1988 BMW 3 SERIES Fuel pump wiring diagram

M20 engine
9Remove the distributor cap and HT leads,
ignition rotor and dust shield (see Chapter 1).
10Where applicable, remove the timing
sensor (see Chapter 5).
11Remove the timing belt upper cover (see
Chapter 2A).
12Loosen all three water pump mounting
bolts. Remove the top and right-hand side
bolts, but DON’T remove the lower bolt (see
illustration).
13Rotate the pump downwards, and remove
the drivebelt tensioner spring and pin.
14 Remove the final water pump bolt, and
remove the pump.
Caution: Leave the tensioner bolt
tight. Be careful to not move the
camshaft gear, as damage can
occur if the valves are moved.
M30 engine
15Remove the engine lifting bracket.
16Remove the bolts that mount the water
pump to the engine block.
17Remove the water pump, and recover the
gasket.
M40 engine
18Unscrew the mounting bolts and remove
the water pump. If the pump is tight in the
cylinder head, insert two bolts in the special
lugs at the top and bottom of the pump, and
tighten them evenly to press the pump out of
the head (see illustrations).
Refitting
19Clean the bolt threads and the threaded
holes in the engine to remove corrosion and
sealant.
20Compare the new pump to the old one, to
make sure they’re identical.
21Remove all traces of old gasket material
from the engine with a gasket scraper.
22Clean the water pump mating surfaces.
23On the M40 engine, locate a new O-ring
on the pump (see illustration).
24Locate the gasket on the pump, and offer
the pump up to the engine (see illustration).
Slip a couple of bolts through the pump
mounting holes to hold the gasket in place.
25Carefully attach the pump and gasket to
the engine, threading the bolts into the holes
finger-tight.Note:On the M20 engine, refit the
lower bolt finger-tight, then rotate the water
pump into position with the drivebelt tensioner
spring and pin in position.
26Refit the remaining bolts (if they also hold
an accessory bracket in place, be sure to
reposition the bracket at this time). Tighten
them to the torque listed in this Chapter’s
Specifications, in quarter-turn increments.
Don’t overtighten them, or the pump may be
distorted.
27Refit all parts removed for access to the
pump.
28Refill the cooling system and check the
drivebelt tension (see Chapter 1). Run the
engine and check for leaks.8 Coolant temperature sender
unit- check and renewal
2
Warning: Wait until the engine is
completely cool before beginning
this procedure.
1The coolant temperature indicator system
is composed of a temperature gauge
mounted in the instrument panel, and a
coolant temperature sender unit that’s
normally mounted on the thermostat housing
(see illustration 3.11). Some vehicles have
more than one sender unit, but only one is
used for the temperature gauge. On the M40
engine, the sender unit is mounted on the left-
hand side of the cylinder head, towards the
rear.
2If the gauge reading is suspect, first check
the coolant level in the system. Make sure the
wiring between the gauge and the sending
unit is secure, and that all fuses are intact. (If
the fuel gauge reading is suspect as well, the
problem is almost certainly in the instrument
panel or its wiring.)
3Before testing the circuit, refer to the
relevant wiring diagrams (see Chapter 12).
Where the sender unit simply earths out the
circuit, test by earthing the wire connected to
the sending unit while the ignition is on (but
without the engine running, for safety). If the
gauge now deflects to the end of the scale,
renew the sender unit. If the gauge does not
respond satisfactorily, the gauge, or the wiring
to the gauge, is faulty. Where the sender unit
has two terminals, test the circuit by checking
the resistance of the unit. No figures were
available at the time of writing, but typically
readings of several hundred or several
thousand ohms (depending on temperature)
would be expected. A reading of zero (short-
circuit) or infinity (open-circuit) would indicate
a faulty sender unit.
Caution: Do not earth the wire
for more than a second or two, or
damage to the gauge could
occur.

filtered with a flame trap like most
conventional systems. There are no
conventional PCV valves fitted on these
systems - just a hose (see illustration).
3The main components of the PCV system
are the hoses that connect the valve cover to
the throttle body or air cleaner. If abnormal
operating conditions (such as piston ring
problems) arise, the system is designed to
allow excessive amounts of blow-by gases to
flow back through the crankcase vent tube
into the intake system, to be consumed by
normal combustion. Note: Since these
models don’t use a filtering element, it’s a
good idea to check the PCV system
passageways for clogging from sludge and
combustion residue(see illustration).
6 Evaporative emissions
control (EVAP) system
2
General description
Note:This system is normally only fitted to
those vehicles equipped with a catalytic
converter.
1When the engine isn’t running, the fuel in the
fuel tank evaporates to some extent, creating
fuel vapour. The evaporative emissions control
system (see illustration)stores these fuel
vapours in a charcoal canister. When the
engine is cruising, the purge control valve is
opened slightly, and a small amount of fuel
vapour is drawn into the intake manifold and
burned. When the engine is starting cold or
idling, the purge valve prevents any vapours
from entering the intake manifold and causing
excessively-rich fuel mixture.
2Two types of purge valve are used;
electrically-operated or vacuum-operated. To
find out which type is on your vehicle, follow
the hose from the charcoal canister until you
locate the purge valve. Some are located on
the intake manifold, and others near the
charcoal canister. Look for either an electrical
connector, or vacuum lines, to the purge
valve.3A faulty EVAP system will only affect engine
driveability when the engine is warm. The
EVAP system is not usually the cause of
difficult cold starting or any other cold-running
problems.
Check
Vacuum-operated purge valve
4Remove the vacuum lines from the purge
valve, and blow into the larger valve port. It
should be closed, and not pass any air. Note:
Some models have a thermo-vacuum valve
that delays canister purging until the coolant
temperature reaches approximately 46º C.
Check this valve to make sure that vacuum is
controlled at the proper temperatures. The
valve is usually located in the intake manifold,
near the thermo-time switch and the coolant
temperature sensor.
5Disconnect the small vacuum hose from the
purge valve, and apply vacuum with a hand-
held vacuum pump. The purge valve should
be open, and air should be able to pass
through.6If the test results are unsatisfactory, renew
the purge valve.
Electrically-operated purge valve
7Disconnect any lines from the purge valve,
and (without disconnecting the electrical
connector) place it in a convenient spot for
testing.
8Check that the valve makes a “click” sound
as the ignition is switched on (see
illustration).
9If the valve does not “click”, disconnect the
valve connector, and check for power to the
valve using a test light or a voltmeter (see
illustration).
10If battery voltage is present, but the valve
does not work, renew it. If there is no voltage
present, check the Motronic control unit and
the wiring.
Canister
11Mark all the hoses for position, then
detach them from the canister.
12Slide the canister out of its mounting clip.

5.3 It’s a good idea to check for excess
residue from the crankcase vapours
circulating in the hoses and ports - this
can eventually clog the system, and cause
a pressure increase in the engine block
