Evaporative system  pressure leak 
diagnosis, overview 
The  M62 TU engine is  equipped wlth an evaporative  fuel sys- 
tem pressure leak diagnosis system.  The main component  of 
this system is  the leakdiagnosis  pump (LDP). The function of 
the LDP  is to  pressurize the fuel  tank and the evaporative 
emission system  for the purpose of detecting leaks. 
This  system  iscapable  of detecting a 
lealcas small  as0.5  mm. 
The  LDP, located  in the  left rear wheel housing, contains  the 
following: 
Vacuum chamber. Pneumatic  pump chamber 
DME  activated vacuum  solenoid 
Reed  switch (provides switched voltage 
feedback signal  to 
DME). 
The  vacuum supply  line is in the  wiring harness from  the en- 
gine compartment  and runs  down the  driver's side of the  vehi- 
cle. 
The canister  vent valve  is 
~ntegrated into the LDP, which IS 
electrically controlled  by the  ECM.  The canister vent valve is 
opened to provide fresh air entry into  the fuel system only dur- 
ing  purge operation. 
- Purge operation characteristics: 
Off idle through full throttle:  purge  valve opened by  pulse 
width  modulated (PWM)  control of the  ECM.  PWM duty  cy- 
cle varies by engine operating conditions 
(e.g. warm  idle, 
purge  valve opened  slightly; cold 
idleldecel with engine 
temp 
< 67" C. purge  valve always closed).

Fuel Injection 
Secondary air injection,  overview 
The secondary air  system pumps  ambient air into  the exhaust 
stream  afteracoid  engine start  to reduce  the warm-up  time of 
the  catalytic converters  and to reduces  HC and CO emis- 
sions.  The ME 
7.2 ECM controls  and monitors  the secondary 
air  injection system.  The secondary air pump operates  at a 
starttemperature  of between 10°C 
(50°F) and 40°C  (104°F). 
and  continues  to operate for  a maximum of 
2 minutes  at idle 
speed. 
The  electric air pump draws  in ambient air  and supplies  it to 
the 
checlc valve.  The vacuum  vent valve (solenoid) switches 
vacuum to  open the 
checlc valve when activated by  the ECM. 
Once  opened,  the checlc 
valve allows air  to be  pumped into 
the  exhaust stream. 
4 The  secondary  air injection system consists  of the  following 
components: 
1. Secondary  air pump  relay 
2. Oxygen  sensors 
3. Catalytic converters 
4.  Electric air pump 
5. Non-return  valve 
6. Vacuum vent valve

This repair group covers service information specifically for the fuel supply  system. Information on the fuel injection  sys- 
tem  is covered  in 
130 Fuel Injection. 
In  the  descriptions  and procedures given below,  engine and 
engine management (DME) systems are referred to  by man- 
ufacturer  code. If necessary,  see 
100 Engine-General  for 
model year, engine code,  and DME applications.

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 
4 Relieve  system pressure  and attach  a fuel pressure  gauge as 
described in  Fuel pressure  gauge, installing  (6-cylinder 
models)  or Fuel  pressure  gauge, installing 
(V-8 models). 
WARNING- 
Fuel in fuel line  is under pressure  (approx. 3 - 5 bar  or 45 - 
75psi) and  may  be expelled underpressure. Do  not smoke 
or 
worlc near heaters  or other fire  hazards. Keep a fire  ex- 
tinguisher  handy Before disconnecting  fuel hoses,  wrap a 
cloth around fuel hoses  to absorb  any 
leaking 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 
working on the  tank  or lines. 
- Operate fuel pump  as described  in Operating  fuel pump for 
tests.  Compare fuel pressure to specifications in  accompa- 
nying  table. 
Fuel  pressure  specification 
All E39 vehicles 3.5 +0.2 bar (50.76 i2.9 psi) 
- If pressure is  low, repeat test while  gradually pinching  off re- 
turn hose to fuel tank. Pressure should rise  rapidly. If not,  fuel 
pump is most  likely faulty. If  pressure rises, the fuel pressure 
regulator is  most 
likely faulty. 
- If pressure is too  high, checlc return line from pressure  regu- 
lator  to tank.  Check for 
ltinks in hose.  If  no faults  can be 
found,  pressure regulator is  most likely  faulty. 
CAUTION- 
The fuel pump  is capable  of developing  a higher pressure 
than  that regulated  by the  pressure  regulator.  In the  event the 
fuel pump  checlc valve is faulty  (stuck closed),  male sure the 
I fuel pressure  does not rise  above 6.0 bar (87psi). Damage 
to  the  fuel  lines  or fuel system  components  could result. 
- Reassemble  engine, noting the  following: 
Remove  fuel pressure gauge  and fittings. 
Replace schraeder  valve, if removed 
Replace fuel pump  relay. 
Replace fuel filler  cap. 
Residual pressure,  testing 
For quick restarts and  to avoid vapor lock when the engine is 
hot, the fuel injection system  retains fuel pressure  after the 
engine is shut  off. This residual pressure is  primarily 
rnain- 
tained by the fuel pressure regulator and  a checlc  valve at the 
fuel  pump 
outlet.
