Adjusting CO value without catalytic converter
L
Note:
Engine must be at operating temperature (85 °C).
The basic settings (ignition, valve clearance) must
be correct.
• Insert test probe (arrow) approx. 30 cm into the
silencer.
e
Caution:
Do not take this measurement in an enclosed
space; risk of asphyxiation.
L
Note:
If unsuitable air extraction equipment is used, it may
falsify the reading.
• Run the engine at idle speed.
e
Caution:
Adjusting screw (2) has no limit stop in both direc-
tions.
• Turn adjusting screw (2) to vary the CO value.
L
Note:
Turn in direction (1) for a richer mixture; the CO value
will rise towards its maximum value. Turning further
in direction (1) will not vary the CO value any further.
Turn in direction (3) for a leaner mixture; the CO val-
ue will drop to a minimum. Turning further in direc-
tion (3) causes the engine’s emergency-run
programme to operate and has no influence on the
CO value.
e
Caution:
If the engine’s emergency-run programme comes
into operation, fault 1111 will be memorised by the
engine control unit.
• If necessary, perform fault diagnosis, rectify the
fault and cancel the memory entry.
• Using the BMW synchrotester, adjust idle speed
at the recirculating-air screws.
