Cylinder Head and Valvetrain
This section covers valve removal and reconditioning, includ-
ing valve guides, seats, springs, and valve stem oil seals.
Valves, leak test
To test the valves for leakage, the cylinder head must be dis-
assembled with camshafts and camshaft carriers removed.
With valve assemblies and spark plugs installed, place the
cylinder head on a workbench with the combustion chamber
facing upward. Fill each combustion chamber with a thin non-
flammable liquid. After fifteen minutes,
check the level of the
fluid. If the fluid level in any cylinder drops, that cylinder is not
sealing properly.
Valves, removing and installing
- Remove cylinder head as described in 113 Cylinder Head
Removal and Installation.
CAUTIOI\C
(M52 TU/M54 engines only) Do not let the hydraulic lifters
fall out as the camshaft carrier is removed. Special suction
cups are available from
BMW to hold the hydraulic lifters in
place during carrier removal.
* Hydraulic cam lifters should be stored m an uprfght po-
sition. If necessary, use a magnetic tool to
aidin remov-
al of the lifters.
- Remove valves using a valve spring compressor.
CAUTIOI\C
Label each valve assembly as it is removed so it can be in-
stalled in its original position.
-
- Remove and discard valve stem oil seals from valve guides.
See Valve stem oil seals later in this section.
- Valve installation is reverse of removal. Remove carbon de- - -
posits from the valves using a wire brush or wire wheel. -
-
Valve specifications are listed in Table c. Valve specifica-
tions.

Valve stem oil seals
The purpose of the valve stem oil seal is to prevent excess oil
from entering the combustion chamber. The sign of faulty
valve stem oil seals is excessive oil consumption and smoke
from the exhaust immediately after starting and during decel-
eration.
NOTE-
Valve stem oil seals should not be reused. If valves are re-
moved, new valve stem oil seals should be installed.
Valve stem oil seal replacement requires that the cylinder
head be disassembled and the valves removed as described
above under Valves, removing and installing.
NOTE-
BMW special tools are available to remove the valve stem oil
seals. As an alternative, standard valve seal removal tools
are available from most automotive parts stores.
Lubricate new seal and install using hand pressure only. Be
sure to install valve spring
seat(s) before installing seal.

Valve seats
< The valve seats should be resurfaced whenever new valves
or valve guides are installed. Cutters are required to resur-
face the seats. Always check the valves for leaks after recon-
ditioning a valve seat as described above. Table e. Valve
seat specifications lists valve seat dimensions.

Camshaft Timing Chain
- Connect electrical harness connectors to camshaft position
sensors and VANOS solenoid valves.
- Remove BMW special locking tools from rear of cylinder
head.
- Remove cranltshaft locking tool and replace sealing plug.
Install intake camshaft baffle and cylinder head cover.
Checlc for correct seating of half-moon seals (A) in back of
cylinder head cover.

Timing chains, removing
(M62 engine to 911 998)
Camshaft timing chain removal requires that the engine oil
pan be removed.
Special
BMW service tools are needed for timing chain re-
moval and installation procedures. The special tools assure
propertiming of thevaivetrain. Precise marks to set the timing
on the camshafts are not provided for reassembly. Read the
procedures through before beginning the job.
CAUTION-
Special BMW service tools are needed for this procedure.
Read the procedure through before beginning the job. If the
camshafts are notproperly timed, the pistons can contact the
valves.
