Engine System - General Information - Cylinder Head Distortion
General Procedures

Check Published: 17-Jun-2014

1. Using a suitable metallic straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the
cylinder head face in the areas illustrated. Note the maximum value.





2. CAUTION: Machine the minimum thickness of material from the cylinder
head to meet specification. If a selection of cylinder head gaskets are
available, increase the thickness of the cylinder head gasket by one
size.

General Procedures

Check

CAUTION: Before disconnecting or removing components, make sure the area around the joint faces and connections are
clean. Plug open connections to prevent contamination.
NOTES:


Removal steps in this procedure may contain installation details.


Some variation in the illustrations may occur, but the essential information is always correct.


The vehicle battery must be in good condition and fully charged before carrying out this procedure.

1. Refer to: Ignition Coil-On-Plug - V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol (303-07B Engine Ignition - V8 5.0L Petrol/V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol, Removal and Installation).


2. CAUTION: Make sure the fuel injection system is
disabled before carrying out a cylinder compression test.
Failure to follow this step may result in damage to the
vehicle.
Repeat procedure for the other side.















3. Crank engine for approximately five seconds to remove any remaining
fuel in the cylinders. www.JagDocs.com

across the spool valve, through the advance and retard check valves and into the advance and retard chambers. During the
start cycle, the ECM signals the VCT solenoid to move the spool valve into the sleeve and connect the lock pin to inlet oil

Operating Temperature Range -40 to 160 °C (-40 to 320 °F) Oil Level Check

For additional information, refer to Engine Oil Draining and Filling (303-01A, General Procedures).

For accuracy, oil level checks should be performed with the vehicle on level ground when the oil is hot. The vehicle needs to
stand for approximately 10 minutes, after the engine is switched off, to allow the oil to drain back into the sump pan and the
oil level to stabilize. The oil level system will not give a reading until the oil level has stabilized.

With the ignition on, the engine stopped and the transmission in P (park), repeatedly press the trip button on the end of the
LH multifunction switch until the oil level icon and applicable message are displayed in the fuel gage/trip computer area of the message center, as shown below:



Item Description A Oil level is between 50% and 100% of recommended level. No top-up required. B Oil level is between 12.5% and 50% percent of recommended level. Add 0.5 liter (0.53 US quart) of oil. C Oil level is between 0% and 12.5% of recommended level. Add 1 liter (1.06 US quarts) of oil. D Oil level is above maximum for safe operation. Reduce oil level to recommended level. E Oil level is below minimum for safe operation. Add 1.5 liters (1.59 US quarts) of oil, then recheck level. F Oil level is stabilizing. Wait 10 minutes and then recheck level. If this display is accompanied by the message ENGINE OIL LEVEL MONITOR SYSTEM FAULT, a fault with the oil level monitoring system is indicated. System Fault Warning

If there is a fault with the system, in addition to being displayed during an oil level check, the message ENGINE OIL LEVEL
MONITOR SYSTEM FAULT will be temporarily displayed when the ignition is first switched on.

Refer to: Specifications (303-01D Engine - V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol, Specifications).
Clean any residual engine oil from the oil filler cap area.

7. CAUTION: Make sure that the vehicle has been left for 5 minutes
from filling with oil.

Follow the Steps 9-13 before starting the engine.

8.
Start the engine and allow to run for 10 minutes, stop the
engine.
Check for leaks.

9. CAUTIONS:


Make sure that the selector lever and the gearshift mechanism are

The message center display will revert to the normal
display in the trip computer.
Scroll through the trip menu to access the engine oil
level display.
Check that the oil level display shows an oil level
reading.
Only after having started and run the engine for 10
minutes (as indicated in Step 8), switch off the
engine, then stabilizing for 10 minutes, take a
reading from the oil level display and, if necessary
top up with engine oil.





















13. NOTE: If instructed to follow Steps 9-13 in a previous step, return
to Step 8 and continue the procedure.
Turn the ignition off.

14. Allow 10 minutes for the engine oil level to stabilize if there has been
additional oil top up.

oil level value.
Turn the ignition on.
