19. If the vehicle operator repeatedly presses and releases the SET buttonwith their foot off of the accelerator
(referred to as
lift foot set), the vehicle may accelerate and exceed the desired set speed by up to 5 mph (8km/h).
20. It may also decelerate to less than the desired set speed, before finally achieving the desired set speed.
21. The Speed Control System has an adaptive strategy that compensates forvehicle-to-vehicle variations in speed
control cable lengths.
22. When the speed control is set with the vehicles operators foot off of theaccelerator pedal, the speed control
thinks there is excessive speed control cable slack and adapts accordingly.

BLOCK-ENGINE
DESCRIPTION
The cylinder block is made of a sand-cast aluminum alloy. The cylinder block has interference-fit cast iron cylinder
liners. The cylinder liners are thermally installed during block manufacturing; they are not serviceable items.
Six iron main bearing caps use four bolts per cap; two vertical and two horizontal. A crankshaft oil scraper is
attached to the main bearing caps via extended main bearing cap bolts and nuts.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CYLINDER BORE HONING
Before honing, stuff plenty of clean shop towels under
the bores and over the crankshaft to keep abrasive
materials from entering the crankshaft area.
1. Used carefully, the Cylinder Bore Sizing Hone
C-823, equipped with 220 grit stones, is the best
tool for this job. In addition to deglazing, it will
reduce taper and out-of-round, as well as removing
light scuffing, scoring and scratches. Usually, a few
strokes will clean up a bore and maintain the
required limits.
CAUTION: DO NOT use rigid type hones to remove
cylinder wall glaze.
2. Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done if the
cylinder bore is straight and round. Use a cylinder
surfacing hone, Honing Tool C-3501, equipped with
280 grit stones (C-3501-3810). about 20-60
strokes, depending on the bore condition, will be
sufficient to provide a satisfactory surface. Using
honing oil C-3501-3880, or a light honing oil, avail-
able from major oil distributors.
CAUTION: DO NOT use engine or transmission oil, mineral spirits, or kerosene.
3. Honing should be done by moving the hone up and down fast enough to get a crosshatch pattern. The hone
marks should INTERSECT at 50° to 60° for proper seating of rings.
4. A controlled hone motor speed between 200 and 300 RPM is necessary to obtain the proper crosshatch angle.
The number of up and down strokes per minute can be regulated to get the desired 50° to 60° angle. Faster up
and down strokes increase the crosshatch angle.
5. After honing, it is necessary that the block be cleaned to remove all traces of abrasive. Use a brush to wash
parts with a solution of hot water and detergent. Dry parts thoroughly. Usea clean, white, lint-free cloth to check
that the bore is clean. Oil the bores after cleaning to prevent rusting.
CLEANING
CAUTION: Remove all gasket material from cylinder block using a plastic gasket scraper and MoparBrake
Parts Cleaner or the equivalent, this will prevent damage to the cylinder block.
1. When cleaning the cylinder block, remove the oil gallery plugs at the front and rear of the block.
2. Spray compressed air into all oil gallery passages to ensure they are clear of blockage.
3. Use a wooden or plastic scraper and MOPAR
Brake Parts Cleaner or the equivalent to remove the old gasket.
4. Clean the oil passages in the crankshaft with a brush.

1. Inspect pump mounting surfaces at pump and
mounting flange and pilot bore for nicks, cuts or
damage. Inspect O-ring surfaces for nicks, cuts or
damage.
2. Clean injection pump mounting flange and pilot
bore at gear housing. Also clean front of injection
pump.
3. Install new rubber O-ring (square) into machined
groove at pump mounting area.
4. Apply clean engine oilto injection pump O-ring
and pilot bore only.
The machined tapers on both injection pump shaft
and injection pump gear must be absolutely dry, clean and free of any dirt oroil film. This will ensure
proper gear-to-shaft tightening.
5. Clean pump gear and pump shaft at machined tapers with an evaporative type cleaner such as brake cleaner.
6. Position injection pump to mounting flange on gear housing while aligning injection pump shaft through back of
injection pump gear.
7. After pump is positioned flat to mounting flange,
install 3 pump mounting nuts (3) and tightenfinger
tight only.Do not attempt a final tightening at this
time.Do not attempt to tighten (pull) pump to
gear housing using mounting nuts. Damage to
pump or gear housing may occur. The pump
must be positioned flat to its mounting flange
before attempting to tighten 3 mounting nuts.
8. To prevent damage or cracking of components,
install and tighten nuts in the following sequence:
a. Install injection pump shaft washer and nut to
pump shaft. Tighten nutfinger tight only.
b. Do preliminary (light) tightening of injection
pump shaft nut.
c. Tighten 3 injection pump mounting nuts to 24
Nꞏm (18 ft. lbs.).
d. Do a final tightening of pump shaft nut to 105
