COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-1-5
Description
General
The cooling system used on the Diesel engine is a pressure relief by-pass type system which allows coolant to
circulate around the engine block and heater circuit when the thermostat is closed. With coolant not passing through
the by-pass or the radiator promotes faster heater warm-up which in turn improves passenger comfort.
A coolant pump is mounted on a casting behind the PAS pump and is driven from the PAS pump at crankshaft speed
by the auxiliary drive belt. The pump mounting casting connects with passages in the cylinder block and pumps
coolant from the radiator through the cylinder block.
A viscous fan is attached to an idler pulley at the front of the engine. The fan is attached to a threaded spigot on the
pulley with a left hand threaded nut. The fan draws air through the radiator to assist in cooling when the vehicle is
stationary. The fan rotational speed is controlled relative to the running temperature of the engine by a thermostatic
valve regulated by a bi-metallic coil.
The cooling system uses a 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water.
A Fuel Burning Heater (FBH) is available as an optional item for Diesel engine variants. The FBH is located on the
bulkhead and is connected in series in the coolant supply to the heater. The FBH is used to compensate for the
relatively low coolant temperatures inherent in the Diesel engine.
+ HEATING AND VENTILATION, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Thermostat housing
A plastic thermostat housing is located behind the radiator. The housing has three connections which locate the
radiator bottom hose, top hose and coolant pump feed pipe. The housing contains a wax element thermostat and a
spring loaded by-pass flow valve.
Thermostat - Main valve
The thermostat is used to maintain the coolant at the optimum temperature for efficient combustion and to aid engine
warm-up. The thermostat is closed at temperatures below approximately 82
°C (179°F). When the coolant
temperature reaches approximately 82
°C the thermostat starts to open and is fully open at approximately 96°C
(204
°F). In this condition the full flow of coolant is directed through the radiator.
The thermostat is exposed to 90% hot coolant from the engine on one side and 10% cold coolant returning from the
radiator bottom hose on the other side.
Hot coolant from the engine passes from the by-pass pipe through four sensing holes in the flow valve into a tube
surrounding 90% of the thermostat sensitive area. Cold coolant returning from the radiator, cooled by the ambient air,
conducts through 10% of the thermostat sensitive area.
In cold ambient temperatures, the engine temperature is raised approximately 10
°C (50°F) to compensate for the heat
loss of 10% exposure to the cold coolant returning from the radiator bottom hose.
By-pass flow valve
The by-pass flow valve is held closed by a light spring. It operates to further aid heater warm-up. When the main valve
is closed and the engine speed is below 1500 rev/min, the coolant pump does not produce sufficient flow and pressure
to open the valve. In this condition the valve prevents coolant circulating through the by-pass circuit and forces the
coolant through the heater matrix only. This provides a higher flow of warm coolant through the heater matrix to
improve passenger comfort in cold conditions.
When the engine speed increases above 1500 rev/min the coolant pump produces a greater flow and pressure than
the heater circuit can take. The pressure acts on the flow valve and overcomes the valve spring pressure, opening
the valve and limiting the pressure in the heater circuit. The valve modulates to provide maximum coolant flow through
the heater matrix and yet allowing excess coolant to flow into the by-pass circuit to provide the engines cooling needs
at higher engine rev/min.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
26-1-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Outlet housing
A cast aluminium outlet housing is attached to the cylinder head with three bolts and sealed with a gasket. Coolant
leaves the engine through the outlet housing and is directed through a hose to the heater matrix, the radiator or the
by-pass circuit.
An Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is installed in a threaded port on the side of the outlet housing. The
sensor monitors coolant temperature emerging from the engine and sends signals to the Engine Control Module
(ECM) for engine management and temperature gauge operation.
+ ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Expansion tank
The expansion tank is located in the engine compartment. The tank is made from moulded plastic and attached to
brackets on the right hand inner wing. A maximum coolant when cold level is moulded onto the tank.
Excess coolant created by heat expansion is returned to the expansion tank from the radiator bleed pipe at the top of
the radiator. An outlet pipe is connected into the coolant pump feed hose and replaces the coolant displaced by heat
expansion into the system when the engine is cool.
The expansion tank is fitted with a sealed pressure cap. The cap contains a pressure relief valve which opens to allow
excessive pressure and coolant to vent through the overflow pipe. The relief valve is open at a pressure of 1.4 bar (20
lbf.in
2) and above.
Heater matrix
The heater matrix is fitted in the heater assembly inside the passenger compartment. Two pipes pass through the
bulkhead into the engine compartment and provide coolant flow to and from the matrix. The pipes from the bulkhead
are connected to the matrix, sealed with 'O' rings and clamped with circular rings.
