        Brushed off the connections and tightened. Now it runs at 800rpm instead of 1000. Ill see if it fixes the bucking.

                He saved that M3, so sure its dirty. But it could also be in the junkyard in pieces

                  There is a fusable link on the DME power wire from the battery. Those get old and can have micro cracks causing an intermittent brown out like you describe.

                    Oh its quite a mess, a ground isn't attached, a wire that was attached to battery cable is broken..

                    Still starts and runs fine normally though..

                          Since I haven't had some of the issues with the M42, I'm with you. Although I'd like to try the lightened flywheel swap.

                                seriously considering taking a loss on the wagon and buying that sedan.... We should go check it out soon and get some nice pics for a cl ad. I can sell the goodies on the side for some extra cash :D I wanna feel the difference in handling sedan vs coupe.
