on the side of the sensor. Re-tightening the
sensor misaligns the slot and stops the flow of fuel.
The water sensor receives a battery supply from the fuel pump relay in the engine compartment fusebox on one of
the electrical connector pins. The two remaining pins are connected to the instrument pack and an earth header joint.
The sensor operation uses the measurement of resistance between two electrodes submerged in the fuel and
activated by the presence of water.
When the ignition is moved to position II the warning lamp will illuminate for approximately two seconds to check
warning lamp functionality. TestBook can also illuminate the warning lamp to check its functionality.
When the filter is full with fuel and no water is present the resistance of the Diesel fuel will show a reading of 15 mA
maximum on the feed wire to the instrument pack. This current will not illuminate the water sensor warning lamp in
the instrument pack. When sufficient water surrounds both electrodes the resistance of the water will show a reading
of 130 mA maximum. This will supply sufficient voltage to the instrument pack to illuminate the warning lamp to alert
the driver to the presence of water in the fuel system.

FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 19-2-5
NAS markets: A fabricated filler tube, made from stainless steel, connects the filler to the tank via a flexible rubber
hose. The filler tube is connected at it's top end behind the filler flap.
On all vehicles that use unleaded fuel, the filler neck is fitted with an inhibitor. The inhibitor is a tapered nozzle in the
mouth of the filler neck which will only allow the use of a standard unleaded fuel filler gun. A spring loaded flap valve
prevents the incorrect fuel from being trickle filled from an incorrect filler gun.
Fuel tank breather system (all markets except NAS)
The filler tube incorporates a tank vent which allows air and fuel vapour displaced from the tank when filling to vent to
atmosphere via the filler neck. A relief valve in the vent line to the EVAP canister prevents vapour escaping through
the canister during filling. This prevents the customer overfilling the tank and maintains the correct fuel cut-off level.
The filler tube also incorporates an integral Liquid Vapour Separator (LVS). During normal driving excess fuel vapour
is passed via the vent line into the EVAP canister. To prevent the canister from being overloaded with fuel vapour,
especially in hot climates, the vapour is given the opportunity to condense in the LVS. Fuel which condenses in the
LVS flows back into the tank through the ROV's.
A breather spout within the tank controls the tank 'full' height. When fuel covers the spout it prevents fuel vapour and
air from escaping from the tank. This causes the fuel to 'back-up' in the filler tube and shuts off the filler gun. The
position of the spout ensures that when the filler gun shuts off, a vapour space of approximately 10% of the tanks total
capacity remains. This vapour space ensures that Roll Over Valves (ROV's) are always above the fuel level and the
vapour can escape and allow the tank to breathe.
The pressure relief valve fitted in the vent line to the EVAP canister prevents the customer trickle filling the tank.
Trickle filling greatly reduces the vapour space in the tank which in turn affects the tank's ability to breathe properly,
reducing engine performance and safety. When filling the tank, the pressures created are too low to open the pressure
relief valve, preventing the customer from trickle filling the tank. Vapour pressures created during driving are higher
and will open the valve allowing vapour to vent to the EVAP canister.
Four ROV's are welded onto the top surface of the tank. Each ROV is connected by a tube to the main vent line to
the EVAP canister. The ROV's allow fuel vapour to pass through them during normal vehicle operation. In the event
of the vehicle being overturned the valves shut-off, sealing the tank and preventing fuel from spilling from the vent line.
Fuel tank breather system (NAS)
The filler tube incorporates a tank vent which allows air and fuel vapour displaced from the tank when filling to vent to
atmosphere via the filler neck. A filler cap operated valve within the fuel filler neck prevents vapour escaping through
the EVAP canister during filling. This prevents the customer overfilling the tank and maintains the correct fuel cut-off
level.
The filler tube also has an 'L' shaped, stainless steel Liquid Vapour Separator (LVS). During normal driving excess
fuel vapour is passed via the vent line into the EVAP canister. To prevent the canister from being overloaded with fuel
vapour, especially in hot climates, the vapour is given the opportunity to condense in the LVS. Fuel which condenses
in the LVS flows back into the tank via the LVS vent line and through the Roll Over Valves (ROV's).
For NAS vehicles with vacuum type EVAP system leak detection capability, a small tube is located alongside the filler
tube and terminates near to the filler neck. The tube is connected to the On Board Diagnostics (OBD) pressure sensor
in the fuel pump and provides the sensor with a reading of atmospheric pressure to compare against the tank
pressure.

MANUAL GEARBOX - R380
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 37-7
Description
General
The R380 all synchromesh gearbox has five forward speeds and reverse and is mounted in line with the engine. The
clutch bell housing is bolted to the front of the gearbox and the transfer box is mounted at the rear.
Gearbox casings
Gearbox casings consist of a front cover, gearcase, centre plate and extension housing. All casings with the exception
of the front cover are located to each other by dowels and sealed. Gearbox filler/level and drain plugs are located in
the gearcase.
Reverse lamp switch
A reverse lamp switch is inserted into the extension housing. Selection of reverse gear will close the switch allowing
current from fuse 25 to flow through the switch to illuminate the reverse lamps. The switch also provides a feed to the
BCU and the automatic interior mirror - if fitted; the mirror moving to the dimming position.
Gearchange assembly
The gearchange assembly is bolted to the top of the gearcase, the upper gear lever being attached to the lower gear
lever by means of a clamp bolt. The lower gear lever ball is housed in a Railko bush inserted in the gear change
housing, the end of the lever locating in the selector yoke which is attached to the end of the selector shaft. Bias
springs provide a positive return of the gear lever to the neutral position with selection of 1st/2nd and 5th/reverse gears
being against bias spring pressure. Spring loaded detent balls fitted in the centre plate locate in grooves in the selector
shaft to provide positive gear and neutral selection.
Lubrication
Lubrication is by an oil pump located in the extension housing and driven by the layshaft with additional lubrication
being provided by splash. The pump directs oil via a filter and internal drillings in the output shaft to lubricate the
components. On non UK and non European models, provision for oil cooling is by means of a thermostat housed in
a cover bolted to the side of the extension housing. The cover incorporates tappings for connections to an oil cooler.
On UK and European models, the thermostat and cover are replaced by an oil by-pass block.
Internal pressures produced within the gearbox are vented to atmosphere via a plastic breather pipe. The pipe is
attached to the extension housing and is routed across the top of the gearcase and secured at the open end by a clip
attached to the engine cylinder block.
Selector shaft and forks
Selector forks for 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th and 5th/reverse gears are located on a single selector shaft; the 1st/2nd and 3rd/
4th selector forks are inside the main gearcase whilst the 5th/reverse selector fork is inside the extension housing.
Each of the selector forks locates inside its corresponding synchromesh hub.
Synchromesh assemblies
Each synchromesh assembly is located on the output shaft adjacent to its corresponding gears and comprises a
synchromesh ring, hub, slippers and sleeve. The hubs and slippers are retained in the sleeves by means of spring
clips. 1st/2nd and 3rd synchromesh assemblies are fitted with double synchromesh rings whilst 4th, 5th and reverse
assemblies are fitted with single rings.
