• Injection Timing Control (ITC) is one of several changes to Renault's truck range announced at the Hanover Show. The electronic system appears first on the
Magnum 420ti. It will enable the ACE 12litre engine to meet the Euro-2 emissions limits.
An on-board comput er gathers information from sensors measuring engine speed, inlet air temperature, coolant temperature, turbo boost pres sure and injector speed. From the information gathered, the computer modifies the injection timing, using diverted engine oil pressure. Computer data can be downloaded for later diagnosis. The system also offers a failsafe mode. Magnum 385 and 420 models are also available with
optional Airtronie front and rear electronically controlled air suspension on 4x2 and 6x2 models. Other changes to the
Magnum include a darker grey dash and new one-piece bunk Frame and mattress. All cabs are equipped to accept Euteltrac's message and tracking systems.
