Vehicles after change point in 1982 CHECKING / ADJUSTING ENGINE PERFORMANCE (9.84 ... 9.85) Requirements for All Adjustments: Engine at operating temperature, which means oil temperature at least 60°C (140°F). Ignition timing and valve clearance okay. All electric equipment switched off. BMW service tester connected to instructions.
