Release injector locking clips at each injector and pry injector
wiring duct up off injectors.
Clamp off fuel supply line and fuel return line at end of fuel
rail. Disconnect fuel supply fuel return lines from fuel rail.
WARNING -
Clamp off the fuel lines and then wrap a clean shop towel
around the lines before removing them. Residual
fuelpres-
sure is present in the lines.
Fuel is discharged. Do not disconnect any wires that
could cause electrical
sparks. Do not smoke or work
near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep an approved
I fire extinguisher handy. I
- Remove fuel rail mounting fasteners
- Pull up on fuel rail and remove individual injectors by remov-
ing injector retaining clip and pulling injector from rail.
- Installation is reverse of removal. Fit new O-rings when in-
stalling injectors. For ease of installation, lightly lubricate in-
jector O-ring with
SAE9O gear lube.

Evaporative emissions, overview
On E39 MS 41 .I cars, the evaporative emissions system is
combined with the tank ventilation system. The evaporative
system is monitored by the ECM for correct purge operation
and leak detection.
The carbon (purge) canister is purged using engine vacuum
via the
purgevalve.The purgevalve (located nextto the mass
airflow sensor) is ECM controlled and regulates the purge
flow into the intake manifold. The valve is powered open and
closed by an internal spring.
If the evaporative emission valve circuit is faulty, a fault code
is set and the MIL is illuminated when OBD
II fault criteria are
exceeded. If the valve is mechanically faulty, poor driveability
may result and a mixture adaptation fault is stored in the
ECM.
The leak diagnosis pump (LDP) is activated by the ECM and
pressurizes the fuel tank and evaporative system as apart of
theOED I1 leakdetection monitor. If the LDP orthe LDP circuit
is defective, afault code is set and the MIL is illuminated when
OBD
I1 fault criteria are exceeded. The LDP is mounted the
left rear wheel well behind the fender liner.

4 Working underneath car, pinch off supply and return fuel hos-
es (arrows), then disconnect hoses from rigid metal lines.
- Remove right rear wheel and wheel housing splash shield.
4 Worlting at right rear wheel housing, loosen hose clamp
(arrow) and disconnect filler pipe from tank.
- Support tank from below. Remove tank strap mounting bolts.
Lower and remove tank, disconnecting right side vent and
other
hoses/electrical connectors as necessary.
Always use new seals, gaskets, O-rings, and hose clamps.
lnspect hoses and replace any that are chafed,
dr~ed out or
cracked.
lnspect heat shield and replace if corroded.
Inspect rubber buffers and
hers on fuel tank, support
straps and on underside of body. Replace rubber parts that
are hardened or damaged.
- After finishing repairs but before starting engine, fill fuel tank
with at least
5 liters (1.5 gallons) of fuel.
CAUTlOI+
The fuelpump will be damaged if run without fuel.
* If the filler neck has been removed from the body, be
sure to reattach the
neck grounding screw (where ap-
plicable). Check electrical resistance between the
ground tab and wheel
hub. The resistance should be
no
hiaher than 0.6f2

Running losses (312-way) valve,
removing and installing
The running losses (312-way) valve is located under the car
beneath the driver's seat, just ahead of the fuel filter. A protec-
tive covershieldsfuel system components from road hazards
and dirt.
The engine control module
(ECM) controls the operation of
the 312-way valve (pulse-width modulated). On engine start
up, the valve solenoid is energized for 20 seconds in order to
supply full fuel volume to the fuel rail.
After20 seconds, the
solenoid is deactivated and sprung closed (the bypass is
opened). This reduces the amount of fuel circulating through
the fuel rail and diverts the excess to return to the fuel tank
through the fuel pressure regulator.
The fuel injectors are supplied with pressurized fuel, but ex-
cess fuel is diverted to the fuel tank without first passing
through the fuel rail. This prevents the excess fuel from ab-
sorbing heat in the engine compartment, thus lowering the
temperature and amount of vaporization in the fuel tank.
