Default BMW M50/M52 Engine Installations

There seems to be quite a lot of interest in the fitting of M50/52 engines in Cabrios and Sportsters so I thought I would start a new thread just for this subject.

Those watching the forum will know, before i've even finished my Sportster, i've gone and bought a 1998 2.8 litre M52 engine and (most) ancillaries.

I have been taking stock today what I have bought.
It's a complicated beastie so I have taken over 100 photo's today and have started figuring out what all the pipes, leads, connectors, sensors, etc do.

You can see the photo's on my Flickr site here...........

Plaese leave a comment if you have any answers, thanks.

In particular I am baffled by this bit hanging off the inlet manifold...



Realoem call it an 'Adjuster Unit'. What does it do? Do I need it?

I've taken off the aircon pump and alternator today but lots of cleaning to go......

cheers
Peter
