DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-45
Ignition timing
The ignition timing is an important part of the ECM adaptive strategy. Ignition is controlled by a direct ignition system
using two four-ended coils operating on the wasted spark principle.
When the ECM triggers an ignition coil to spark, current from the coil travels to one spark plug, then jumps the gap at
the spark plug electrodes, igniting the mixture in the cylinder in the process. Current continues to travel along the earth
path (via the cylinder head) to the spark plug negative electrode at the cylinder that is on the exhaust stroke. The
current jumps across the spark plug electrodes and back to the coil completing the circuit. Since it has simultaneously
sparked in a cylinder that is on the exhaust stroke, it has not provided an ignition source there and is consequently
termed 'wasted'.
Conditions
The ECM calculates ignition timing using input from the following:
lCKP sensor.
lKnock sensors (KS).
lMAF sensor.
lTP sensor (idle only).
lECT sensor.
Function
At engine start up, the ECM sets ignition timing dependent on ECT information and starting rev/min from the CKP. As
the running characteristics of the engine change, the ignition timing changes. The ECM compares the CKP signal to
stored values in its memory, and if necessary advances or retards the spark via the ignition coils.
Ignition timing is used by the ECM for knock control.
Knock control
The ECM uses active knock control to prevent possible engine damage due to pre-ignition. This is achieved by
converting engine block noise into a suitable electrical signal that can be processed by the ECM. A major contributing
factor to engine 'knock' is fuel quality, the ECM can function satisfactorily on 91 RON fuel as well as the 95 RON fuel
that it is calibrated for.
Conditions
The ECM knock control system operates as follows:
lHot running engine.
l91 or 95 RON fuel.
Function
The ECM knock control uses two sensors located one between the centre two cylinders of each bank. The knock
sensors consist of piezo ceramic crystals that oscillate to create a voltage signal. During pre-ignition, the frequency
of crystal oscillation increases which alters the signal output to the ECM.
If the knock sensors detect pre-ignition in any of the cylinders, the ECM retards the ignition timing by 3
° for that
particular cylinder. If this action stops the engine knock, the ignition timing is restored to its previous figure in
increments of 0.75
°. If this action does not stop engine knock then the ECM retards the ignition timing a further 3° up
to a maximum of -15
° and then restores it by 0.75° and so on until the engine knock is eliminated.
The ECM also counteracts engine knock at high intake air temperatures by retarding the ignition as above. The ECM
uses the IAT signal to determine air temperature.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-63
Body control unit
On manual gearbox vehicles, the BCU provides cruise control lockout or suspend function as described under brake
pedal switch.
On vehicles with automatic gearbox, the BCU monitors the status of the brake pedal switch as well as the status of
the automatic gearbox gear selector lever. The BCU monitors the gear selector lever to determine which gearbox
position the driver has selected. If the BCU detects that the driver has selected park, reverse or neutral, it sends a
signal to the cruise control ECU which inhibits cruise operation or deactivates cruise control if it is activated.
Input/Output
If the BCU receives a brake pedal switch signal or an automatic gearbox gear selector lever position signal, the BCU
sends a HIGH signal to the cruise control ECU. The cruise control ECU cancels or inhibits cruise control functions.

FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 19-1-3
Description
General
The fuel delivery system comprises a fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, five injectors and a fuel filter. The
system is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM) which energises the fuel pump relay and controls the
operation and timing of each injector solenoid.
Unlike other Diesel engines, the Td5 engine has no injection pump. The diesel direct injection system receives fuel
at pressure from a two stage fuel pump located in the fuel tank. The system incorporates a fuel return to the fuel pump,
via a fuel cooler attached to the inlet manifold and a fuel filter. A fuel pressure regulator is located in a housing on the
rear of the cylinder head. The regulator maintains the fuel delivered to the injectors at a constant pressure and returns
excess fuel back to the fuel filter and pump via the fuel cooler.
A fuel filter is positioned on the chassis to the right of the fuel tank. The fuel feed and return to and from the engine
passes through the filter. The filter also incorporates a water sensor which illuminates a warning lamp in the
instrument pack.
A moulded fuel tank is located at the rear underside of the vehicle between the chassis longitudinals. The tank
provides the attachment for the fuel pump and fuel gauge sender unit which is located inside the tank.
Fuel tank and breather
The fuel tank and breather system is a major part of the fuel delivery system. The fuel tank and breathers are located
at the rear of the vehicle between the chassis longitudinals.
