GENERAL

This
repair
group
covers
fuel
injection
system
component

testing
and
repair
.
Special
equipment
is
necessary
for
some

of
the
procedures
given
in
this
repair
group
.
If
you
do
not
have

the
equipment
required
to
do
the
job,
it
is
recommended
that

these
repairs
be
left
to
an
authorized
BMW
dealer
.
The
BMW

dealer
is
equipped
with
sophisticated
diagnostic
test
equip-

ment
that
is
capable
of
quicklypinpointing
hard-to-find

.

locatíon
.

The
fuel
injection
system
is
completely
electronic
in
opera-

tion
.
Air
flow
is
measured
electronically
via
a
mass
air
flow

sensor
and
additional
sensors
supply
information
about
en-

gine
operating
conditions
.
The
ECM
calculates
the
amount
of
fuel
needed
for
the
correct
air-fuel
ratio
and
actuates
the
fuel

injectors
accordingly
.
The
amount
offuel
metered
to
theen-

gine
is
determined
by
how
long
the
injectors
are
open
.

Airintake
.
Air
entering
the
engine
passes
through
a
pleat-

ed
paper
air
filter
in
the
air
cleaner
.
Intake
air
volume
or
mass

is
then
measured
bya
mass
air
flow
(MAF)
sensor
.
In
al¡
ex-

cept
the
vane
type
sensor
(DME
M1
.7),
a
reference
current
is

used
to
heat
a
thin
wireor
film
in
the
sensor
when
the
engine

is
running
.
The
current
used
to
heat
the
wire/film
is
electroni-

cally
converted
into
a
voltage
measurement
corresponding
to

the
mass
of
the
intake
air
.

WARNING
-

"
The
fuel
system
is
designed
to
retain
pressure
even
when
the
ignition
isoff
.
When
working
with
the
fuel
system,
loosen
the
fuel
lines
slowly
toal-
low
residual
fuel
pressure
to
dissipate
gradually
.
Avoid
spraying
fuel
.

"
Before
beginning
any
work
on
the
fuel
system,
place
a
tire
extinguisher
in
the
vicinity
of
the
work
area
.

"
Fuel
is
highly
flammable
.
When
working
around
fuel,
do
not
disconnect
any
wires
that
could
cause
electrical
sparks
.
Do
not
smoke
or
work
near
heaters
or
other
tire
hazards
.

"
Always
unscrew
the
fuel
tank
cap
to
release
pres-
sure
in
the
tank
before
working
on
the
tank
or
fines
.

"
Do
not
use
a
work
light
near
any
fuel
.
Fuel
may
spray
onto
the
hot
bulb
causing
a
tire
.

"
Make
sure
the
work
area
is
properly
ventifated

CAUTION-

"
Prior
to
disconnecting
the
battery,
read
the
bat-tery
disconnection
cautions
given
at
the
front
of
this
manual
onpage
viü
.

"
Before
making
any
electrical
tests
with
the
ignition
tumed
on,
disable
the
ignition
system
as
de-
scribed
in
120
Ignition
System
.
Be
sure
the
bat-tery
is
disconnected
when
replacing
components
.

"
To
prevent
damage
to
the
ignition
system
or
the
electronic
fuel
system
components,
including
the
control
unit,
aiways
connect
and
disconnect
wires
and
test
equipment
with
the
ignition
off
.

"
Cleanliness
is
essential
when
working
with
the
fuel
system
.
Thoroughly
clean
the
fuel
fine
unionsbefore
disconnecting
any
of
the
fines
.

"
Use
only
clean
tools
.
Keep
removed
parts
clean
and
sealed
or
covered
with
a
clean,
lint-free
cloth,
especially
if
completion
of
the
repair
is
delayed
.

"
Do
not
move
the
car
while
the
fuel
system
is
open
.

"
Avoid
using
high
pressure
compressed
air
to
blow
out
fines
and
componente
.
High
pressure
can
rupture
infernal
seals
and
gaskets
.

An
accurate

gauge
will
be
needed
to
make
the
tests
.

There
arethree
significant
fuel

to
bemea-

sured
:

"
System

WARNING
-

"
Gasoline

highly
flammable
and
its
vaporsare
explosive
.
Do
not
smoke
or
work
ona
car
near

or
other
fire
hazards
when
diagnosing
and
repairing
fuel
system
problems
.
Have
a
fire
extinguisher
available
in
case
of
an
emergency
.

"
When
working
onan
open
fuel
system,
wear
suit-
able
hand
protection
.
Prolonged
contact
with

can
cause
iflnesses

UTION-

Cleanliness
is
essential
when
working
withfuel
circuit
components
.
Thoroughly
clean
the
unionsbefore
disconnecting
fuel
fines

To
prevent
fuel
from
spraying
on
a
hotengine,
system
fuel

pressure
should
be
relieved
before
disconnecting
fuel
lines
.

One
method
is
to
tightly
wrap
a
shop
towel
around
a
fuel
line
fit-
ting
and
loosen
or
disconnect
the
fitting
.

Measuring
fuel
pressure
requires
special
tools
.
Earlier
cars
use
pressure
hose
with
clamps
for
fuel
delivery
.
These
can
be
attached
to
a
fuel
pressure
gauge
below
the
intake
manifold

"
If

Check
for
kinks
in

Blow
compressed

to
check
for

If
no

is

most
likely
