ECU changed and its sorted

That's all good.

Well i plugged it into the Ethos reader and it said the Maff was up the spout, i replaced that and plugged it in again, it say's Lambda control 1 and 2 then over time Lambda sensor 1 and 2....... It runs ok without the Lambdas but at 17mpg on a long run.... I am getting power on the output to the La...

I had this issue it was a corroded connection on the Plus junction box/jump point i used off the E34.

cheers chaps I have new Lambdas on, I'll look into the Maff.

Hi the 02 is running and Fly's! But she is running rich, the tale pipes pump out loads of soot on start up (I had to wash the neighbours car it was so black) when driving the fuel she drinks is crazy also it smells a bit rich, sometimes when pulling away with my foot down she hesitates until higher ...

Mine seems to run hot, but the stat does not open until 95C i have checked it in the kitchen and its fine, i have a twin fan setup that runs off a relay and the stat in the original M60 rad, when these come on it drops the heat nicely, still not had a long run in it so i cannot say what its like on ...

Hi i remember talking to you at Gaydon last year how is the touring?
I got the diff from ebay £250 what a bargain...

I have linked the two pipes up the front.

Cheers.

I have a 2.79 it is great for road use, not tried it on a track yet. My exhaust is really quite, you can happily talk at 70mph revs at 2k ish, until you hit 4k then it roars. Here is a picture or two. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p433/tom1234_03/V8/IMG_1576.jpg In the end i just used the 600mm...

Could just be shit behind the dust caps.

Hoping to MOT it this weekend...... A few of the latest pics http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p433/tom1234_03/V8/temporary-5.jpg http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p433/tom1234_03/V8/temporary-2.jpg http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p433/tom1234_03/V8/temporary-4.jpg http://i346.photobucket.com/a...

I used the 4 into 1 from the later E39 on my 02 works a treat .

this is the only pic i have of the drivers side

I have a spare 5 spd but all the mount have had it

, so you'd need to make something up using the casing bolts.

Mine are the 4into1 from the e39

Thats what my paper work say's too.

It tells you in the paper work. I'll see if i can find mine as i cannot remember now.

New video

Cheers fella, don't know yet, think its no drive belt or no lambdas and exhaust......
I'll know more later in the week.

thats an expensive tickover but well worth it for the sound

Yeah all vaccum pipes are connected, i am getting new lambdas as they may be shot.

Cheers thats what i have done.

Does anyone know if you can get a smaller water pump pulley for the M60?
I am after something a few centimetres smaller.

Thanks Tom.

Where does the small hose from the bottom left of the throttle body go??? Its connected to a black plastic tube then back to a hose? Is it a vacum or summit It goes down and under the inlet, the top can be seen in the centre of the picture. Thanks Tom. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p433/tom1234...

if not the only thing left is the idle valve....;)

I do not have that in the car, will i have to bypass the wire or summit?
Where is the idle valve?

No.

Hi i have managed to get the engine to start, but it only runs for a bit, Have i missed a connection on the X20 wiring? I have searched through the wiring diagram and am beginning to feel lost :( Its a 540 manual from 94. If start it with the throttle open its fine, is there a choke of sorts? TIA Tom.

Are there any differences in the wiring for the M60 and M62 engines?
I can only find wiring diagrams for the M62 and none V8 E34's

TIA

Advice taken

Im just getting the gearbox flange grafted on to the front of a 325i prop.
