You shouldn't. She dumped some coolant yesterday (not sure where it came from), drips oil from everywhere, and today, she wouldn't start but then she did and was running really rich with plenty of smoke coming from the exhaust all while doing some soft consistent popping (sort of a chug) at idle.Originally posted by chadthestampede View Post
But...she's still fucking awesome.Comment

loool. Did you change out that fuel pump relay yet? I think that might be part of it. The fuel pump could be on it's way out too for all I know. I have an extra one if you need it. The coolant temp sensors on these things are moody, and if there's air in the system like I think there is that could be part of the problem. Which brings us to our next topic...Originally posted by MattAvino View Post
Make sure the bleeder screw is tight, I think I just hand tightened it when I was bleeding it. Chances are there's still air in the cooling system and it might be dumping coolant out the overflow. It holds something outrageous like 15 quarts of coolant so I'm almost completely sure there is still air in there.
It never dripped a whole lot of oil when I had it, I hope I didn't pinch the o-ring when I put the filter housing back on. I'll give you the b35 housing soon which will make it a ton easier.
Also as far as I know this is the only b32 swapped e30 around. I had that on japandrew, at least my 333i was really 3.3 liters (well 3.2 anyway).Comment

I havent changed the relay yet. I will soon.
I will check the bleeder screw. The coolant drips from the passenger side frame rail about 4 inches behind the CAB.
Also, after idling for anly about 5 minutes (after cold start), the temp gauge suddenly pegged max heat. But, I'm pretty sure the temp was actually fine.
Also, I think you mentioned that there is an engine block (m20?) in a basement somewhere in Buffalo. Let me know the details if you can, because I'm thinking of making an engine block coffee table.Comment

131 Richmond. Probably still there unless they cleaned the place out which I don't think they did. Who knows who lives there though.Comment
