I thought this would be a hot new tip, but apparently it's been out there on the internet for a number of years: The in-tank transfer pump is only available...
well it seems to be the waterpump everyonce in awhile the belt will squeel, the water pump appears to be leaking and the thermostat bouinces around. whatchya...
I guess while you're replacing the water pump you can put a new belt on everything when you're done. That 'straight piece of metal with a slot in it' that...
Just a quick question. Has anyone out there replaced the valve GUIDE seals without removing the head in the process ON 1984 318I BMW???? Just a quick...
was wondering if someone would be so generous as to scan there book for me mine is in storage somewhere. and i havent replaced them on my 318i '84 yet...
... GUIDEseals ... Hi I don't think you can get the rocker shafts out with the head in place, also you would need to stop the valves opening instead of the ...
Hi! I was wondering if anyone has had problems with removing the back driver side tire. I've taken off the lugs, but it still won't budge I'm wondering if it's...
Sounds like your wheel is rusted to the brake drum. Take a 3-pound hammer (or a rock!) and bang on the tire a few times. If you want to whack the rim, use a...
Thanks! You know it seemed that way too, When I removed the bolts, and tried taking it off, I noticed there was a little bit of play while I was rotating the...
This can happen when the grease coating between the contact surfaces breaks down. A thorough cleaning of those surfaces with solvent (once you get it off) and...
Common sense, I would say. Axle grease could be too heavy, while a lightweight grease you might use for small bearings could be too thin. Anything in between,...
well i replaced my front pads and the brake master cylinder last night because i was told that is why my brake pedal has been going to the floor. So when i...
1. The caliper needs to `float' so that the two pads wear evenly. If only one pad shows wear, I suspect that caliper is stuck and you are only getting...
I should probably have also added that you could replace the rear brake cylinders for not much money. I find these problematic and am changing them out every...
When a brake master cylinder fails, the seals inside the brake master cylinder are what go south, allowing brake fluid to flow past them and allowing your foot...
My experience has been that when the booster is not working properly the pedal feels very hard, yet requires a great deal more pressure to get the vehicle to...
Plenty of info around on this one try some of the 02 sites, there is also some good info on E30zone. These engines like more compression, also the squish gap...
I have a 318i that sat for about a year. It ran fine before it was parked. It will start and run for a while as long as you don't hit the gas then it will shut...
... My first thought is fuel gone bad. Did you use a fuel stabilizer? If not and the tank was partly full, you may have some water in there. The injectors...
I also think that old gasoline could be the culprit. One way of syphoning the old gas from the tank would be to remove the rear seat bottom cushion to access...
Hello everyone; My name is Kathy, I am not mechanically inclined or even good with electronics *sorry* Hubby has a 1984 BMW that has alot of new parts on it....
