My car is a 1987 325 with the top end of a 1987 325i. I just finished putting the engine back together with the 885 head, larger intake, and other odds and ends. I didn’t change the starter as it worked just fine when I daily drove the car. I drove the bmw right into the garage to do the build.
12.5v to starter power wire
12.5v to starter signal wire
Jumped the terminals with a screw driver (sparks but no cranking)
Ran a jumper cable from the + distribution block to the negative starter termina.
I did not hit my starter or do anything that would cause it damage. Did my starter just magically die? I also replaced the battery. Could one of the terminals be having issues?
Thanks for your help!!
