I Cylinder Head Removal and Installation
- Evaluate cylinder head as described in 116 Cylinder head
and valvetrain.
Left cylinder head, installing, M62 engine
- Clean cylinder head and block sealing surfaces of gasket
debris, making sure no debris drops into coolant or oil pas-
sages.
- Clean cylinder head bolt holes and check condition of
threads.
< Check cylinder head locator sleeves (arrows) for damage.
If the cylinder head has been machined, a special
0.3 mm
thicker gasket should be installed. The thicker gasket is avail-
able through an authorized
BMW dealer and should be
marked accordingly.
- Place new cylinder head gasket over locating sleeve on
block.
The word
"OBEN" or "TOP" (arrow) printed on the gasket,
must face up.
Set lefl side cylinder head in position on cylinder block while
pressing oil separator outward.
CAUJION-
Male sure the crankshaft, which had been rotated approxi-
mately
45" opposite the direction of engine rotation from
TDC, is still in thatposition before installing the cylinder head.
All pistons must be out of
TDCposition to prevent valvelpis-
ton contact.
- Install new cylinder head bolts and washers finger tight. Be
sure not to remove coating from new cylinder head bolts.
4 Tighten cylinder head bolts in correct sequence (1-10) to
stage

Cylinder Head and Valvetrain
< Remove oil baffle cover from above intake camshaft(s)
- Rotate engine at crankshaft vibration damper center bolt in
normal direction of rotation (clockwise) until camshaft lobe of
lifter to be tested points away from the lifter, allowing valve to
be completely closed.
Use a plastic or wooden stick to press down on top of lifter
with approximately 3.5 Nm
(2.25 ft-ib) of force.
If the lifter collapses slightly as though spring loaded, air
may be trapped in the lifter.
NOTE-
Air trapped in hydraulic lifters may result from oil foaming (air
being drawn
in by the oil pump). This may be caused by a
faulty oil pump control valve O-ring; leaking oil pump pickup
gaslcet; or by oil starvation to pump.
Press down on top of lifter for
10 to 15 seconds uslng approx-
lmately 6 to 9 Nm (4.5 to 6.75 ft-lb) of force.
If anv clearance is created between the lifter and the
cam-
shafi lobe, the check valve in the lifter is not closing. Re-
place lifter.
- To replace a hydraulic lifter, remove appropriate camshaft.
Refer to camshaft removal procedures given in Camshaft
and lifter removal and installation.
Once camshaft is removed, withdraw faulty
lifter(s) and re-
place with new
lifter(s). Inspect lifter bores for wear and scor-
ing at arrows.
- Reinstall camshafts. See Camshaft and lifter removal and
installation.

Cylinder Head and Valvetrain
4 Rotate camshafts so that intalte and exhaust lobes for cylin-
der
1 face each other (arrows).
CAUJION-
A minimum waiting time is required for the hydraulic lifters to
'bleed down"after installing the camshafts into the cylinder
head, before bringing the piston to TDC. When the camshafts
are removed, the hydraulic lifters can expand. This expan-
sion can cause increased valve lift when the camshafts are
bolted down, possibly resulting in piston interference.
Place bearing caps on cams, but do not install retaining nuts.
4 Fit BMW special tool 11 3 260 (A) and 11 3 270 (B) to cylinder
head over
intalte camshaft and screw long bolts (arrows)
into spark plug threads.
CA UTION-
Do not overtighten bolts into spark plug holes.
< Turn eccentric shaft of special tool to pretension bearing
caps. Install and torque nuts on intake camshaft bearing
caps.

- Release tension on eccentric shaft and remove BMW special

- Repeat procedure for exhaust camshaft.
NOTE-
Observe waiting time for lifter bleed down before continuing
with camshaff installation.
