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.

Oil pressure, checking
The oil pressure warning switch is located at the base of the
oil filter housing.
In 6-cylinder engines access to oil pressure warning switch
connector (arrow) is extremely restricted (intake manifold re.
moved for the purpose of illustration).
V-8 engine oil pressure warning switch (arrow) is at base of
oil filter housing on left engine compartment inner fender.
Oil pressure is tested by removing oil pressure switch and in-
stalling oil pressure gauge in its place.
Unscrew oil filter cap in order to allow engine oil to drain back
down into oil pan.
Disconnect harness connector from oil pressure switch and
remove switch.
NOJE-
Thoroughly clean around the oil pressure switch before
removing it.
Be prepared to catch leaking oil with a shop towel.
- Install pressure gauge in place of oil pressure switch,
- With gauge installed, start engine and allow to reach operat-
ing temperature. Check oil pressure. See Table b.
NOJE-
For the most accurate test results, the engine oil and filter
should be new. The oil should be the correct grade.
Table b. Engine oil pressure
At idle 0.5 bar (7 psi)
At elevated speed
6-cylinder engine 4.0 bar
(59 psi)
V-8 engine 4.5 bar (66 psi)
