Recommended Posts

i failed miserably at installing my distributor . i need the unit that bolts to the back of the head(closest to the firewall) and contains the oil pressure sensor and distributor shaft input. mine was cast in 75, dont know if it makes any difference. would like to get this engine running before new years.

distributor was a tight fit in the housing. thought i could make a lil more clearance via prying the housing open a LITTLE bit with a screw driver between the pinch bolts ears. took less effort than i thought before the aluminum fractured and leaving me with an oil leak.

the used (new to me) one that i purchased from a faq member was also very tight, i decided to clearance it out with 150 grit and 220 grit aluminum oxide sand paper, cleaned with braklean untill it took less effort to slide in.

like i said haha. it was a fools mistake.

HAPPY pkbinplano?!

ps how was sandwich fair?

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
