94 ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION Lubricant becomes a mist in many areas of the engine as the result of the motion of the parts (e.g., rocker arms, pistons, crankshaft, camshaft and rocker shaft). The mist rides the drafts of air and other gases that circulate in the open spaces in the engine. To prevent pressure buildup, the open spaces are ducted through a pipe that opens to the atmosphere near the bottom of the engine.
ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 97 Fuel Filtration Primary and secondary filter elements attach to the underside of the filter valve housing. The housing, located at the front lower left side of the cylinder block, has an integral hand-priming pump for bleeding the system.

ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 103 When the accelerator pedal is released (and the Volvo Engine Brake switch is ON), the solenoid opens allowing some oil to escape through a small port. Reduced spring pressure moves the piston, opens the passage to the rocker shaft and increases the oil pressure.
104 ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION Exhaust Gas Recirculation System W2033359 1.EGR Valve 5. Differential Pressure Sensors 2. EGR Cooler Inlet Pipe 6. EGR Cooler Outlet Pipe 3. EGR Cooler 7. EGR Mixer 4. Venturi Nitrous oxide (NOx) emission levels increase with combustion temperature. The primary function of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system is to cool exhaust gas and send it back to the combustion chamber to lower the combustion temperature thereby to reduce NOx emissions.
ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 105 EGR Valve This engine uses the EGR valve to recirculate exhaust gases. Engine oil operates the EGR valve. The EECU determines the desirable valve opening based on inputs from a number of sensors and commands the EGR valve solenoid to open or close the valve. Corrosion occurs in the inlet manifold if exhaust gas condenses there.
106 ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION EGR Cooler Inlet Pipe W2033358 1. EGR Valve 4. EGR Cooler 2. Cooler Inlet Pipe 5. Electrical Connector 3. Clamps 6. Oil Supply Line The cooler inlet pipe conducts the exhaust from the EGR valve to the EGR cooler. The cooler lowers the exhaust stream temperature before it reenters the combustion chamber.
ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 107 EGR Cooler The EGR valve is connected to the EGR cooler by the cooler inlet pipe. Using engine coolant, the EGR cooler lowers the temperature of the gas coming from the EGR valve. The cooler contains a series of vanes that increase cooling efficiency by swirling the hot gas before it enters the mixer.
108 ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION Inlet Air Heater The optional inlet air heater mounts between the mixer and the inlet manifold. It is activated when the operator turns the key to the preheater position and the engine coolant temperature is lower than 10°C (50°F). Operating time is controlled by the EECU.
ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 109 Air Intake System Fresh air enters the intake above the back of the cab. Plastic duct work leads the air to the filter assembly mounted on the bulkhead under the hood. An impregnated paper filter prevents foreign particles from passing through. The assembly design permits the addition of a second filter if needed in extreme environments.
110 ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION Cooling System The cooling system incorporates a belt-driven coolant pump mounted on the front of the engine on the right. It also uses a piston-type thermostat housed in the front of the cylinder head and a fan with viscous or air-operated drive mounted above the crankshaft pulley.
ENGINE COMPONENT AND LOCATION 111 Thermostat This is a piston-type, full-flow thermostat with piston, bulb, seal and housing in a single assembly. Coolant flows continuously, either back to the pump, or to the radiator and back to the pump. It has lower pressure drop compared to other types.