The matrix is constructed from aluminium with two end tanks interconnected with tubes. Aluminium fins are located
between the tubes and conduct heat from the hot coolant flowing through the tubes. Air from the heater assembly is
warmed as it passes through the matrix fins. The warm air is then distributed in to the passenger compartment as
required.
+ HEATING AND VENTILATION, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
When the engine is running, coolant from the engine is constantly circulated through the heater matrix.
Radiator
The 44 row radiator is located at the front of the vehicle in the engine compartment. The cross flow type radiator is
manufactured from aluminium with moulded plastic end tanks interconnected with tubes. The bottom four rows are
separate from the upper radiator and form the lower radiator for the fuel cooler. Aluminium fins are located between
the tubes and conduct heat from the hot coolant flowing through the tubes, reducing the coolant temperature as it
flows through the radiator. Air intake from the front of the vehicle when moving carries the heat away from the fins.
When the vehicle is stationary, the viscous fan draws air through the radiator fins to prevent the engine from
overheating.
Two connections at the top of the radiator provide for the attachment of the top hose from the outlet housing and bleed
pipe to the expansion tank. Three connections at the bottom of the radiator allow for the attachment of the bottom
hose to the thermostat housing and the return hose from the oil cooler and the feed hose to the fuel cooler.
The bottom four rows of the lower radiator are dedicated to the fuel cooler. The upper of the two connections at the
bottom of the radiator receives coolant from the oil cooler. This is fed through the four rows of the lower radiator in a
dual pass and emerges at the lower connection. The dual pass lowers the coolant temperature by up to 24
°C before
being passed to the fuel cooler.
Two smaller radiators are located in front of the cooling radiator. The upper radiator is the intercooler for the air intake
system and the lower radiator provides cooling of the gearbox oil.

COOLING SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-1-7
Pipes and hoses
The coolant circuit comprises flexible hoses and metal formed pipes which direct the coolant into and out of the
engine, radiator and heater matrix. Plastic pipes are used for the bleed and overflow pipes to the expansion tank.
A bleed screw is installed in the radiator top hose and is used to bleed air during system filling. A drain plug to drain
the heater and cylinder block circuit of coolant is located on the underside of the coolant pump feed pipe.
Oil cooler
The oil cooler is located on the left hand side of the engine block behind the oil centrifuge and oil filter. Oil from the oil
pump is passed through a heat exchanger which is surrounded by coolant in a housing on the side of the engine.
Full water pump flow is directed along the cooler housing which also distributes the flow evenly along the block into
three core holes for cylinder cooling. This cools the engine oil before it is passed into the engine. A small percentage
of the coolant from the oil cooler passes into a metal pipe behind the engine. It then flows into the lower radiator via
a hose.
Fuel cooler
The fuel cooler is located on the right hand side of the engine and is attached to the inlet manifold. The cooler is
cylindrical in design and has a coolant feed connection at its forward end. A 'T' connection at the rear of the cooler
provides a connection for the coolant return from the heater matrix and coolant return from the fuel cooler.
The 'T' connection houses a thermostat which opens at approximately 82
°C. This prevents the cooler operating in
cold climates.
Two quick release couplings on the cooler allow for the connection of the fuel feed from the pressure regulator and
return to the fuel tank. A counter flow system is used within the cooler.
Fuel flows around a coolant jacket within the cooler and flows from the back to the front of the cooler. As the hot fuel
cools travelling slowly forwards it meets progressively colder coolant travelling in the opposite direction maintaining a
differential cooling effect.
EGR Cooler
The EGR Cooler is mounted on the front of the cylinder head. Coolant from the oil cooler flows around the EGR cooler,
cooling the exhaust gas, to improve exhaust emissions, before being returned to the expansion tank.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 26-1-9
Viscous fan
1Idler pulley drive attachment
2Fan blades
3Bi-metallic coil
4Body
The viscous fan provides a means of controlling the speed of the fan relative to the operating temperature of the
engine. The fan rotation draws air through the radiator, reducing engine coolant temperatures when the vehicle is
stationary or moving slowly.
The viscous fan is attached to an idler pulley at the front of the engine which is driven at crankshaft speed by the
auxiliary drive belt. The fan is secured to the pulley by a nut. The nut is positively attached to the fan spindle which
is supported on bearings in the fan body. The viscous drive comprises a circular drive plate attached to the spindle
and driven from the idler pulley. The drive plate and body have interlocking annular grooves with a small clearance
which provides the drive when silicone fluid enters the fluid chamber. A bi-metallic coil is fitted externally on the
forward face of the body. The coil is connected to and operates a valve in the body. The valve operates on a valve
plate with ports that connect the reservoir to the fluid chamber. The valve plate also has return ports which, when the
valve is closed, scoop fluid from the fluid chamber and push it into the reservoir under centrifugal force.
