DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CYLINDER BLOCK
The cylinders and crankcase are contained in a single cast iron construction. The cylinders are direct bored and
plateau honed with lubrication oil supplied via lubrication jets for piston and gudgeon pin lubrication and cooling. It
is not possible to rebore the cylinder block if the cylinders become worn or damaged. Three metal core plugs are
fitted to the three centre cylinders on the right hand side of the cylinder block.
Lubrication oil is distributed throughout the block via the main oil gallery to critical moving parts through channels
bored in the block which divert oil to the main and big-end bearings via oil holes machined into the crankshaft. Oil
is also supplied from the cylinder block main gallery to the five lubrication jets which cool and lubricate the piston
and gudgeon pins. Plugs are used to seal both ends of the main oil gallery at front and rear of the engine block.
An oil cooler is fitted to the LH side of the engine block; ports in the oil cooler assembly mate with ports in the
cylinder block to facilitate coolant flow. Oil is diverted through the oil cooler, centrifuge filter and full-flow filter
before supplying the main oil gallery. A tapping in the oil filter housing provides a lubrication source for the
turbocharger bearings and an oil pressure switch is included in a tapping in the oil cooler housing which
determines whether sufficient oil pressure is available to provide engine lubrication and cooling.
Cylinder cooling is achieved by water circulating through chambers in the engine block casting. A threaded coolant
jacket plug is located at the front RH side of the cylinder block.
Cast brackets are bolted to both sides of the engine block for mounting the engine to the chassis on the LH and
RH hydramount studs.
The gearbox bolts directly to the engine block; a gearbox shim plate is located between the adjoining faces of the
gearbox and the flywheel side of the engine block and is fixed to the rear of the engine block by two bolts. Two
hollow metal dowels locate the rear of the cylinder block to the shim plate. The gearbox casing provides the
mounting for the starter motor.
A port is included at the rear left hand side of the cylinder block which connects to the turbocharger oil drain pipe
to return lubrication oil to the sump. A plug sealing the lubrication cross-drilling gallery is located at the front right
hand side of the cylinder block and plugs for the main lubrication gallery are located at the front and rear of the
cylinder block. Two plastic dowels are used to locate the cylinder head to the cylinder block and must be replaced
every time the cylinder head is removed from the cylinder block.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION The engine oil cooler assembly is located on the left hand side of the engine block behind the oil centrifuge and oil
filter. The housing is bolted to the engine block by seven bolts. A matrix is included in the oil cooler housing which
acts as a heat exchanger. Coolant flow circulates through the oil cooler housing under pressure from the coolant
pump and distributes the flow evenly around the matrix fins and then along the block into three core holes for
cylinder cooling. Coolant enters the oil cooler through a pipe with a rubber hose extension at the rear side of the
engine. The coolant hose is attached to the stub pipe of the oil cooler by a spring clip.
Oil, drawn from the sump by the oil pump, passes through the oil cooler via the cylinder block. The flow of coolant
around the exterior surface of the oil cooler matrix cools a proportion of the engine oil flow as it passes through the
oil cooler.
The oil cooler is sealed to the cylinder block by a gasket which must be replaced every time the oil cooler housing
is removed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CYLINDER HEAD COMPONENTS
The cylinder head components are described below:
Cylinder head
The cylinder head is of aluminium construction. It is not possible to reface the cylinder head if it becomes worn or
damaged. An alloy camshaft carrier is bolted directly to the upper surface of the cylinder head. Two dowels are
included in the cylinder head upper face for correct location of the camshaft carrier.
The EU3 cylinder head has a single internal fuel rail for delivering fuel to the injectors and an external fuel pipe for
returning spill fuel back to the fuel connector block. Therefore, pre EU3 and EU3 cylinder heads are not
interchangeable.
CAUTION: The cylinder head incorporates drillings for the fuel injection system, any
contamination which enters these drillings could cause engine running problems or injector
failure. It is therefore, essential that absolute cleanliness is maintained when carrying out work on
the cylinder head.
The camshaft carrier and cylinder head assembly is attached to the cylinder block by twelve cylinder head
retaining bolts which pass through the camshaft carrier and the cylinder head to secure the assembly to the
cylinder block.
CAUTION: The valve heads, tips of the injectors and glow plugs protrude below the face of the
cylinder head and will be damaged if the cylinder head is stored face down.
The camshaft is located between the cylinder head and the camshaft carrier, and the bearing journals are line
bored between the two components to form a matched pair.
CAUTION: Always fit plugs to open connections to prevent contamination.
The valve guides and valve seat inserts are sintered components which are an interference fit to the cylinder
head. The cylinder head machining also provide the locations for the electronic unit injectors, glow plugs, hydraulic
lash adjusters, finger followers and low pressure fuel rail.
Cooling to the cylinder head is provided by coolant flow through a water jacket machined into the cylinder head.
Drillings through the block provide lubrication channels for pressurised oil supply to cylinder head components
such as the lash adjusters, finger followers, rocker arms and camshaft bearings.
A coolant outlet elbow is fitted to the front LH side of the cylinder head to allow flow of coolant from the cylinder
head back to the radiator. A metal gasket is used to seal the joint between the water outlet elbow and the cylinder
head. A coolant temperature sensor is located in a port in the side of the water outlet elbow for monitoring coolant
temperature.
A stub pipe is connected at the front RH side of the cylinder block above the timing cover which connects a pipe to
supply oil to the vacuum pump. The timing chain tensioner adjuster is screwed in a thread in the cylinder head at a
location on the front RH side of the engine below the oil feed port for the vacuum pump.
An access hole for the camshaft gear is included at the front of the cylinder head which is sealed with a plastic
plug and rubber’O’ring. A press-fit core plug for the chain chest is located on the front face of the cylinder head.
A press-fit core plug for the cylinder head water jacket is located at the rear of the cylinder head and a threaded
brass plug for the water jacket is located on the LH side of the cylinder head beneath the exhaust manifold
assembly.
