Peugeot is a major French car brand, part of PSA Peugeot Citroën, the second largest carmaker based in Europe.The family business that precedes the current Peugeot company was founded in 1810, and manufactured coffee mills and bicycles. On 20 November 1858, Emile Peugeot applied for the lion...

. It is an Indirect Injection (IDI) engine, that uses a version of the Ricardo Consulting Engineers Ricardo Comet prechamber cylinder head design. The engine comes in 1769cc 1.8 N/A, 1.8 Turbo, 1905cc 1.9 N/A, 1.9 Turbo, 2.1 12 valve N/A and Turbo and was the predecessor to the HDI range of engines
PSA HDi engine
The PSA Group sells a variety of diesel automobile engines with the HDi designation. Earlier versions were exclusive to Peugeot and Citroën. In 1998, PSA agreed to form a joint venture with Ford Motor Company regarding production of new diesel engines. That partnership makes identical engines...

. Early HDi Engines were a PSA design, later 16 Valve engines were jointly developed with Ford

The XUD was available with either SOHC 8 valve or 12-valve
Multi-valve
In automotive engineering a multi-valve or multivalve engine is one where each cylinder has more than two valves. A multi-valve engine has better breathing and can operate at higher revolutions per minute than a two-valve engine, delivering more power.- Multi-valve rationale :A multi-valve design...

 heads also single Cam. It was mainly applied transversally in front wheel drive vehicles, tilted by 30°. However, some applications in non-PSA vehicles had the engine installed longitudinally, with rear wheel drive.

Displacement ranged between 1769 and 2138 cc, and all XU diesel engines had a stroke of 88 mm (3.5 in) or 92 mm (3.6 in). The former was shared with the XU9. Bore sizes ranged from 80 mm (3.1 in) to 86 mm (3.4 in), some shared with other XU engines.

Upon its release the engine was noted as one of the best Diesel engine

s (for cars and light vans) in the world with its high power output and refinement it made all other diesel engines seem agricultural. However if the cooling system is neglected or improperly bled after filling - needing a raised filling level because the expansion tank is not the highest point in the system, the engine had a tendency to blow its head gasket. A simple solution is to use a plastic soft drink bottle with the bottom removed, fitted with a rubber O ring seal on the flange at the cap end for filling. Because radiators (typical life 100,000 miles), generally have only just sufficient cooling capacity when new, in order to help get the engine to operating temperature

s, (in particular the weaker Lucas CAV pump, the Bosch fuel pump is superior), preventing it acting as a lubricant and increasing the workload on distributor/rotary injection pump and damaging it. The Lucas EPIC pump fitted to the 2.1L 12 Valve TD engine after 1995 is the weakest pump of all. Different fresh vegetable oils have different viscosities: thinnest are; sunflower, rapeseed (often only labelled vegetable oil, but with pictures of distinctive yellow flowers), then soya and corn oil, but palm oil (often only marked vegetable oil) is thickest. Vegetable oils thicken when used for cooking, so used oil can be much thicker than any fresh oil. In order to reduce the viscosity of the SVO, it should be heated to engine coolant operating temperature, typically with a two tank system, in order to start and shutdown on diesel or bio-diesel. Versions of this engine from the early '90s onward, are typically fitted with a Peugeot-type coolant heated fuel filter that helps heat fuel and reduce viscosity. Fuel / engine coolant heat exchangers, usually required for straight vegetable oil conversions, are still needed for long term life expectancy, or there will be accelerated wear of the fuel injection pump. Heated vegetable oil is a good injection pump lubricant. This is especially important in cold weather ambient temperatures. Mixing with major oil company brand diesel, to thin the vegetable oil fuel, choosing a thin vegetable oil, or electric heating, or a combination of these are helpful especially when starting and warming up, as coolant heating will not yet be at operating temperature. The difference between the use of good quality fuel and supermarket diesel, in a diesel / vegetable oil fuel mix, will be very noticeable, especially at lower temperatures.

XUD7

The XUD7 had a displacement of 1.8 L (1769 cc), with a bore of 80 mm (3.1 in) and a stroke of 88 mm (3.5 in). Output was 60 PS (59 hp/44 kW) for the naturally aspirated version or 78 PS (77 hp/57 kW) for the turbocharged model. An intercooled turbocharged version was introduced later with 90 PS.
