Air conditioning BMW 5 SERIES 1991 E34 Owner's Manual

2L-Jetronic systems are equipped with a
separate idle speed control unit (computer)
located under the facia. The idle air stabiliser
valve has an adjusting screw. Early models
are equipped with plastic valves, but they still
can be adjusted by removing the hose and
inserting a very thin screwdriver inside.
3Early Motronic systems are also equipped
with a separate idle speed control unit
(computer) located under the facia. The idle
air stabiliser valve has an adjusting screw.
4On later Motronic systems, the idle air
stabiliser valve is ECU-controlled, and no
provision is made for adjustment.
Preliminary check
5Before performing any checks on the idle
air stabiliser valve, make sure these criteria
are met:
a) The engine must be at operating
temperature (60ºC)
b) Turn off all electrical accessories (air
conditioning, heater controls, headlights,
auxiliary cooling fan, etc)
c) The throttle position sensor must be
operating correctly (see Chapter 6)
d) There must not be any exhaust leaks
e) There must not be any vacuum leaks
f) Where fitted, the oxygen sensor must be
operating properly (see Chapter 6)
6Connect a tachometer in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
Caution: The ignition must be
switched off before making any
electrical connections.
7The idle air stabiliser valve operates
continuously when the ignition is on. Start the
engine and make sure the valve is vibrating
and humming slightly.
L-Jetronic system
Check
8With the engine running, disconnect the
electrical connector from the valve. The idle
speed should increase to about 2,000 rpm.
9If the idle speed does not increase, turn the
engine off. Using an ohmmeter, check the
resistance across the terminals of the valve(see illustration). It should be 9 to 10 ohms
with the ambient air temperature at about
20º C.
10Using a pair of jumper wires, apply battery
voltage to the valve, and confirm that the
valve closes tightly. When the voltage is
removed, the valve should re-open.
11If the idle air stabiliser valve fails any of
the tests, renew it.
12If the idle air stabiliser valve passes the
tests, check the control current.
13Unplug the electrical connector from the
valve. Using a jumper wire, connect one
terminal of the electrical connector to one of
the terminals on the valve, Connect an
ammeter (0 to 1000 mA range) between the
other terminal on the electrical connector and
the remaining terminal on the valve. Start the
engine and allow it to idle. With the engine
running, the current reading should be
between 400 and 500 mA. Adjust the valve if
the current reading is not as specified (see
paragraph 15). Note: The idle air stabiliser
current will fluctuate between 400 and
1100 mA if the engine is too cold, if the
coolant temperature sensor is faulty, if the idle
speed needs to be adjusted, if there is an
engine vacuum leak or if electrical accessories
are on.
14If there is no current reading, have the idle
speed control unit diagnosed by a BMW
dealer or other specialist. Note: The idle air
stabiliser control unit (located under the facia)
can develop an electrical connector problem
that intermittently turns the valve on and off.
Check the connector very carefully before
fitting any new parts. Sometimes, a new
control unit will only fix the problem
temporarily.
Adjustment
15With the ignition switched off, connect a
tachometer in accordance with the equipment
manufacturer’s instructions.
16Make sure the ignition timing is correct
(see Chapter 5).
17Connect an ammeter to the valve (see
paragraph 13).
18With the engine running, the current
reading should be 450 to 470 mA at 850 to900 rpm (manual transmission), or 460 to
480 mA at 850 to 900 rpm (automatic
transmission).
19If the control current is not correct, turn
the adjusting screw until it is within the correct
range (see illustration). Note: On metal-type
valves, the adjusting screw is mounted
externally. On plastic-type valves, the
adjustment screw is inside, and can be
reached by removing the hose at the end of
the valve.
Motronic systems
Check
Note:There are two types of idle air stabiliser
valve on these systems; early models usually
have a two-wire valve, while later models are
equipped with a three-wire valve.
20With the engine running, disconnect the
electrical connector from the valve. The idle
speed should increase to about 2000 rpm.
21If the idle speed does not increase:
a) Two-wire valve - Using a pair of jumper
wires, apply battery voltage to the valve,
and confirm that the valve closes tightly.
When the voltage is removed, the valve
should re-open. Also, check the
resistance of the valve (see illus-
tration 21.9). The resistance should be
about 9 or 10 ohms.
b) Three-wire valve - Turn the engine off and
unplug the electrical connector from the
valve. Using an ohmmeter, check the
resistance on the two outer terminals of
the valve. (see illustration). It should be
about 40 ohms. Check the resistance on
the centre and outside terminals of the
valve. They should both be about
20 ohms.
22If the idle air stabiliser valve fails any of
the tests, renew it.
23If the idle air stabiliser valve tests are all
correct, check the control current (two-wire
valve) or the voltage (three-wire valve) as
follows.
24On two-wire valves, connect an ammeter
(0 to 1000 mA range) as described in
paragraph 13. Start the engine, and allow it to
idle. With the engine running, the current

