OBD2 S50 up and running!

[S.Low]

Quick update. It does run @328ijunkie. Thank you so much.

But. There's always a butt. I reused one of my oil pumps from one of my spare parts engine. Obviously unknown condition. So. Low oil pressure at idle.

I should have reused my oil pump from the engine out of the car. Smh.

Will be changing out the oil pump this week someone. Hopefully that hits the spot.

Thank you again!

Awesome. I haven't driven my car in awhile. cannot wait till its running again.

thank you so much for the help. i'll keep you updated on how things turn out.

Good luck, LMK if you need some help with the tuning side of things ;)

The 328i cable should reach. We just completed an S50 running OBD2 in a 318ti with the help of 328ijunkie :up:

Remove the crank sensor adapter harness completely. Plug vanos solenoid directly into fuel rail.
M50/M52 TBs are interchangable electrically.

OK great I think that was the last piece to my big question mark.

I hope the throttle cable on the 328i is long enough then.

Thank you so much, I'll let you know how it goes after engine goes in this Saturday.

m50 Throttle body?

also, I noticed that you are using the m50 throttle body and I was not sure if I would be able to use it on the 328i.

Reason being my m50 came with a Dinan Throttle body and would much rather use it than to sell it.

Any input on this matter?

I guess I could just try it and see what happens.

Plug OBD2 sensor into OBD2 harness and go! ;)

Thank you for quick reply, life saver!

That's all? I've been wrecking my brain the whole time I was putting the engine together. My brain kept asking what if it does not work like planned. Then brain overload.

So leave these two plugs tucked away somewhere not on the way, and pug in the Secret Sensor to the main harness and good to go?



Thank you thank you!

m50 3.0L stroker hoping to run OBDII question

Hello,

I have some questions, if you could help me clarify some things please.

I just recently finished my Budget 3.0L stroker that I planned on running on my OBDI e36 325i. No longer have that car so I now plan on installing it on my current OBDII e36 328i.

it is running m50 block with no crank position sensor on the block obviously so I bought the Super Secret Euro Crank Position Sensor on the original post.

Not sure how it all works together, I'm hoping its a plug and play but I feel that would just be unreal. will it plug in straight into the OBDII Harness with no modifications?

Worst case scenario I convert the car to run OBDI but I'd much rather run an OBDII setup.

Here are some pics for reference, hopefully it helps understand my question.













^^^^^^Is this where the Super Secret CPS will plug into?

Thank You,

Any input is appreciated.

I welded an extra tube onto my dipstick tube. I ran the hose down to it and called it a day. Car runs well without any issues. The small vacuum tube is also connected to the ICV piece that goes into the intake.

Any other alternative besides to get the tube welded?

That should help point in the right direction.

Anyone has any diagram to where the ccv should be connected without the m50 intake manifold conversion kit? Need help here.

So meaning to say check the fpr? Oh yeah one more thing I forgot to mention, everytime when the idle goes crazy, the oil warning light comes on but when you rev it, it's gone. When you leave it to idle, it comes back. So what I do is switch off the engine and crank it up again.
