10 year old petrol is going to be useless, get some fresh in there! Hope you've not fucked the bores or anything else internal if you've just tried starting with no other prep work.

i removed the underdash panel this morning to check things are plugged in and to hook a live feed up from the ignition for the fuel pump.I found the foxgaurd immob on the back of the panel and a secret switch that i hope is a fuel pump cut off as this was a common practise back in the day up here in twoc central!

i'll have to try to start it again tomorrow as the day will be mostly taken up by fixing other peoples turds :(

The 323i crank has a longer stroke than the 325i one, so theoretically, you could use it to make a stroker:

I gather the 323i piston bore, cylinder head and conrods are the same as a 320i.
