45 weber's have poor progression, Dellorto's would be a better choice.

Re-check alignment marks on prop, usually a white dot/mark on each section.

All flanges correctly mated and bolts tight.

Carrier bearing not trashed by poor assembly technique.

Fine to deal with.

Coolant or water = Taste it or sniff it.

Rubber seal around top of door.

The relay coil is energised every time the door is opened, so whether or not the windows are actually moved when the door is open is irrelevant. or the plastic button on the door that operates the pin switch has fallen off. Based on the above statements, how do you ensure the pin switch is working ...

If I had to choose between the two, I'd go for the part that works the windows. The inductive load presented by the relay tends to keep the contacts on that switch cleaner than the resistive load of the interior lights on the other switch does, so is marginally more reliable.

Phosphoric acid is milkstone remover

Go to your local farm supply shop and ask for milkstone remover.

Approx £10 for 5L

Its used in the dairy industry to remove milk from pipes etc.

Its a braking system, don't mess about.

BMW designed a system that works safely and passes all required standards, etc.., don't modify it.

If pipes are of sufficient length, cut off incorrect ends and re-flare.

Just curious...what part of the pump is faulty ?

Did you bleed it

Double clip high pressure fuel line terminations.

Check door pin switch. It's has double contacts.

£27.75 3 years ago.

Re-used one of the old seals.
Gently cleaned with a nail brush and stuck on with sika flex.

Use a flap wheel and angle grinder

I'm sure if you make an effort to look on more than Autotrader, and not just ask for people to find you car's you'd get more help mate Autotrader is just one example where i've looked.

Will the value differ from the rest of the UK than N. Ireland. I no it does on some cars engines size etc etc. Depending upon car type, values do differ, although this is largely due to market demand. After all its still the UK.

Own insurance company has advised it may be worth having a look at cars for sale in similar condition to get an approx value. Had a look on Autotrader, not a lot there.
