SO IF something like this existed why would it NOT be in the FSM? Where is the cable and connector for it? and How does it Actually work? since it is not listed in the FSM, how does one service it? I think the OVIAV or OVAIV (your post had both acronyms) is in the same class as muffler bearings... so please enlighten all of us on the specifics of this mysterious component

I am glad that our fellow member did not sell his zr1 for 10k. what a disaster that would have been for him after this problem was solved by resident guru's. I congratulate all the resident guru's for helping our member in distress.

Re: My last effort
I think the car was too rich and that oil was not the issue.....however that being said; BMW M54engines have an issue with condensation building up in the oil separator; freezing...then pressuring the system and forcing all of the engine oil into the intake, locking the motor:

Re: My last effort
My college profs knew the subject matter better than I did (til I got the stuff down).
At LEAST once a month, for 9 1/2 yrs (4 majors, paid from my own pocket while running a business), I'd get for an answer to my Q's, something like, "That's a good question...". So "hh", do you have a schematic of this gizmo-bob, in ANY car?

As I remember, it has a two wire connection down there. I remember wondering what it was. I wonder. I do know that no matter how long I have the car I keep learning stuff. It's only those that think they have all the answers that get in trouble. They cannot be educated.

Re: My last effort
Don't know how long it was running pig rich and washing down the cylinders, but hopefully oil consumption will be ok now with a fresh eeprom and oil change.
I don't see a chip running that badly being sold, but more likely I think the program got corrupted and a few 1's and 0's got mixed up in memory causing part of the fuel calculation to be way off. It would be interesting to me to read the old chip and see what the differences are. just remember that the first quart of oil burns off quickly from windage and oil level should dwell near the add line after that with much less consumption. |

Re: My last effort
This car has Jeal cams which have ramps that open quicker than even regrinds...meaning overlap, less vac...confusing the MAP Sensor and O2s...meaning its going to run pig rich more than likely.....if you did not program the chip for the cams...there are going to be idle and fuel issues.
