Hi Everybody.
Bought an e30 320i some months back now. And the Cam belt snapped after a few weeks
A week later i wrote off my 200sx s13, that had a BMW 525i engine fitted from an auto car, but was converted to manual before it went into the nissan.
A friend is doing most of the work as he fitted the engine into the nissan.. Obvouly the best man for the job
Engine and gearbox bolted it.
Propshaft made up and fitted
Electrical wireing is 80% complete, its just temp guages inside the car that need finishing
So basicly, if the engine ran in the nissan it should now run in the BMW, but it does not
We seem to have very good fuel pressure from the origional E30 fuel pump !
The engine will run however if easy start is sprayed into to inlet, it just wont run on its own fuel. After looking further into it we have found that there is no pulse on any of the wires at the injectors!
Someone told me a few days back that these engines have two crank angle sensors. 1 for ignition and one for fueling. Is this right, and where the injector pulse comes from ?
The nissan had fairly heavy front end damage so maybe this sensor was damage if the information ive been given is correct.
If im looking in the wrong areas here, any ideas as to why the engine wont run on its own fuel would be very much appreciated
Thanks everyone
