Hi again, maybe fate is trying to tell me something? Today I managed to sort out the Mikuni bike carbs on the car by dropping the needles further into the jets. Seems much better and pulls better than my 320ise did. Thing is, the guy who told me about this carb wizardry also sold me a 1984 735i (3430cc I think?) with a recently rebuilt motor. £100 and I pick it up next week in running condition. seems a shame to break it but they are such crap looking cars anyway. This BM has the Alpina badging on it on the rear and the stripes on the sides, also has the E28 M535 TRX Light alloys, but I doubt it's a real one. I wanted to post a pic of the carbs but can't figure out how to do it, can anyone help?

regards!!!rob
