Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump
Fuel pump
The electric fuel pump is mounted in the fuel tank in tandem
with the right side fuel level sender. The fuel pump delivers
pressurized fuel to the fuel injection system.
A pressure regu-
lator maintains system pressure. The quantity of fuel supplied
exceeds demand, so excess fuel returns to the fuel tank via a
return line. See
130 Fuel Injection for more information.
NOTE-
Fuel pump removal procedures are given under Fuel level
sender (right side) and fuel pump, removing and install-
ing.
Fuel tank evaporative control system
Evaporative control, also referred to as running losses con-
trol, is designed to prevent fuel system evaporative losses
from venting into the atmosphere.
The components of this system allow control and monitoring
of evaporative losses by the on-board diagnostic
(OED II)
software incorporated into the engine control module (ECM).
NOTE-
1997 V-8 models (540i) with Bosch DME M5.2 are not
equipped with an
OBD I1 running losses monitoring system.
Fuel tank evaporative
control system
(models with
DME MS42.0)
4 The main components of the evaporative control system and
their functions:
Fuel overflow
tank acts as a liquidlvapor separator
Carbon canister stores evaporated fuel.
Plumbing ducts vapors from fuel tank to canister and from
canister to intake
manifold.
- Carbon canister purge valve is controlled by enginecontrol
module (ECM).
Running losses or 312-way valve (not shown) shunts ex-
cess fuel volume directly
back to fuel tank before it circu-
lates through injector fuel rail (models with Siemens MS42
or Bosch M5.2.1 engine management only).
Leak detection unit (LDP or DMTL) pressurizes fuel
tank
and evaporative system to monitor system leaks (models
with Siemens MS42 or Bosch M5.2.1 and later).
Leak detection systems vary among models and years, and
are further described in
130 Fuel Injection.
NOTE -
"3/2-way valve", 'tunning losses valve" and "fuel changeover
valve" are used interchangeably
in BMW technical literature.

Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump
Evaporative system troubleshooting
- Start by accessing diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using a
BMW or BMW compatible aftermarket scan tool.
For purposes of OBD
II emissions compliance, the DME
system sets a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) when it de-
tects a leak that is equal or larger than minimum
lealc
sensed by system.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is illuminated upon sec-
ond recurrence of fault. See OBD On-Board Diagnostics.
- When leak testing, observe following conditions to obtain
plausible results:
Fuel tank
'1, to 'I., full.
0 Vehicle parked for at least 2 hours to allow fuel to reach
room temperature.
Ideal fuel temperature is 10"- 20°C
(50"
- 68" F).
Do not refuel immediately before
lealc test.
- If a leak is detected, check the following areas:
* Fuel filter cap (leaking or off).
Fuel tank ventilation lines leaking at fuel
tank or activated
carbon canister.
i
Tank ventilation valve leaking (in engine compartment).
Fuel level
sensorlfuel pump cap leaking.
Evaporative system component replacement is covered later
in
th~s group in Fuel Tank and Fuel Lines.

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.
