    Engine fire

    Yup, its taken a better part of a month but I can now talk about it. Just finished restoring her http://www.r3vlimited.com/gallery/sh...hp?i=12112&c=2. I mean a week before. Was experiencing some minor hesitation and had exhausted the possibilities. We decided it could be a faulty FPR so we were going to replace it . The part never arrived so we reinstalled the old one. Waited while it idles for 10 mins and then I drove home. My son asked me to take him to baseball practice and we got in the car, started it, and it caught on fire. Upon investigation the "O" ring folded over and it must have been misting after I shut it off. Anyway $6000 and 300+ hrs of finding parts, figureing shit out, mods.
    Anyway Im looking for a motor with harness complete swap. Something special. Any thoughts. 87 e30 vert pristine. I mean showroom check my gallery