Silicone fluid is retained in a reservoir at the front of the body. When the engine is off and the fan is stationary, the
silicone fluid level stabilises between the reservoir and the fluid chamber. This will result in the fan operating when the
engine is started, but the drive will be removed quickly after the fan starts rotating and the fan will 'freewheel'.
At low radiator temperatures, the fan operation is not required and the bi-metallic coil keeps the valve closed,
separating the silicone fluid from the drive plate. This allows the fan to 'freewheel' reducing the load on the engine,
improving fuel consumption and reducing noise generated by the rotation of the fan.
When the radiator temperature increases, the bi-metallic coil reacts and moves the valve, allowing silicone fluid to
flow into the fluid chamber. The resistance to shear of the silicone fluid creates drag on the drive plate and provides
drive to the body and the fan blades.

26-1-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Operation
Coolant flow - Engine warm up
Refer to illustration.
+ COOLING SYSTEM - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Cooling system coolant flow.
During warm up the coolant pump moves fluid through the cylinder block and it emerges from the outlet housing. From
the outlet housing, the warm coolant flow is prevented from flowing through the upper and lower radiators because
both thermostats are closed. The coolant is directed into the heater circuit.
Some coolant from the by-pass pipe can pass through small sensing holes in the flow valve. The warm coolant enters
a tube in the thermostat housing and surrounds 90% of the thermostat sensitive area. Cold coolant returning from the
radiator bottom hose conducts through 10% of the thermostat sensitive area. In cold ambient temperatures the engine
temperature can be raised by up to 10
°C (50°F) to compensate for the heat loss of the 10% exposure to the cold
coolant return from the radiator bottom hose.
At engine speeds below 1500 rev/min, the by-pass valve is closed only allowing the small flow through the sensing
holes. As the engine speed increases above 1500 rev/min, the greater flow and pressure from pump overcomes the
light spring and opens the by-pass flow valve. The flow valve opens to meet the engine's cooling needs at higher
engine speeds and prevents excess pressure in the cooling system. With both thermostats closed, maximum flow is
directed through the heater circuit.
The heater matrix acts as a heat exchanger reducing the coolant temperature as it passes through the matrix. Coolant
emerges from the heater matrix and flows to the fuel cooler 'T' connection via the heater return hose. From the fuel
cooler the coolant is directed into the coolant pump feed pipe and recirculated around the heater circuit. In this
condition the cooling system is operating at maximum heater performance.
Coolant flow - Engine hot
As the coolant temperature increases the main thermostat opens. This allows some coolant from the outlet housing
to flow through the top hose and into the radiator to be cooled. The hot coolant flows from the left tank in the radiator,
along the tubes to the right tank. The air flowing through the fins between the tubes cools the coolant as it passes
through the radiator.
A controlled flow of the lower temperature coolant is drawn by the pump and blended with hot coolant from the by-
pass and the heater return pipes in the pump feed pipe. The pump then passes this coolant, via the cylinder block, to
the oil cooler housing, cooling the engine oil before entering the block to cool the cylinders.
When the fuel temperature increases, the heat from the fuel conducts through the fuel cooler 'T' connection and
causes the fuel thermostat to open.
Pre EU3 models: Coolant from the cylinder block flows through the oil cooler and via a pipe and hose enters the
lower radiator. The coolant in the lower radiator is subjected to an additional two passes through the lower radiator to
further reduce the coolant temperature. From the lower radiator the coolant flows , via a hose, to the fuel cooler.
As the hot fuel cools, travelling slowly forwards through the cooler, it meets the progressively colder coolant travelling
in the opposite direction from the lower radiator.
EU3 models: Coolant from the cylinder block flows through the oil cooler to the EGR cooler and then back to the
expansion tank. and via a pipe and hose enters the lower radiator. The lower temperature coolant from the oil cooler
housing is subjected to an additional two passes through the lower radiator to further reduce the coolant temperature.
From the lower radiator the coolant flows , via a hose, to the fuel cooler.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 30-1-3
Description
General
The diesel engine has the inlet manifold attached to the right hand side of the engine and the exhaust manifold
attached to the left hand side of the engine. The inlet manifold directs cooled compressed air from the turbocharger
and intercooler into the cylinders, where it is mixed with fuel from the injectors. Exhaust gases from the exhaust
manifold can also be directed into the inlet manifold via a pipe from the exhaust manifold and an Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) valve on the inlet manifold. The exhaust manifold allows combustion gases from the cylinders to
leave the engine where they are directed into the exhaust system and turbocharger.
The exhaust system is attached to the turbocharger and is directed along the underside of the vehicle to emit exhaust
gases from a tail pipe at the rear of the vehicle. A silencer is installed midway along the system and a second tail
silencer is located at the rear of the vehicle.
