    e30 m10 weird ICV setup

    Click image for larger version  Name:	IMG_0189.jpg Views:	0 Size:	200.2 KB ID:	10130988 Noticed my ICV setup was rtoated 180 degrees and there is an extra ICV plug... any ideas why this would be this way? My assumption was a shop the p/o did it and didnt have the right hoses but that seems way more complicated wiring in a new icv hose then just waiting for new parts

    1985 318i
    p/o drove this car home from the port when it was imported

    ICV orientation looks normal from when I had my M10.... I believe the other plug goes to a solenoid valve for vacuum advance. It usually sets on the rear firewall cover (below wipers).

      Interesting. A lot of cars i've seen have the ICV plug side facing the firewall (mine faces the front) but thank you.
