Hi Guy, Is she running again? Was it electrical, water in the intake or was the exhaust full of water? I know... so many questions, but I'm sure others would...
I have been thinking about a motor a lot lately. First I was thinking an s14 swap, then I thought about me bank account. Then I was thinking maybe m42, but I...
Thanks Jim Great question. I'm in the same spot and mulling through the pro and cons of similar options - M42, S14, M20 or some performance rebuild of my M40....
Well I don't have any real advice to offer you, just wanted to give you props on sticking with the M10! If anything, you might want to talk to Jim Rowe at...
... thinking ... thinking ... Well I have and I love my M10!!! Basically here's what Ive done... Engine; 2002 forged crank thus 80mm stroke JE 9.8/1 pistons...
Folks, You are heading in the wrong direction, I think. With the correct amount of money and advice from experts, you can get a lot of extra power from the M10...
Bob, IMHO your wrong, the M10 block was used for years, look at flow charts from BMW as for its use. Years of 2002 racing (The car that saved BMW in NA) makes...
Gde si bre burazeru, Evo ovde u Beogradu mogu da ti nadjem bez problem ali neznam koliko ti se to isplati zbog transporta. Pogledaj attachment da vidis sta sam...
I recently sold my 84 318i; I've got the following parts to sell: NEW 3 oil filters (Mahle and Mann) 1 Whaler Thermostat USED 1 instrument cluster; speedo does...
Hi Bill, Sorry, I don't require any of the listed items... but I thought that I should comment on the instrument cluster. Mine had been working on/off for the...
Thanks Thomas! This is the original cluster out of my old 84 318i; when my speedo went kaput I just bought another (used) cluster and swapped it into the car. ...
Rodd, It's a VDO...and you know I just looked at the unit and the (defective) speedo AND fuel gauge have both been removed---I have the speedo, but as I now...
Hey guys/gals, Just picked up my 84 318i coupe last monday and I'm pretty happy with it so far. It has 207xxx miles on the chassis with a 30k rebuilt motor....
Congrats on your new-to-you E30! While going through the usual tune-up items... check to see if the in-tank fuel pump is working. When they act up, they cause...
Evan, Look directly between the Tach and Speedo and then down 2" and there should be raised lettering indicating MotoMeter, VDO should be in the same place I...
That's funny because I just noticed that on the way home today that it actually says VDO on there. But thanks for the confirmation anyway. Now with that said...
I've got a few parts left over from the '85 318i I had that should find a better home. All parts located in Naperville, IL 1 pair of Bilstein Front struts. 1...
The engine and transmission are still a unit. They came from a car that was rear-ended, supposedly with about 100K on the car. Most injection items are gone,...
Jim, I'm hoping somebody like you pops up in the Seattle area. I've toyed with shipping the engine and tranny up to Juneau, where I live, just in case a nice...
My '85 318i "stumbles" at about 5000 RPM. I had this problem in my 94 'Cav and my 99 Alero. Both being because of the rev limiter. Does my '85 318i have a...
The E-30 318i doesn't have a rev limiter, Bill. One possibility - your car's distributor is worn to the point that it begins to cause the stumble at 5000 RPM....
Actually the L-Jet system on the 318i does have a rev limiter in it. Because it's an anolog system it can vary from car to car. My 84' 318i rev limited at 6400...
there is a rev limiter, but it shouldn't come until about 6500. However, a lot of 318 tachs that I see, for whatever reason start to read too low as the revs...
This could be tune: you might need to advance or retard the timing, OR it might be fuel pump -- on my race car, when hot, it stumbles at 5k and picks up at 6k....