Inlet manifold
The inlet manifold is a one piece aluminium casting. The manifold is secured to the cylinder head with two studs and
flanged nuts and eight flanged bolts. A one piece laminated gasket seals the manifold to the cylinder head.
Four threaded bosses on the manifold provide for the attachment of the fuel cooler. The fuel cooler is secured to the
manifold with four bolts. A boss with two threaded holes allows for the attachment of the combined intake air
temperature/pressure sensor. The sensor is secured to the manifold with two screws and sealed with a gasket.
At the forward end of the manifold, a machined face and four threaded holes provide for the attachment of the EGR
valve. The valve is sealed to the manifold with a gasket.
+ EMISSION CONTROL - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Emission Control Systems.
Exhaust manifold
The exhaust manifold is made from cast iron. The manifold has five ports, one from each cylinder, which merge into
one flanged outlet connection positioned centrally on the manifold.
The manifold is attached to the cylinder head with ten studs and flanged nuts. A laminated metal gasket seals the
manifold to the cylinder head. The flanged outlet on the manifold provides the attachment for the turbocharger, which
is attached with three studs and flanged nuts and sealed with a metal laminated gasket.
A second flanged outlet, located at the forward end of the manifold, provides attachment for the EGR pipe. The EGR
pipe is secured to the manifold with two cap screws and connected to the EGR valve mounted on the inlet manifold.
There is no gasket used between the pipe and the exhaust manifold.
+ EMISSION CONTROL - Td5, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Emission Control Systems.
Exhaust system
The exhaust system comprises a front pipe, an intermediate pipe which incorporates a silencer and a tail pipe
assembly which also has a silencer. The exhaust system is constructed mainly of 63 mm (2.48 in) diameter extruded
pipe with a 1.5 mm (0.06 in) wall thickness. All pipes are aluminized to resist corrosion and the silencers are fabricated
from stainless steel sheet.
Page 625 of 1672

MANIFOLDS AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS - TD5
30-1-4 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Front pipe assembly
The front pipe is of welded and fabricated tubular construction. The front pipe is connected to a flange on the
turbocharger and secured with three flanged nuts and sealed with a metal laminated gasket. The front pipe
incorporates a flexible pipe near the connection with the turbocharger and terminates in a flanged connection with the
intermediate pipe.
The flexible pipe is formed into a concertina shape with woven metal strands around its outer diameter. The flexible
pipe allows for ease of exhaust system alignment and also absorbs engine vibration. The woven metal strands also
increase the longevity of the flexible pipe.
The front pipe is attached via a bracket and a mounting rubber to the chassis. The mounting rubber allows ease of
alignment and vibration absorption.
Intermediate pipe and silencer
The intermediate pipe is of welded and fabricated tubular construction. It connects at its forward end to the front pipe
flange. Two captive studs on the intermediate pipe flange allow for attachment to the front pipe with locknuts. The rear
section of intermediate pipe connects to the tail pipe assembly via a flanged joint, sealed with a metal gasket and
secured with locknuts and studs.
The forward and rear sections are joined by a silencer. The silencer is fabricated from stainless steel sheet to form
the body of the silencer. An end plate closes each end of the silencer and is attached to the body with seam joints.
Perforated baffle tubes, inside the silencer, are connected to the inlet and outlet pipes on each end plate. Internal
baffle plates support the baffle tubes and, together with a stainless steel fibre packing, absorb combustion noise as
the exhaust gases pass through the silencer.
The intermediate pipe is attached by two brackets, positioned at each end of the silencer, and two mounting rubbers
to the chassis. The mounting rubber allows for ease of alignment and vibration absorption.
Tail pipe assembly
The tail pipe is of welded and fabricated construction. The tail pipe connects to the intermediate pipe with a flanged
joint secured with locknuts and sealed with a metal gasket. The pipe is shaped to locate above the rear axle allowing
clearance for axle articulation. The pipe is also curved to clear the left hand side of the fuel tank which has a reflective
shield to protect the tank from heat generated from the pipe.
A fabricated silencer is located at the rear of the tail pipe. The silencer is circular in section and is constructed from
stainless steel sheet. A baffle tube is located inside the silencer and the space around the baffle tube is packed with
a stainless steel fibre. The holes in the baffle tube allow the packing to further reduce combustion noise from the
engine. The tail pipe from the silencer is curved downwards at the rear of the vehicle and directs exhaust gases
towards the ground. The curved pipe allows the exhaust gases to be dissipated by the airflow under the vehicle and
prevents the gases from being drawn behind the vehicle.
The tail pipe is attached by a bracket, positioned forward of the silencer, and a mounting rubber to the chassis. The
mounting rubber allows ease of alignment and vibration absorption.
