1 Maintenance
- When replacing fuel filter:
Use appropriate hose clamping device to clamp off filter
inlet and outlet hoses to lessen fuel spillage.
Loosen center clamping bracket and hose clamps on
either end of filter.
Note arrow or markings indicating direction of flow on
new filter.
Install new filter using new hose clamps
- Drain fuel filter from inlet side into a container and inspect
drained fuel.
Checlc for rust, moisture and contamination.
I - I < If fuel filter is equipped with fuel pressure regulator:
I 2 / Remove vacuum hose (1)
Pull out locking clip (2).
- Remove fuel pressure regulator (3).
Install pressure regulator in new filter.
Clean thoroughly around the filler connections before
removing them.
After assembly, check filter connections carefully for
I
I lealcs before installing cover.
NOTE- ~-
Additional informarion about the fuel filler assembly is in 160
Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump.
Fuel tank and fuel lines, inspecting
lnspectthe fuel tank, fuel lines, and fuel system fordamage or
lealts. Checlc for fuel lealts in the engine compartment or fuel
odors in the passenger compartment. Check for any evapora-
tive emissions hoses that may have become disconnected,
checking carefully at charcoal canister and evaporative emis-
sions purge system. See
130 Fuel Injection and 160 Fuel
Tankand Fuel Pump for component locations and additional
information.
WARNING-
When checlcing for fuel leal(s, the engine must be cold. A hot
exhaust manifold or exhaust system could cause the fuel to
ignite or explode causing serious personal injury Ventilate
the work area and clean up spilled fuel immediately.

I Engine Removal and Installation
WARNING -
Use extreme caution when draining and disposing of engine
coolant. Coolant is poisonous andlethal to humans andpets.
Pets are attracted to coolant because of its sweet smell and
taste. Seek medical attention immediately if coolant is ingest-
---
Working at rear of intake manifold:
Disconnect brake booster vacuum line (A).
Disconnect fuel tank vent line
(6).
Disconnect hoses (C and D) at coolant manifold
- Remove transmission harness support (E).
- Remove oil filter housing assembly from fender:
- Remove oil filter housing mounting fasteners.
Use stiff wire to secure oil filter housing to engine.
NOTE-
Do not disconnect oil lines from filter housing.
4 Disconnect supply and return fuel lines (where applicable) at
or near fuel rail. Plug open fuel lines.
NOTE-
BMW uses three styles of fuel line connections; a slngle use
clamp, a locking fitting that uses special tool
16 7 050 to re-
lease, and a
quiclc release sleeve (arrows) that disconnects
the line when depressed.
WARNING-
Fuel In fuel line is under pressure (approx. 3 - 5 bar or45 -
75 psi) and may be expelled. Do not smoke or worlc near
heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher
handy. Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a cloth
around fuel hoses to absorb any lealcing fuel. Catch and
dispose of escaped fuel. Plug all open fuel lines.
. Always unscrew the fuel tank cap to release pressure
in the tank before worlcing on the tank or lines.
< Remove air filter housing and mass air flow sensor:
Disconnect mass air flow sensor (A) and
intalte air temper-
ature sensor
(6) electrical harness connectors.
. Remove air filter housing mounting fastener (arrow).
Loosen intake hose clamp (C).

Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
- Working at side of intake manifold near left strut tower, dis-
connect intake manifold resonance valve electrical harness
connector.
4 Disconnect fuel injector electrical harness connectors from
injectors.
- Use small screwdriver to pry out wire lock clip on fuel injec-
tor
1 connector.
Repeat for remaining injectors.
Release harness conduit fasteners from injector rail.
- Disconnect intake air temperature sensor electrical har-
ness connection (between intake runners for cylinders
3
and 4).
Lift off connector assembly and lay aside.
4 Where applicable, remove schraeder valve cap (arrow) from
fuel
ra~l. Using a tire chuck, blow fuel back through feed line
using a brief burst of compressed air (maximum of
3 bar or
43.5 psi).
WARNING-
Fuel is underpressure (approx. 3 - 5 bar or 45 - 75psi) and
may be expelled. Do not smoke or
work near heaters or
other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher handy Before
d~sconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a cloth around fuel hoses
to absorb any leaking fuel. Catch and
dfspose of escaped
fuel. Plug all open fuel lines.
Always unscrew the fuel tank cap to release pressure
I in the tank before working on the tank or lines.
Disconnect manifold vacuum line (arrow)
Raise car and support in a safe manner,
CAUTION-
Make sure the car is stable and well supported at all times.
Use a professional automotive lift
orjack stands designed for
the purpose. A
floorjack is not adequate support.
Remove protective engine splash guard from below engine.

and knock control.
Intake camshaft position sensor, replacing
(M52,M52 TU
and M54 engines)
- Make certain ignition has been turned off.

Fuel injectors, checking and replacing
The fuel injectors are electronically controlled solenoid valves
that provide precisely metered and atomized fuel into the en-
gine intake ports.
The injectors receive voltage from the ECM relay. The ECM
controls the opening by activating the ground circuit
forthe in-
jector valve solenoids. The ECM varies the duration (in milli-
seconds) of "opening" time to regulate the
airlfuel ratio.
For a quick
check of the injectors, run the engine and touch
each injector with a screwdriver or stethoscope. You should
feel a vibration or hear a buzzing
Remove fuel injection harness from injectors by unclipping
locking clip at each injector. Lift harness off injectors.
CA U JIOG
Be sure ignition is OFF before disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
Use a multimeter to test injector coil resistance between in-
jector terminals.
l~uel injector coil resistance 16R at 20" C (68" F)
Disconnect negative
(-) battery cable
CAUTIOG
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery discon-
nection cautionsgiven
in 001 General Warnings and Cau-
tions.

move cover from above fuel injectors.
- Disconnect vacuum line from fuel pressure regulator.
- Remove wiring harness duct mounting fasteners.
