Engine - Static description
The S8000 is a 4 cylinder turbo charged and after cool diesel engine.
It features a cross flow cylinder head, with the inlet and exhaust manifolds on opposite sides of the cylinder head.
The fuel and air combustion process, takes place in the specially designed bowel in the crown of the pistons.
Cylinder head assembly
The cylinder head incorporates valves and springs, with the valve rocker arm shaft assembly bolted to the cylinder
block through the cylinder head.
Cylinder head retaining bolts are evenly spaced with a six-point pattern around each cylinder, this ensures an even
clamping load across the cylinder head.
The intake and exhaust manifolds are bolted to the head, the intake manifold is mounted on the right side of the
engine, with the diesel injectors mounted outside the rocker cover.
The exhaust manifold is mounted on the left side of the engine.
Water outlet connections and thermostat being attached to the front of the cylinder block directly behind the radiator
valve guides are inserted into the cylinder head, and replaceable.
Special replaceable cast alloy valve seats are pressed into each valve port during manufacturing.
No oversize valve seats on guides are available. All valves are fitted with positive value rotators, valve clearance is
maintained by adjustment of the self locking adjusting screw, mounted in each of the rocker arms.
Camshaft assembly
The camshaft runs in 3 replaceable bushes.
The camshaft drive gear is in mesh with and driven by the camshaft idler gear which is driven by the crankshaft timing
gear.
Camshaft end thrust is controlled by a thrust plate bolted to the block, and located between the camshaft gear and
the front camshaft journal.
Cylinder block assembly
The cylinder block is an alloy cast iron with deep cylinder skirts & water jackets for cooling the cylinders.
The cylinder bores are machined integral with the cylinder block, during the manufacturing process.
Cylinders are in line, vertical and numbered 1 to 4 from radiator to the engine rear.
The oil sump, which is attached to the bottom of the cylinder block, is the reservoir for the engine oil lubrication system.
A cast iron engine front cover and front plate is attached to the front of the engine and covers all of the timing gear
assembly.
Crankshaft assembly
The crankshaft is supported in the cylinder block by 5 main bearings in
76 Hp
/
86 Hp
engines.
The crankshaft is manufactured from steel with machined finished crank webs. End thrust is controlled by a thrust
bearing incorporated in the center main bearing of the crankshaft.
Connecting rods
Connecting rods “wedge” shaped at the small end has been designed to reduce the reciprocating weight at the piston
end.
