LOW AND HIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES Component Description



Item Description A LP fuel lines B HP fuel lines 1 Acoustic cover 2 Heat reflective and insulation sleeves The LP fuel line connects the HP fuel pumps to the fuel delivery line from the fuel tank and lines system. A quick release
connector at the start of the LP fuel line is held in a clip integrated into the LH (left-hand) ignition coils cover. P-clips secure
the LP fuel line to the rear of each cylinder head and to the RH (right-hand) side of the cylinder block. A heat reflective and
insulation sleeves are installed on the LP fuel line where it runs behind the RH exhaust manifold.
The HP fuel lines connect the HP fuel pumps to the RH fuel rail and the crossover tube. Two P-clips and a pipe clamp attach the HP fuel lines to the cylinder block and the RH cylinder head respectively. An integral bracket on the front HP fuel line is attached to a stud on the front-upper RH timing cover. An acoustic cover is installed on the bottom of the front HP fuel line.

GENERAL System Operation

The ignition coils are supplied with electrical power from the battery via a 250 A megafuse in the BJB (battery junction box)
and the ignition relay in the EJB (engine junction box). The control signal for the ignition relay is supplied by the CJB (central
junction box).

The ECM (engine control module) sends a separate signal to each ignition coil to trigger the power stage switching. The ECM calculates the dwell time from the battery voltage and engine speed, to ensure a constant energy level is produced in the
secondary coil each time the power stage is switched. This ensures sufficient spark energy is available without excessive
primary current flow, which avoids overheating and damage to the ignition coils.
The ECM calculates the ignition timing for individual cylinders from: Engine speed
Camshaft position
Engine load
Engine temperature
The knock control function
The shift control function
The idle speed control function.



IGNITION COILS Component Description



The ignition coils are installed in the cylinder head covers, under the NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) covers. Each
ignition coil locates on a spark plug and is secured to the related cylinder head cover with a single screw. Each ignition coil
incorporates a three pin electrical connector for connection to the engine harness.

Each ignition coil contains a primary and a secondary winding. The primary winding receives electrical power from the ignition
relay in the power distribution box. A power stage in the primary winding allows the ECM to interrupt the power supply, to induce a voltage in the secondary winding and thus the spark plug. A diode in the ground side of the secondary winding
reduces any undesirable switch-on voltage, to prevent misfiring into the intake manifold. The power stage limits the maximum
voltage and current in the primary winding, to protect the power stage and limit the voltage in the secondary winding. www.JagDocs.com

Description and Operation

OVERVIEW

The EEC (electronic engine control) system operates the engine to generate the output demanded by the accelerator pedal and
loads imposed by other systems. The EEC system has an ECM (engine control module) that uses a torque-based strategy to evaluate inputs from sensors and other systems, then produces outputs to engine actuators to produce the required torque.
The EEC system controls the following: Charge air
Fueling
Ignition timing
Valve timing
Cylinder knock
Noise feedback system
Idle speed
Engine cooling fan
Evaporative emissions
On-board diagnostics
Immobilization system interface
Speed control.

speed.

The CKP sensor is installed in the rear left side of the sump body, in line with the engine drive plate. The sensor is secured with a single screw and sealed with an O-ring. A two pin electrical connector provides the interface with the engine harness.

The head of the CKP sensor faces a reluctor ring pressed into the outer circumference of the engine drive plate. The reluctor ring has a 60 minus 2 tooth pattern. There are 58 teeth at 6° intervals, with two teeth removed to provide a reference point
with a centerline that is 21° BTDC (before top dead center) on cylinder 1 of bank A.
If the CKP sensor fails, the ECM:
Uses signals from the CMP sensors to determine the angular position of the crankshaft and the engine speed Adopts a limp home mode where engine speed is limited to a maximum of 3000 rev/min.

With a failed CKP sensor, engine starts will require a long crank time while the ECM determines the angular position of the crankshaft.

CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS



The CMP sensors are MRE (magneto resistive element) sensors that allow the ECM to determine the angular position of the camshafts. MRE sensors produce a digital output which allows the ECM to detect speeds down to zero. The four CMP sensors are installed in the front upper timing covers, one for each camshaft.
Each CMP sensor is secured with a single screw and sealed with an O-ring. On each CMP sensor, a three pin electrical connector provides the interface with the engine harness.
The head of each CMP sensor faces a sensor wheel attached to the front of the related VCT unit.
