Hello,
Does the air intake manifold need to me removed to access the fuel rail and injectors on a 1991 318is with M42 engine?
Also, any advice on pitfalls?
Thx
E

The upper inlet manifold will need to come off

Thanks a lot & Happy New Year to everyone on the board! Guess I will have to wait until 2015 to get start the engine :D
