Okay. Maybe 3-4 months ago, I had a problem with my 325e. Engine was burning oil, and everything. Turns out that by some sheer odd chance, my piston rings went bezerk, and I retained compression( dont ask me why, or how, I am not a seasoned mechanic.)
Hours and months of arguing later, I swapped it. I now have another E in the car, and I'm having troubles. It turns, it sparks, it does not start. Hmm. Bastard car. Here is the knowledge I have retained, from my little experimentation:
1. Fuel reaches the fuel rail, not sure if it gets inside of it though. (when I pull line, it is pressurized at a normal level, I believe)
2. Injectors recieve signals. Tested them with little bosch PFI thing you put on the harness tips or whatever.
3. Coil is good. Plugs are good. Plug wires are good. Battery terminals good. Electrical system overall: unknown.
It's probably my injectors, but I used the intake manifold off of the original engine (worked before) but now they don't seem to fire. The only way I can hear it's sweet revs is if I spray starter fluid in intake, and it only spikes to 1000 rpms then dies. :(
Thanks for all the help guys, I left you guys with no warning last time, and alot of unanswered questions that you guys tried to help me with.
Any input, insight, or help you can give me is greatly appreciated as always, as well as your time.
