CLEAN PLENUM CHAMBER VENTILATION
PASSAGEWAY - V8i
Cleaning plenum chamber ventilation passageway
can be carried out without removing plenum chamber
from ram housing.
CAUTION: Care must be taken to prevent
debris from passageway passing beyond
throttle butterfly disc.
WARNING: Safety glasses must be worn
when performing this operation. Ensure
that debris is not blown into atmosphere
which could be harmful to other persons closeby.
1.Disconnect battery negative lead.
2.Release hose clamp and remove hose from
plenum chamber inlet.
3.Remove crankcase ventilation hose from side of
plenum chamber.
4.Insert a piece of lint free cloth down throttle
butterfly bore to prevent debris passing throttle
butterfly.
5.Place a cloth over tube protruding from side of
plenum from which ventilation hose was
removed to prevent debris from passageway
being blown into atmosphere.
6.Use a compressed air line with a slim bent
nozzle to enable passageway to be cleaned out
from within throttle butterfly bore.
7.Any remaining matter can be dislodged using
soft bent wire or pipe cleaner. Finally blow out
passageway again to remove remaining debris.
8.Remove small 'T' piece between crankcase
ventilation hoses and check it is free from
blockages, clean as necessary.
9.Refit 'T' piece and hoses, tighten hose clamps
securely.

CHECK/TOP UP COOLING SYSTEM
1.To prevent corrosion of aluminium alloy engine
parts it is imperative that cooling system is filled
with a solution of water and phosphate free
anti-freeze, winter or summer. Never fill or top up
with plain water.
WARNING: Do not remove filler cap when
engine is hot because cooling system is
pressurised and personal scalding could
result.
2.When removing filler cap, turn cap slowly
anti-clockwise, pause and allow all pressure to
escape.
3.Continue to turn until cap is removed.
4.When engine is cold expansion tank coolant
should be level with top of indicator post, visible
inside tank through filler hole.
5.If necessary, top up cooling system with
premixed coolant. Use soft water whenever
possible, if local water supply is hard, rainwater
should be used.
6.When replacing filler cap it is important that it is
tightened down fully. Failure to tighten filler cap
properly may result in water loss, with possible
damage to engine
The cooling system should be drained and flushed at
2 year intervals or at onset of second winter. Refer to
Coolant Requirements.

quantity of water.
CHECK/TOP UP WASHER RESERVOIR
Top up washer reservoir to within 25 mm of filler neck.
Use a screen washer solvent/anti-freeze solution to

REPAIR DRIVE BELT INFORMATION
A single 'serpentine drive belt' drives all the
ancilliaries bar the air conditioning compressor, which
has a separate drive belt. It is essential that the belts
are fitted exactly as shown. It should also be noted
that the water pump/viscous fan is driven in a
clockwise direction.
A drive belt tensioner automatically tensions the drive
belt, eliminating the need for tensioning individual
drive belts. Turning the tensioner pulley in a clockwise
direction will release drive belt tension.
Under normal highway use the belt must be changed
at 160,000 kilometres, 96,000 miles or eight years
whichever occurs first.
The drive belt must be examined at every service and
replaced if necessary.Off road driving
Regular examination of the drive belt is essential if the
vehicle is used off road. The vehicle driver should be
requested to identify the type of mileage the vehicle
has covered.
After every off road session the owner should inspect
the belt for cuts and possible damage caused by
stones. If belt has jumped, reposition belt correctly. A
new belt must be fitted at the next service or before,
dependant on the type of damage sustained.
Fan cowl
To ensure easy access to the drive belt the top portion
of the fan cowl is detachable.
Check condition
Check condition of drive belt. Renew a belt that shows
signs of wear, splitting or oil contamination.
