if fuel injectors are switching but your getting no sparks, it could be a dizzy cap and rotor arm problem.

if you say that there is no water leak, then flush all the coolant out from the engine, change the thermostat and then make sure you bleed the coolant removing all air so you dont have any airlocks.

does your engine smoke when the needle is on red?

cheers brov, will tell you exactly which ones i need by thursday..

i have a prefacelift 1987 325i cabriolet
hi there just wanted the price for:

1. front m3 eccentric control arm bushes
2. front and rear anti roll bar bushes
3. rear beam bushes
4. trailing arm bushes
5. front top mounts
6. rear e46 m3 mounts

thanks.

thanks very much for your help ppl. nah sorry id just rather do the bushes my self but i aim interested in your front windscreen, where abouts are you in london?

anyone?

and these m3 eccentric bushes are for the wishbones right? i will buy original bmw bushes, i am looking to change all of them regardless if they need not to. so which ones make the main difference for the drive. as when i turn a full lock and do a turn i hear a knocking noise from underneath.

consider a ramp as you do not want to have the gearbox on your chest which will make the job a lot harder.

my car is going to the garage on saturday as i am changing my suspension. while the suspension is off, i am just wondering, apart from the mounts what bushes should i change and with what, as i read a lot of stuff about poly bushes and m3 eccentric bushes but i am not very familiar with these mods. ...

got any vacancies?

thankyou all for your help. i went to my local halfords and they did not have any compression gauges in stock so i could not do it today. BUT i changed the power boost valve to the original bosch fuel pressure regulator and guess what? the rough idle has stopped when car is still and i can already s...

lol. will remove it first thing tomorrow morning and see the difference. do i just replace it with a normal fuel control valve?

i also have a power boost valve fitted in the car, i presume this will make a difference on petrol consumption.

sorry last question. if i have to squirt some oil into the cylinder, do i do this through where the spark plug goes? im a newbie as you can tell

cheers mate youre a star. will do that 2moro and come back with results.

sorry i meant the si board batteries coming to end of life. my heads somewhere else today.

one question, off topic but this pipe on my friends car was connected to the throttle body cover and has now cracked. its going to be changed asap but just wondering the symptomps of this pipe not connected? rough idle, petrol consumption, power loss etc things like that

it could be your ecu coming to end of life

u lot are rubbing ur petrol consumption in my face. lol. how can i make my consumption like yours that is the question

what is the best way to do a compression test?

no problem. before i stick some of that in the fuel tank, it gotta have a full tank rite? thanks

yeah i might just have to do that. lol. aint given it a good bash for quite some time.

what about the hosees that connect on to the fuel filter. mine had a very minute leak coming from the top hose connecting to the filter but gave a very strong smell.

i have a set of brand new bilstein b4 gas shock absorbers? does anyone know if i put eibachs 30mm on these, what the ride comfort would be like?

upgraded bilstein shocks as a replacement to your originals and a set of eibach 30mm springs are supposed to give good comfort and decent handling.

btw my mpg dial started to play about a couple of months ago straight after the AA changed the crank sensor on mine which was attatched to the bell housing. it started working again for a day and then played up again. the mpg guage stays on 50 when the car is on idle and then as soon as i press the ...

the temp guage sits in the middle, takes normal time to get there, after a cold start will take about 3 mins of idle to start moving from the cold zone, another 3-4 mins of driving and starts to go nearly to the middle of the temp dial. i used bosch spark plugs that were put in in august. The car ru...

i mostly drive around town. it was not this bad since i had the car last year. is there a way to check if there is a chip on my car? also what is recommended to do to give me atleast over 20 mpg.

nop no leaks what so ever on the fuel lines so will eliminate this out of possible reasons for poor consumption.

happy owner of a 1987 325i cab. alrite lads heres the question? i get about 13-14mpg and about 28miles for 10pound on roads with very reasonable driving. im sure that even though petrol prices gone up i shudnt be getting that low consumption or maybe im wrong. what can affect fuel consumption? im lo...

im not sure if it does that, all i know is when the car starts to get warm, the rev meter just jumps between 300rpm and 900rpm for about 20 seconds to a minute and then totally stops. when i drive the car it doesnt affect the drive at all, but sometimes just before the car stops, the rev meter jumps...

ill do dat on da weekend. cheerz boys

ant, i left the engine till the temp guage was in the middle. opened up the oil cap and the engine started chocking and hunting, it didnt cut off though. i take it thats a good sign? whats the next step boss?
