According to TIS, Inspection 1 on my 1998 3.2 E36 M3 requires valve clearance checking. According to this: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=CD91&mospid=47449&prod=19971200&btnr=11_1308&hg=11&fg=25 - http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=CD91&mospi d=47449&prod=19971200&btnr=11_1308&hg=11&fg= 25 the valvetrain section shows bucket and shim tappets. But according to the guy about to service my car, I have hydraulic tappets. Does anyone know for certain who's right? Andy |

100%, without a doubt, most certainly bucket and shim. No hydraulic nonsence on an Evo engine Ian. ------------- If it ain't broke, Modify it!! |