Fuel tank
The moulded fuel tank is made from High Molecular Weight (HMW) High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). The diesel
tank is manufactured using a proportion of recycled plastic.
The tank is retained in position by a metal cradle which is secured to the chassis with two nut plates and bolts at the
rear and a stud plate and two nuts at the front. A strap above the tank is bolted to the chassis and restrains the tank
from moving upwards. The fuel tank has useable capacity of approximately 95 litres (25 US Gallons).
An aperture in the top surface of the tank allows for the fitment of the fuel pump and fuel gauge sender unit which is
retained with a locking ring.
A reflective metallic covering is attached to the tank with two scrivets to shield the tank from heat generated by the
exhaust system.
The fuel filler is located in the right hand rear quarter panel, behind an access flap. The flap is opened electrically
using a switch on the fascia which operates a release solenoid.
The filler is closed by a threaded plastic cap which screws into the filler neck. The cap has a ratchet mechanism to
prevent overtightening and seals against the filler neck to prevent the escape of fuel vapour. The filler cap has a valve
which relieves fuel pressure to atmosphere at approximately 0.12 to 0.13 bar (1.8 to 2.0 lbf.in
2) and opens in the
opposite direction at approximately 0.04 bar (0.7 lbf.in2) vacuum.
A moulded filler tube, made from HMW HDPE, connects the filler to the tank via a flexible hose. The filler tube is
connected at its top end behind the filler flap.

FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 19-1-5
The fuel pump is a 'self priming', wet type, two stage pump which is immersed in fuel in the tank and operates at all
times when the ignition switch is in position II. If the engine is not started, the ECU will 'time-out' after three minutes
and de-energise the fuel pump relay. The pump receives a feed from the battery via fuse 10 in the engine
compartment fusebox and the fuel pump relay. The relay is energised by the ECM when the ignition switch is moved
to position II.
The fuel pump assembly is retained with a locking ring and sealed with a rubber seal. The locking ring requires a
special tool for removal and refitment. An access panel for the fuel pump is located in the loadspace floor below the
carpet. The access panel is sealed to the floor with a rubber seal and retained by six self-tapping screws. A four pin
electrical connector is located on the top cover and provides power feed and earth for the fuel pump and also inputs
and outputs for the fuel gauge sender operation.
The fuel gauge sender is integral with the fuel pump. The sender is submerged in the fuel and is operated by a float
which moves with the fuel level in the tank.
Fuel pump
The fuel pump assembly comprises a top cover which locates the electrical connector, fuel burning heater connection
and four fuel pipe couplings. The top cover is attached to a plastic cup shaped housing and retained on three sliding
clips. Two coil springs are located between the cover and the housing and ensure that the fuel pump remains seated
positively at the bottom of the tank when installed.
The housing locates the two stage fuel pump and also the fuel gauge sender unit. The lower part of the housing is the
swirl pot which maintains a constant level of fuel at the fuel pick-up. A coarse filter is located in the base of the housing
and prevents the ingress of contaminants into the pump and the fuel system from the fuel being drawn into the pump.
A fine filter is located in the intake to the low pressure stage to protect the pump from contaminants. Flexible pipes
connect the couplings on the top cover to the pump.
A non-return valve is located in the base of the housing. When the fuel tank is full, fuel pressure keeps the valve lifted
from its seat allowing fuel to flow into the swirl pot. As the tank level reduces, the fuel pressure in the tank reduces
causing the valve to close. When the valve is closed fuel is retained in the swirl pot, ensuring that the swirl pot remains
full and maintains a constant supply to the fuel pump.
The two stage pump comprises a high and a low pressure stage. The low pressure stage draws fuel from the swirl
pot through the filter. The low pressure stage pumps fluid at a pressure of 0.75 bar (10.9 lbf.in
2) and a flow of 30 litres/
hour (8 US Gallons/hour) to the fuel filter. A proportion of the fuel from the low pressure stage also passes, via a
restrictor, through a jet pump which keeps fuel circulating in the swirl pot. The high pressure stage draws the low
pressure fuel from the fuel filter and pressurises it to a pressure of 4.0 bar (58 lbf.in
2). The pressurised fuel is then
passed from the pump to the injectors at a flow of 180 litres/hour (47.6 US Gallons/hour). A fuel pressure regulator is
located at the rear of the engine and ensures that the delivery pressure remains at 4.0 bar (58 lbf.in
2) by controlling
the amount of fuel returning to the fuel tank.
The fuel pump has a maximum current draw of 15 Amps at 12.5 V and is protected by a 20 Amp fuse in the engine
compartment fusebox.
