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.

tions.
- Remove radiator cooling fan and fan shroud. See 170 Radi-

Remove MAF sensor:
Release clips from air filter housing
(A).
Disconnect harness connector (B).
Loosen intake boot clamp (C) and remove MAF sensor.
Note large sealing O-rings.
Installation is reverse of removal.
No adjustment to MAF sensor is possible.
Check intake hoses for cracks and vacuum leaks.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor,
testing and replacing
R
1 -4 The ECT sensor is located below cylinder 1 intake port
The ECT sensor is a dual temperature sensor. One circuit
provides coolant temperature information to the ECM while
the other circuit provides coolant temperature information to
the instrument cluster.
The ECM determines the correct ignition timing and
airlfuel
mixture required for the engine by monitoring an applied volt-
age
(5 vdc) to the sensor. The voltage drop across the sensor
varies as the coolant temperature (sensor resistance) chang-
es.
NOTE-
The ECT sensor is an NTC (negative temperature coeffi-
cient) type sensor. in other words, as the temperature rises,
resistance through the sensor decreases.
If the ETC sensor input is faulty or non-plausible, the MIL is il-
luminated when
OED II fault criteria are exceeded. The ECM
assumes asubstitute value
(80°C1 176°F) to maintainengine
operation. The ignition timing is set to a
conse~ativelsafe ba-
sic setting.
- Check ECT sensor resistance using a multimeter at sensor
terminals.
-
WARNING -
Due to risk of personal injury, be sure the engine is cold be-
fore disconnecting or reconnecting ECT sensor.

CAUTION-
Be sure ignition is OFF before disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
Remove engine coolant temperature sensor:
Unclip crankcase vent hose
(C) from cylinder head cover.
Remove plastic cover
(6) from atop intake manifold run-
ners.
Working under front of intake manifold, disconnect ECT
harness.
Unscrew ECT sensor
(C) from cylinder head.
Installation is reverse of removal:
Use new copper sealing washers when installing sensor.
Replace any engine coolant lost.

Intake air temperature ([AT) sensor,
testing and replacing
4 The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor (arrow) signal is
used by the ECM to monitor intake air temperature for fuel
and
igntion adaptation. The sensor is .ocared in rne 'ntane
man:lold behind the throttle housng.
The ECM monitors an applied voltage (5 vdc) to the sensor
The voltage drop across the sensor varies as the intake air
temperature (sensor resistance) changes.
NOJE-
The IATsensor is an NTC (negative temperature coefficient)
type sensor. In other words, as the temperature rises, resis-
tance through the sensor decreases.
If the IAT sensor input is implausible, a
fault code is set.The
MIL is illuminated when OED II fault criteria are exceeded.
The ECM then operates the engine using only the engine
coolant temperature (ECT) sensor input.
The intake air temperature sensor can be tested using a
mul-
timeter across its terminals:
/ IAT sensor resistance @ 20" C (68°F) / 2.2 - 2.7 lkCk
