loosen (counterCW) to lean it out - use the volmeter trick on pin 5 to check it. Or just see how many turns you are away from full tight (usually 4-6), and open it maybe two turns more. Then return it to previous setting after emisions test.


I believe the fuel pressure and vacume is fine. The M5 runs pretty good. It's my 528e that has the fuel pressure problem.

No, I never played with the AFM or set the base idle. Without the CO measuring device I think I'll just end up spinning myself in circles.

If I do choose to tweek the AFM which way do I turn it..., clockwise - counter clockwise ?

Philo.
