Sweet, thanks a bunch Mike.

Thanks Mike. yeah, I've got the later single pump but the older LJetronic computer. I'm curious to know if you think it would cause any driveability issues having the motronic (later) fuel relay - whi ...

Must be one of those, "the car is in X state, you have to pay an escrow service," scams

A couple members helped me narrow down my fuel supply issue to the relay (I thought it was the pump and I was wrong, big surprise.. hah), and I found that the relay I have is for the motronic. I have ...

PO set the pump up on an inline fuse and relay. All connections seem tight.
I am getting power to the fuel pump it looks like. Put my multimeter on 20 - Vdc and got 12.x. I'm a novice with electrici ...

Search really does work here too. Not like most forums where you find someone with a legitimate question and a ton of flamers. People actually help, and the archives have a wealth of info.

Yes, ta ...

Wow down already. Sold that fast?

Collector car insurance in cali is hard to get if you plan to drive the car much. The max is something like 3000 miles a year or something, you also need to get the car looked at or appraised or somet ...

Awesome guys. Thanks for the help. I'll see about it in a few hours and be back.

Bypass emissions equipment? Why, that's illegal!!

Distro looks good.

I thought maybe it was a fuse, but all the fuses are intact and all the lights work. All the dash guages power on.

I don't hear a thing from the fuel pump. So, now I am looki ...

Will do. Thanks.

stock 318i m10b18

Today, I was turning hard in a wide left turn through a light, and felt the engine lose power right after the apex of the turn. I was going roughly 35 - 40 mph. The car then died, ...

Yeah, I was praying that wasn't the answer though lol. The parts are different according to Real OEM, but I am not sure which years to check for either on the 325i or the 325e tb that I have - don't k ...

The plate in the FAQ shop says it's for a 325is. I've got a Throttle body for a 325e. I think they are the same, and search pulls up one instance of someone saying they are, but I just want to verify. ...

FYI. Those speed signs are for the DOT's traffic and engineering surveys. They use the data pulled from those signs to estimate what speed should be set as the limit for the road. They aren't there to ...

Just curious to know everyone's thoughts. I like my 1.8L just cuz it's not what everyone else does, and I know i'll want more power out of it eventually - turbo is another thing people don't do very o ...

Congrats. Can you just sum up the problem and the working solution for the archives, and my curiosity. Thanks.

Hey, shitty days for you guys. That sucks, sorry to hear. I wouldn't blame the pooch if I were you. I'd blame the weak-willed guy that got so scared a barking lab that he falls.... What a milkdud. I m ...

Just wondering. Next on my list is a full exhaust system from IE. Wondering if it's safe to assume that the stepped street header from IE will fit on the m10b18 around the 320i 5spd.

Thanks in adva ...

Actually the engine should run very well, just a bit rich without an o2 sensor. I ran mine like that for quite a while before I figured out that I needed a 3-wire o2 not the 1-wire version. When you i ...

I had a former 73 E3 Bavaria that the PO pulled the stock 3.0L and slushbox, dropped in a 3.3L and 4 speed from a 79 E24 and converted it to EFI. One thing, the PO forgot to wire in the o2 sensor. T ...

LOL bummer for Cris :(

Did I offend you?

Cris

No, sorry Cris. I too was under the impression that you were buying both just for the horn. Since the horn was no longer available and you'd ...

Welcome! Have fun

If you're a hardcore racer or autoxer then sure, getting rid of the sunroof with strengthen the body, but it's not like tooling around the streets in a sunroof car will result in damage to the frame o ...

LOL bummer for Cris :(

318i stock engine and L-Jetronic.

Yeah, have the wire for it plugged in.

Get under the car, and tada! the wire ends in a fray knot tied around the tranny mount. No there is no sensor in the man ...

The 318i came with electronic ignition from the factory, so I doubt they have a Pertronix unit for it. Either update it with MSD or Ford's EDIS system.

I've got the stock 318i Vac adv. Distro # 0 237 002 080

I'd like to put a pertronix ignitor in there, but I'm not sure one is made for it. So my question is this:

Is there a better distributor I ...

Glad to hear he made it out OK, Andy.
