DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The V8i engine has cast aluminium cylinder heads
and cylinder block. The two banks of steel cylinder
liners which are pressed down to stops in the block,
are set at 90°to one another. The three ringed
aluminium pistons transmit the power through the
connecting rods to a cast iron five bearing crankshaft,
which drives the centrally located camshaft via a
duplex type chain.
The electronic ignition distributor is driven by a gear
off the front of the camshaft and the lubrication oil
pump is driven by a gear off the front of the
crankshaft. The overhead inlet and exhaust valves are
operated by rocker shafts, pushrods and self adjusting
hydraulic tappets.
Multiport fuel injection ensures that engine
performance, economy and exhaust emissions are
automatically correct for the demands of highway and
off road operation.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Lubrication system
The V8i full flow lubrication system uses a gear type oil pump which is driven from the front of the crankshaft. The
oil pump gears are housed in the front cover and the pressure relief valve, warning light switch and filter are also
fitted to the front cover.
Oil drawn through the centrally located steel gauze strainer in the sump, is pumped under pressure through oil
cooler located in the lower half of the main coolant radiator. The cooled oil then passes through the filter, before
being distributed from the main gallery via drillings, to the various components in the engine.
Lubrication to the thrust side of the cylinders is by oil grooves machined in each connecting rod big end joint face,
which are timed to align with holes in the big end journals on the power and exhaust strokes.

1. Oil to cooler
2. Oil from cooler

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Distributor and timing chain lubrication
The distributor and timing chain are lubricated from
the camshaft front bearing. The feed to the timing
chain is channelled along the camshaft sprocket, key
and spacer where it sprays onto the chain.

6. Spring
7. Outer sleeve
8. Lower chamber - high pressure
The purpose of the hydraulic tappet is to provide
maintenance free and quiet operation of the inlet and
exhaust valves. It achieves its designed purpose by
utilizing engine oil pressure to eliminate the
mechanical clearance between the rockers and the
valve stems.
During normal operation, engine oil pressure present
in the upper chamber 4, passes through the
non-return ball valve 5 and into the lower (high
pressure) chamber 8.
When the cam begins to lift the outer sleeve 7, the
resistance of the cylinder valve spring felt through the
pushrod seat 2, causes the inner sleeve 3, to move
downwards inside the outer. This slight downward
movement of the inner sleeve closes the ball valve 5
and increases the hydraulic pressure in the high
pressure chamber, sufficient to ensure that the push
rod opens the valve fully.
As the tappet assembly moves off the peak of the cam
the ball valve 5 opens to equalize the pressure in both
chambers which ensures that the valve fully closes
when the tappet is on the back of the cam.
