⚙️ Engine Specifications

Engine 2 3L F1A:

The F1A is a 2.3-liter, 4-cylinder common-rail turbo-diesel engine. Power output varies by tune, typically ranging from 100 to 130 PS (98 to 128 hp) and torque from 250 to 350 Nm (184 to 258 lb-ft).

Engine 3 0L F1C:

The F1C is a 3.0-liter, 4-cylinder common-rail turbo-diesel engine. Power outputs generally range from 130 to 170 PS (128 to 168 hp) with torque figures between 350 to 470 Nm (258 to 347 lb-ft). Some versions may also feature variable geometry turbochargers (VGT).

Emissions Control:

Models covered likely incorporate Euro IV and Euro V emissions standards, potentially including exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC). Later models within this range might also feature Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF).

Injection Type:

Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDI), featuring high-pressure fuel pumps, injectors controlled electronically by the Engine Control Unit (ECU).

🔧 Transmission

Transmission Types:

Primarily manual transmissions (e.g., 5-speed or 6-speed). The manual details procedures for clutch operation, gearbox repair, and synchronizer replacement.

Automated Manual:

Optional automated manual transmission (e.g., Iveco's Agile system) may be covered, including its hydraulic actuators, control module, and shifting mechanisms.

Clutch Type:

Typically single-plate dry friction clutch, with specific adjustment and replacement procedures outlined.

📐 Dimensions

Body Styles:

Available in various configurations including panel vans, chassis cabs, dropsides, tippers, and minibuses, with different wheelbase lengths and roof heights.

Gvw Range:

Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) typically ranges from 3.5 tonnes up to 7.0 tonnes, depending on the specific model variant and chassis configuration.

🛡️ Safety Features
