head bolts.
NOJE-
BMW special tool 11 2 250 is a thin-walled Torx El2 socket
with an extended reach. The cylinder head bolts are re-

Clean cylinder head and gasket surfaces of cylinder bloclc
and all timing chain covers.
CAUTION- Remove foreign matter and liquid from bolt holes. Trapped oil
or coolant in bolt holes can cause damage to
blocl~,
CAUJION-
Do not use a metal scraper or wire brush to clean the alumi-

en orplastic scraper. Also available are abrasive discs to be
used in conjunction with an electric drill. Be sure to use the
correct disc for the type of metal being cleaned.
Evaluate cylinder head as shown in
116 Cylinder Head and
Valvetrain.
NOTE- If the cylinder head has been machined, a special 0.3
mm
(0.01 1 in.) thicker gasket should be installed. The thicker
gasket is available from an authorized
BMW dealer and
should be marked accordingly
Cylinder head and valve specifications are covered in 116
