  1. Overview of Vehicle

  2. Engine Converts Energy stored in the fuel into mechanical energy. • Internal Combustion Engine • Piston • Camshaft • Crankshaft • Timing Belt, chain, gears • Short-Block • Valves

  3. Cooling System Takes the engine to an optimum running temperature as soon as possible and maintains it there. • Radiator • Hoses • Water pump • Water Jackets • Coolant • Thermostat • 215°F - 235°F

  4. Lubrication System Designed to reduce friction between moving parts. By reducing friction, engine temperature drops, hence lowering wear on the moving parts. • Oil • Grease • Oil Pump • Oil Pan • Oil Galleries

  5. Drive-Train • Transmits power from the engine to the drive wheels. • It varies the torque applied to the drive wheels, depending on load. • Transmission • Drive shaft • Axles • differential

  6. Drive-Train

  7. Electrical System Produces, stores, and distributes electricity for the numerous electrical devices which contributes to the operation of the total vehicle. • Stores Power - Battery • Produce Power - Alternator • Starter • Wiring Harness

  8. Fuel System • Designed to store and deliver (mystify) the fuel. • Correct Air to Fuel ratio is 14.7 : 1 (Stoichiometric Ratio) • Four common fuels: • Patrol • Diesel • Propane (LPG) • Natural Gas (Compressed Natural Gas) • Fuel Pump • Injectors • Carburetor • Fuel Tank / Lines • Fuel Filter

  9. Exhaust/Emission System Removes the Exhaust gases from the engine, Muffles the sound, Cleans and cools the burned gases before they enter the atmosphere. • Headers / Exhaust manifold • Catalytic Converter • Exhaust Pipes • Muffler • Resonator

  10. Braking System • Allows the driver to slow or stop the wheel from rotating, which • in turn will reduce the vehicle speed or stop and hold the vehicle • from moving. • Converts kinetic Energy into Heat. • Master Cylinder • Brake Fluid • Lines / Hoses • Caliper, Pads, Rotors - FRONT • Wheel cylinder, Shoes, Drums - Rear

  11. Ignition System • Provides spark for the Patrol, CNG and LPG Engines. • Converts 12 volts to 60,000 volts • Sparkplugs • Distributor • Sparkplug wires • Ignition Switch • Ignition Coil

  12. Steering System Controls the direction of the vehicle. • Steering • Rack-and-pinion • Gear Box • Power steering Pump • Steering Linkage

  13. Suspension System Keeps the wheels in firm contact with the road for maximum traction. • Shocks • Struts • Springs • Control arms • Ball Joints
