s52 fires but won't stay alive

Idle control had poped out of the intake lol.

Still wont run on its own though, im thinking its because i have no exhaust or back pressure at the moment

it should run just fine with headers only

My car ran fine with no O2 sensor or exhaust.

What were the results from the tests I mentioned. (unplugging sensors and what-not)

[dmjensen]

I have yet to unplug any sensors since the icv was completley seperated from the intake. Im going to finish my exhaust tomorrow and then investigate further. Anyone have a picture of the under side of an ovd2 manifold handy? ( i think i have all my vac lines but i just want to be certain )

3 vac lines, ICV and CCV.

[dmjensen]

Okay ive got all 3 then. One to the fpr, one to the charcoal canister valve, and one to what ever diapram thing is connected to the fuel rail. Sooo my next thing will be to clean my icv

What? Thats the FPR....?

[dmjensen]

Fpr is in the little box of things under the drivers seat on the e36's. The thing im talking about has a vac hose going over to what use to be the secondary air line.

[328ijunkie]

ah the solenoid valve.

[dmjensen]

so it runs, if i keep my foot on the brake...

massive brake booster leak, sooo looks like i'll be running no power brakes for awhile :up:

[328ijunkie]

Gasket between MC/Booster there?

[dmjensen]

You can hear the vacuum leak from the inside of the car but not the outside.

[328ijunkie]

Dead booster :(

[dmjensen]

I know... Any reason why my temp gauge dosnt work? When you turn the key the needle wiggles up to right before the blue but then after about 5 minutes of running it wont budge. Id really like that to function haha

[328ijunkie]

what temp sensor are you running?
