Hi all, Looking for a 318i exhaust manifold. Must be in excellent shape and providing a pic would be a bonus. Looking for price shipped to 99016. Thanks, Rodd...
Hey everyobody, I am selling my E30 318i Parts collection, please go to the link bellow for description. I am not interested in deviding this stuff up, so you...
Somebody asked me if this board is still active, I said sure. However I just noticed that we haven't had a post since November 2007! Is everyone problem free...
Mladen, you may have suggested the answer to your own question. I suspect, as with your experience, there are not too many E-30/4 Cylinder owners left in the...
Actually I have been problem free. But like you stated most owners have learned how to work on theirs and I wasn't driving it. I retired it last year when my...
... I ... Mel, Of the 2-318i's I own, only 1 is stock. The AutoX/track car is a piece o' cake to work on now that I've gone to an onboard fuel/ignition ...
Bob, I think you are correct in your statement that 318i is fading away in the US. Fortunately, this is not the case with 6-cylinder E30 and the M42 engined...
That'd be me who originally asked the question about the status of the board. I'm looking for a place where I can ask questions and get answers without...
Rodd, e30tech.com looks interesting, when I started this group there was very little info about M10s, most everyone wanted to talk about M20s and M42s, and...
Welcome Noel, for parts in Seattle area, I would recommend Mercedes BMW Parts on Hwy 99 near Green Lake. 8110 Aurora Ave N Seattle, WA 98103 Phone: (206)...
For exactly the reasons you mention, I removed the FI from my 1985 318i and installed a 32/36 carb. I don't have any emissions issues to deal with in El...
Thanks Mel -- I appreciate the referral. I'll make contact and I'm sure I'll be using them. My problem is that even getting to Greenlake is a PITA for me. I...
Thanks Brian -- That sure cleans up the engine bay. Looks like it makes life a lot easier. Have you noticed any appreciable differences in performance or...
I have a set of dual Weber 40 DCOE's with manifolds I've been meaning to get rid of. I bought them a few years ago off ebay for my '84, but decided to keep the...
Hi Keith -- Yeah, I'm interested as I'm doing a 2002 build in the near future (in my dreams?) What shape are they in? Do they have the linkage in tact? What...
Noel, I'm working in Afghanistan for a while, so I can't help you right now with any German parts connections. I know that some of the 'auto skills' center...
Bob -- Thanks for your very thoughtful replies. I hope my questions are a good respite and distraction for you rather than a PITA, given where you're at. In...
Anyone working on a 24 year old E30 fuel injection system needs the Robert Bentley E30 Repair manual and RB's Bosch Fuel Injection manual from the same era -...
Funny... you guys are into an (ancient) FI setup and I, more M10 tradition-like (02-like) am into my planned upgrade of my 87 316: A set of twin choke 40 mm...
Bob -- WOW! That's an incredible bunch of advice. It sounds awfully daunting, but at least gives me some hope of eventual success. Thank you so much for...
That's a very good, thorough run through of what needs to be checked out on the 318i FI to have it working properly. And when it was working properly it was a...
Brian -- Thanks, the electronic ignition was going to be my next question. I had been told by a couple of guys that I'd have to go to '02 points to make the ...
Hi Denis, Well, each American state has its own automobile emissions standards, which may not be lesser than Federal government standards, but which can exceed...
Yeah...you're going to have to move to Central America. I don't think there's any hope of that becoming a racer, but you can't sell it, just as I can't sell...
I just picked up a rebuilt head that I was told was an E21 head. But I didn't see "E21" cast into the head anywhere. What is on there is "1.8". Is this the...
I wrote here some time ago regarding my frustration with my 318i as I couldn't figure out what was causing hard start and surging idle problems. Bob Sundberg...
Good for you Noel! Happy motoring! _____ From: 318iE30@yahoogroups.com [mailto:318iE30@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of noel.higa Sent: Saturday, May 17, 2008...
Thanks Bob. I forgot to mention that I was able to solve my parts problem by buying a complete engine sans the short block. The seller stripped everything...
