Oil sparybar mod on m30 engine.

[Rav335uk]

Only asking if any boys with the m30b35 have heard that rocker 1 doesn't get enough oil thus wearing into the cam.Is this true and have any of you found this to be a problem???

Got he link to modifying the spraybar if you need it rav. Somewhere.

[Rav335uk]

Good man gooner1, have you done this mod, and is it easy????????

[gooner1]

Never got round to doing it, long, boring and oft repeated story.
Will dig the link out.

Replace the spray bar if you can as it might be gunked/blocked up, not very expensive from ECP/GSF or BMW for that matter. £10-15ish ??

Look for the arrow on the end of the spray bar to make sure you fit it the right way around, arrow points to the cam sprocket.

Drill the head of the banjo bolts(oil spray bar bolts) and lock wire them to the spray bar so they carn't come undone, if(when) they come undone you will wreck your cam and rockers.

Will do that when i've run the engine in, about 500miles, then need to set all the tappets etc, so will do the mod and check the cam for wear.Cheers Guys.
