So right now it cranks but won't fire up....what could it possibly be?

Does the tach move while cranking/is the dme getting power?

[perzbenz]

A lot more than you probably hope. Start with the most common things. The engine needs air, spark, and fuel to start. Make sure you dont have vac leaks, make sure you are getting spark, fuel etc...

It takes time but just do it step by step and hopefully you come across the problem sooner than later.

Yep! Check the basics

Any visits from Mister Sparky yet?

Jay & John thought the fuel pump was bad, so they bought a Walbro. They can hear the pump prime sometimes, but John says there's not enough fuel pressure happening.

I think they're more than a little frustrated...

So I figured out their is no power going to the pump for the most part. Every once in a while it will work for about 1sec I haven't gotten around to checking everything because of school and work and btw Kingston thanks!

Man, I need a cute girl who's a grease monkey! Great swap so far. Wiring is easy. If you got questions I could help.

Edit: You got the dreaded crank but no start. PM me.

Me too. Now I have to go kill an hour looking at old pics of my E34 M5 and some for sale threads.

pics of progress!

I hate reading.

[kingston]

There's not much progress to speak of at the moment. Jay & John decided to get the car to a shop to have the wiring gone through.

They just picked up an IX brake booster for the project.

That's about it!
