This is a 1972 BMW 2002 model. As of right now I can't afford to drive this car due to the fact I have to pay for college and I can't afford the repairs and work necessary anymore.

Back in October ...

I am told by most people that to time a carb you dont need a timing light...just a good sense of what shaking is bad and how well you can hear

My tac doesn't work and I am fed up with the car. I haven't had my car since October. I had to rebuild the motor and I am just sick and tired, I need someone who knows what to do.

All right I give up. I can't figure out why the hell my car wont idle well and its very slugish. Timing is right but I just can't figure it out.

Does anyone know where I can take my 02' to get work ...

I have a coffee can coming out my 02. Due to the fact my old stock exhaust was trash and the muffler was trash too. I took it to a muffler shop had them bend pipe and get the exhaust put in for 300 bu ...

I will do a compression test as soon as I can get my hands on the gauge

Got all that put in and ran the c ...

The cam timing cant be off because I made the motor TDC and cranked it a few times to make sure the tick marks lined up properly each time.

Now the firing order. I goes 1-3-4-2 correct?

I am ass ...

I will do that then. Anyways lets say that that isn't my problem and that it may be a little more serious. Any other thoughts?

Never touched my fuel filter. I believe it would be 8 years old or so, but the car ran just fine with this filter a month ago before I did a rebuild

I have a Weber 32/36 2BBL Downdraft DGEV autochoke

I have Sylvania Silverstars for my head lights and I absolutely love them, but I am trying to find some good round fog lights to put on my 02'. Anyone have any suggestions on brands, and what type exa ...

My seal seems to keep leaking a little bit. I think I need to go ahead and get a new seal but i can't seem to find one. I don't want to have to resort to using RTV to seal it ;)

Sent email about the grills.

I live in San Antonio shipping shouldn't be much?

Just a quick question. I am interested in the Rota Auto-X rims. (White with a red lip). Heres the dimensions they offer:

15 x 6.5 +40 4h x 108
15 x 6.5 +40 8h x 100/114.3

I think they are 40mm ...

I can tell you what would go wrong with 22 inch spinners. My handling would go out the door.

I am planning to or atleast trying to get my car to be auto-cross worthy. Still have a long road ahead b ...

Actually I saw that thread not long ago and thought nothing of it, but that was because I wasn't worried about rims at the time but now, I will take note of this.

Any other helpful suggestions?

Ah a wise guy (^_^)

If I knew what to look for and what not I would but I don't >_>

I am currently in the market for new rims and tires and I have no idea what I am looking for. I definetly want an general idea so that if I do take my car into some place to have rims put on I want to ...
