How does the oil flow in the engine?

[Stevehose]

What is the flow of oil from the pump to and through the head? Does it only go up through the back head bolt hole past the pressure gauge or does it go up the front of the head also? Any diagrams out there on the M30?

Am curious.

I know it goes up front too as oil flows into the rocker shafts from the head bolt hole and there are four shafts.

How does it get into the spray bar?

That would be a nice piece of garage art if a 2'x3' poster could be made!

I've had that though about various things seen online.

Basically, grab the .pdf, .png, .bmp or whatever format it's in, take it to your friendly local print shop and they should be able to print it any size you want, on an media you want.

But they should tell you (or you'll soon find out) that the resolution isn't sufficient and it'll look hell when expanded much beyond the size you see it on your PC screen.

Different story if you can get a hi-res image...

That is actually an M50 E36 engine diagram. Thanks to Google.
Can't seem to find an M30 diagram.
