thought i'd stick an introduction up as im pretty new to the forum.
heres my touring... std as i bought it atm...

if you see me come and say hello...
its going to get dropped very soon and some wheels sorted. also got an e36 interior to go in with a few adjustments. going to leave it pretty standard other than that as i have a turbo capri project that is the true weapon of choice.
anyway.... hi everyone!

right peoples..... the beemer let me down today...... wouldnt turn over! its been slow on kicking over for the last couple of weeks, just a bit delayed on firing up but today it didnt want to have any of it!!
checked the usual, plugs look good but replaced them anyway, replaced the air and fuel filter, took the fuel line off the rail and made sure the pump had pressure up to the rail all fine, tried starting and nothing...... it turns and every cylinder has a spark but the plugs dont come out wet after starting to fire up.
any ideas?????
it logically sounds like blocked injectors but all 6 block at the same time seems a bit far fetched??
its an '88 320i... so m20?? engine??
any ideas welcome..... gunna see if i can pick up a fuel rail and set of injectors from the scrappy tmrw.
cheers. paul

yeah got 1/4 tank... would be easier if that was the problem!
will a rail and injectors from a 325 suit a 320?? wont the injectors have a higher flow rate??
cheers. paul

Welcome to the Twiligh-I mean, er, E30Zone!
I'm fairly new myself, but I've met a few fellow zoners last night, and they're a sound bunch. Your touring looks good, why don't you turbo that, instead of the Capri?
