    Engine check

    I am new to the whole e30 thing and i dont really know what the engine should/shouldn't have. The previous owner stated that the fan went haywire and broke and fell into the radiator causing the fan to shatter and so on and so forth. i will upload all the pics i have, and if you notice something that looks out of the ordinary or missing. thanks in advance

    You need to get a new intake boot, the small line from the fuel pressure regulator (black line that is lying on your valve cover) is off and your belts look like shit but I am sure you already new that. Also, your alt is falling off;)

          The little black vaccuum line from the fpr goes to the nipple sticking out of the back of the intake man. Also you'll wanna change that T belt and the H20 pump obviously, along with the Tstat. If you don't know when it was last done.

            x2 with the timing belt. The part is $30 and you already have complete access to it. it should take you notime to do it. not to mention if you dont know when it was done last, Now would be a great time to do it.

                Um, if you aren't sure it could be pretty hard to install. Did you get your Bentley yet?
