Hopefully a swap of the ECU and CPS will allow it to fire up.
Can any one give me a quick rundown of how to change the CPS? I looked at it last night with a flashlight and it was so gunked up that I couldn't really see what was going on with it.Originally posted by Grueliusand i do not know what bugg brakes are.

Haven't touched the ECU at all.
Take a fuel line off and get a bottle and crank it and see if it is getting gas, if gas comes out an there is no ignition, i would bet it is the ECU, i would ask someone with a 318is if you can borrow it?

A friend has a spare M42. We're heading out to try and get mine running in a few min.Originally posted by Grueliusand i do not know what bugg brakes are.

Update:
Swapped with two working ECUs - nothing
I tested BOTH the cam and crank position sensors and they're both WELL within normal ohm readings.
Main white relay is also functioning.
Cylinders ARE getting fuel.
Motronic pedal fault code = no faults
Any other ideas?
Has any one ever had all four spark plugs fail at the same time?Last edited by KenC; 10-11-2007, 07:13 AM.Originally posted by Grueliusand i do not know what bugg brakes are.
