Ok I've took off all the nuts, and the manifold is now loose from the engine.... the only thing stopping me from removing it is the oil return pipe and I cant seem to work out how to get this part off?

Anyone got tips on removing the pipe from the manifold??

Thanks

Are there any guides on how to remove the intake manifold on a m20b25. I don't have the workshop manual or anything for the car. I have searched on here but couldn't find anything that good.

Is there anything I need to be particularly aware of?

Cheers
Kris

Hi,

I require the inlet manifold gasket set for 1990 m20b25.

I also require the throttle housing gasket where it connects to the inlet.

Can you supply?

Thanks

Heres one I made earlier...

Click on it and it should open full size in good quality

It took a lot of fiddling to get the headlamp aim right, as the hydraulic adjuster mechanism had failed. So I took the car home as the garage was closing and had to take everything apart and free up the seized adjusters to adjust it manually.

Dam I was just about to have a go at doing this on my cab... thought it would be easy but then thought I'd check the zone first and looks like its not easy at all!?
Do I definitely need all those E36 parts then?
Oh well!

Can I have a price for the follwing please:

Hi, I have been searching and found the best plugs for my 1990 M20 325i are NGK BPR6ES. The gap specified on these plugs I have read to be 0.9mm, however I have also read that the plug gap in this engine should be 0.8mm. Can anyone confirm? If I buy them do I need to adjust / check the plug gap? Whe...

Picked my car up this weekend from Jules after he had fitted an M20 325i engine into it in place of my 1.8 M40.

Done 300 miles in the car since picking it up and i'm very pleased with it.

He's done a great job and is a top bloke!

Recommended to everyone!

Cheers Jules!

Bloody thing failed on headlamp aim too low! sorted it tho now passed and now getting a 325 engine fitted!

Is this part available?

Door not opening is an MOT failure...... hence the reason I am fixing it!!

£598 is for the hood and fitting

I think that is all, the car is at my parents so I won't see it now until the night before my MOT. Need to fix my central locking as currently the passenger door is deadlocked and can't be opened. All going well i'm then getting a 2.5 engine conversion starting monday, and then new roof the followin...

Good point Ian. I will run the car for 10 - 15 mins then take it on the bypass for 10 - 15 mins on the way to the testing station... hopefully this will charge the battery a little bit

Anyone?

I have an MOT booked for Saturday, the car has been garaged off the road for a good few months... couple of things: 1. The battery is flat, I will have to jump start the car. If it does not start again at the MOT test station will this fail it? 2. Is there anything else I should do to ensure a pass ...

I had a fully stainless cat back system fitted to my old car (peugeot 406 coupe 3.0 V6) by custom pipes in doncaster. 01302 325355 It was only £250, he made it in front of my eyes and I could choose tail pipe design, size of pipe, size of silencers etc. All with lifetime warranty. Might be worth a t...

Thats what I thought, being a heavier car than the coupe etc.

Will no doubt legally change it once I have had it one. May need to change to a more modification friendly insurer though.

Who have people found to be good insurers?
I'm with Admiral at the moment

Hi, I have a 1993 318i Lux Cabby (M40 engine) and I'm just about to arrange to have a 325i M20 engine fitted. I have a couple of queries: 1. Do I tell the Insurance company, declare on my V5 and ammend for the MOT? Opinions and estimates of cost please? 2. Do I need to consider upgrades to the suspe...

Is that a price I would get in any dealer? Or only from you?

I have a 1993 318 Lux convertible. All of a sudden the central locking has stopped working, when I lock the car with the key it doesnt seem to have enough power to put the door pin all the way down and hence only half locks the door! Theer is a kind of buzzing sound coming from inside the door when ...

Anyone know the performance figures for a 325i Cab??
I know it's 170 BHP but what 0-60, top speed, torque, mpg?

Cheers

how much £££?

Im in York but thanks anyway. I agree £30 is cheap but I just want to give it a freshen up so I would rather clean it with some injector cleaner I have at home anyway. Are you going to replace the gasket or bolts? Is it just a case of unbolt rocker cover, remove, clean (or replace), put back together?

Hi,
I want to clean the spray bar on my 318i, when I take the engine apart do I have to use a new gasket and new bolts to put it back together?
And what do I need to use to clean the spray bar?

Thanks!

Hi,
I need a small chrome trim piece for around the soft-top lid, right hand side. The BMW part number for this item is 51131932800.

Can you help?

Went to Sheffield Trimming Co today and got quoted £520 plus VAT. So around £610 in total which was a bit more than what I hoped. He did have a second hand black one which he said fitted would be £300 all inclusive. I prefer blue but it's quite a saving for a black one! How much has everyone else pa...

I live in York at the moment, have a University house in Sheffield tho.

Do you know how much for a soft top at sheffield trimming co?