7 Ignition timing (TCI system)-
check and adjustment
4
Warning: Keep hands, equipment
and wires well clear of the
viscous cooling fan during
adjustment of the ignition timing.
Note:This Section describes the procedure
for checking and adjusting the ignition timing
on engines fitted with the TCI system. On
engines fitted with the Motronic engine
management system, the ignition timing is
controlled by the electronic control unit, and
no adjustment is possible. The timing can be
checked using the following procedure, but no
ignition timing values were available at the
time of writing. If the timing is thought to be
incorrect, refer to a BMW dealer.
1Some special tools are required for this
procedure (see illustration). The engine must
be at normal operating temperature, and the
air conditioning (where fitted) must be
switched off. Make sure the idle speed is
correct.
2Apply the handbrake, and chock the wheels
to prevent movement of the vehicle. The
transmission must be in neutral (manual) or
Park (automatic).
3The timing marks are located on the engine
flywheel (viewed through the timing checkhole in the bellhousing) and/or on the vibration
damper on the front of the engine.
4Where applicable, disconnect the vacuum
hose from the distributor vacuum advance
unit.
5Connect a tachometer and timing light
according to the equipment manufacturer’s
instructions (an inductive pick-up timing light
is preferred). Generally, the power leads for
the timing light are attached to the battery
terminals, and the pick-up lead is attached to
the No 1 spark plug HT lead. The No 1 spark
plug is the one at the front of the engine.
Caution: If an inductive pick-up
timing light isn’t available, don’t
puncture the spark plug HT lead
to attach the timing light pick-up
lead. Instead, use an adapter between the
spark plug and HT lead. If the insulation on
the HT lead is damaged, the secondary
voltage will jump to earth at the damaged
point, and the engine will misfire.
Note:On some models, a TDC transmitter is
fitted for checking the ignition system.
However, a special BMW tester must be
connected to the diagnostic socket to use it,
so unless the special tester is available, a
conventional timing light should be used. The
ignition timing mark may be on the vibration
damper, but if not, normally the TDC mark will
be. If the timing light is of the adjustable delay
type, then the ignition timing may be
determined by zeroing the adjustment, then
turning the adjustment until the TDC marks are
aligned, and then reading off the amount of
advance from the timing light. If a standard
timing light is being used, make a mark on the
vibration damper in accordance with the
specified advance, using the following formula
to calculate the distance from the TDC mark
to the timing mark:
Distance = 2Pr x advance
360
where P = 3.142
r = radius of vibration damper
advance = specified advance
BTDC in degrees
6With the ignition off, loosen the distributor
clamp nut just enough to allow the distributor
to pivot without any slipping.7Make sure the timing light wires are routed
away from the drivebelts and fan, then start
the engine.
8Raise the engine rpm to the specified
speed, and then point the flashing timing light
at the timing marks - be very careful of moving
engine components.
9The mark on the flywheel or vibration
damper will appear stationary. If it’s aligned
with the specified point on the bellhousing or
engine front cover, the ignition timing is
correct (see illustrations).
10If the marks aren’t aligned, adjustment is
required. Turn the distributor very slowly until
the marks are aligned, taking care not to
touch the HT leads.
11Tighten the nut on the distributor clamp,
and recheck the timing.
12Switch off the engine, and remove the
timing light and tachometer. Reconnect the
vacuum hose where applicable.

Removal
1After carefully marking them for position,
remove the coil HT lead and spark plug HT
leads from the distributor cap (see Chapter 1).
2Remove No 1 spark plug (the one nearest
you when you are standing in front of the
engine).
3Manually rotate the engine to Top Dead
Centre (TDC) on the compression stroke for
