Intake manifold installation is reverse of removal, noting the
following:
* Use new fuel injector seals.
Carefully
check intake manifold gasket and replace if nec-
essary.
Inspect O-ring seal between mass air flow sensor and air
filter housing. To facilitate reassembly, coat seal with
acid-
free grease.
Use new fuel injector seals.
Carefully check intake manifold gasket and replace if
necessary.

Label and disconnect fuel lines from fuel rail by pressing lock-
ing sleeves
(arrows) in to release lines.
NOTE-
BMW uses three styles of fuel line connections; a single use
clamp; a locking fitting that uses special tool
16 1 050 to re-
lease; and a quick release sleeve
(arrow) that disconnects
the line when depressed.
CAUTION-
Fuel may be expelled under pressure. Do not smoke or
work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire
exfin-
guisher handy Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a
cloth around fuel hoses to absorb
leaking fuel. Plug all
I ooen fuel lines. I
Always unscrew fuel tank cap to release pressure in
tank before
removinq fuel lines.
Cap fuel lines and fuel rail inlets.
Disconnect vacuum lines
(A, B and C) from rear of intake
manifold.
Working at rear of intake manifold, disconnect crankcase
ventilation valve from pipe by prying up on lock
(A) and slid-
ing tube forward
(B).

[Cylinder ~ead Removal and Installation
4 Remove cylinder head cover fasteners (arrows) and remove
covers from left and right cylinder heads.
4 Remove oil distribution tubes from camshaft bearing caps
from left and right cylinder heads.
4 Using crankshaft center bolt, turn crankshaft clockwise until
number one cylinder (passenger side front cylinder) is in
TDC overlap position (arrow).
NO JE -
Number one cylinder is at valve overlap when both the intake
and exhaust valves are starting to open (camshaft lobes fac-
ing down).
4 Working at right cylinder head, loosen three accessible cam-
shaft sprocltet fasteners (arrows) on both intake and exhaust
camshafts approximately
'I2 turn.
To prevent valve to piston contact when loosening camshaft
sprocket fasteners, counterhold camshaft with
27 mm open-
end wrench.
If necessary, grind outerside of wrench jaws to
prevent damaging cylinder head.

I Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
- Evaluate cylinder head as described in 116 Cylinder head
and valvetrain.
Left cylinder head, installing, M62 engine
- Clean cylinder head and block sealing surfaces of gasket
debris, making sure no debris drops into coolant or oil pas-
sages.
- Clean cylinder head bolt holes and check condition of
threads.
< Check cylinder head locator sleeves (arrows) for damage.
If the cylinder head has been machined, a special
0.3 mm
thicker gasket should be installed. The thicker gasket is avail-
able through an authorized
BMW dealer and should be
marked accordingly.
- Place new cylinder head gasket over locating sleeve on
block.
The word
"OBEN" or "TOP" (arrow) printed on the gasket,
must face up.
Set lefl side cylinder head in position on cylinder block while
pressing oil separator outward.
CAUJION-
Male sure the crankshaft, which had been rotated approxi-
mately
45" opposite the direction of engine rotation from
TDC, is still in thatposition before installing the cylinder head.
All pistons must be out of
TDCposition to prevent valvelpis-
ton contact.
- Install new cylinder head bolts and washers finger tight. Be
sure not to remove coating from new cylinder head bolts.
4 Tighten cylinder head bolts in correct sequence (1-10) to
stage
1 torque values.

27 mm open-end wrench whenever loosening or tightening
camshaft sprocket fasteners. If

4 Rotate crankshaft one complete rotation to TDC overlap.
Right (passenger's side of engine) side camshaft lobes for
number one cylinder should be in overlap position as shown
(arrows).
