Fuel pump fuse and relay
Troubleshooting of any fuel pump fault should begin with
checking the fuel pump fuse and the fuel pump relay. The
DME main relay should also be checked. The fuel pump relay
is located behind right side luggage compartment interior
panel.

- Fuse 31 in glove compartment fuse panel supplies power to
coil side of fuel pump relay. Engine control module (ECM)
supplies switched ground to relay. During starting, fuel pump
runs as long as ignition switch is in START position and con-
tinues to run once engine starts. If electrical system fault in-
terrupts power to fuel pump, engine will not run.
. .
Operating fuel pump for tests
- To operate fuel pump for testing purposes without having to
run engine, bypass fuel pump relay to power pump directly.
< To run fuel pump, open luggage compartment and release
right side trim panel.

I Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump --
Fuel pressure gauge, installing
(6-cylinder models)
4 Remove fuel rail cover by prying off trim covers (arrows) and
removing nuts.
4 If equipped, remove schraeder valve cap (arrow). Blow fuel
back through feed line using a brief burst of compressed air
(maximum
3 bar or 43.5 psi).
WARNING -
Fuel in fuel line is underpressure (approx. 3 - 5 bar or 45 -
75psi) andmay be expelled underpressure. Do not smoke
or work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire ex-
tinguisher handy Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a
cloth around fuel hoses to absorb any leaking fuel. Catch
and dispose of escaped fuel. Plug all open fuel lines.
Always unscrew the fuel tank cap to release pressure
in the tank before working on the tank or lines.
4 Attach fuel pressure gauge to BMW special tool 13 5 220
(T-fittlng) or equivalent and attach to schraeder valve.
WARNING -
The fuel pressure gauge must be securely connected to pre-
vent it from
coming loose underpressure.
CAUTION-
When using the BMWspecial tool, use care when turning the
T-handle in to open the schraeder valve. Screw the handle in
just until the schraeder valve opens. Turning the handle in too
far will damage the schraeder valve.
NOTE-
* The schraeder valve must be opened to the fuel pressure
gauge connection. Either remove the valve using a stan-
dard tire valve removal tool or use the BMW special tool
15 5 220.
* The fuel pressure gauge should have a minimum range of
0 to 5 bar (0 to 75 psi).
- For vehicles without the schraeder valve on the fuel rail, at-
tach the fuel pressure gauge in line with the fuel supply line
to the fuel rail.

Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump
4 Relieve system pressure and attach a fuel pressure gauge as
described in Fuel pressure gauge, installing (6-cylinder
models) or Fuel pressure gauge, installing
(V-8 models).
WARNING-
Fuel in fuel line is under pressure (approx. 3 - 5 bar or 45 -
75psi) and may be expelled underpressure. Do not smoke
or
worlc near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire ex-
tinguisher handy Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a
cloth around fuel hoses to absorb any
leaking fuel. Catch
and dispose of escaped fuel. Plug all open fuel lines.
Always unscrew the fuel tank cap to release pressure
in the tank before
working on the tank or lines.
- Operate fuel pump as described in Operating fuel pump for
tests. Compare fuel pressure to specifications in accompa-
nying table.
Fuel pressure specification
All E39 vehicles 3.5 +0.2 bar (50.76 i2.9 psi)
- If pressure is low, repeat test while gradually pinching off re-
turn hose to fuel tank. Pressure should rise rapidly. If not, fuel
pump is most likely faulty. If pressure rises, the fuel pressure
regulator is most
likely faulty.
- If pressure is too high, checlc return line from pressure regu-
lator to tank. Check for
ltinks in hose. If no faults can be
found, pressure regulator is most likely faulty.
CAUTION-
The fuel pump is capable of developing a higher pressure
than that regulated by the pressure regulator. In the event the
fuel pump checlc valve is faulty (stuck closed), male sure the
I fuel pressure does not rise above 6.0 bar (87psi). Damage
to the fuel lines or fuel system components could result.
- Reassemble engine, noting the following:
Remove fuel pressure gauge and fittings.
Replace schraeder valve, if removed
Replace fuel pump relay.
Replace fuel filler cap.
Residual pressure, testing
For quick restarts and to avoid vapor lock when the engine is
hot, the fuel injection system retains fuel pressure after the
engine is shut off. This residual pressure is primarily
rnain-
tained by the fuel pressure regulator and a checlc valve at the
fuel pump
outlet.

4 Relieve system pressure and attach afuel pressure gauge as
described in Fuel pressure gauge, installing (6-cylinder

. Always unscrew the fuel tank cap to release pressure
in the tank before working on the tank or lines
- Start engine allow it to run for approximately one minute.
Note fuel pressure reading.
- Observe fuel pressure reading after approximately 20 mln-
utes. The pressure should not drop more than 0.5 bar from
system pressure listed in fuel pressure specifications in ac-
companying table.
Fuel pressure specification
Ail
E39 vehicles 3.5 i-0.2 bar (50.76 i2.9 psi)
- When finished, disconnect pressure gauge and fitting, and
replace schraeder valve, if removed.
- If fuel system does not maintain pressure:
Visually check for leaks in fuel lines and unions,
Check for leaking
injector(s).
Check for faulty fuel pump check valve.
- To test fuel pump check valve:
Repeat residual pressure test.
Immediately aftershutting off engine, pinch off fuel delivery
line using a fuel hose pinch clamp (BMW
13 3 010 or
equivalent).
If pressure is now maintained, fault is most likely at fuel
pump check valve.
If pressure again drops below specifications, fault is most
likely in fuel pressure regulator.

Cooling system overview
(M52 TU shown, others similar)
Coolant pump
A centrifugal coolant pump is mounted to the front of the en-
gine. The belt-driven pump circulates coolant through the
system whenever the engine is running.
Thermostat
Two types of thermostats are used in the cars covered by this
manual. 6-cylinder models built up to
911 998 (M52 engine)
use a conventional mechanical thermostat. All
V-8 models
and 6-cylinder models from
911998 use an electrically heated
thermostat.
