I am trying to trace the trigger wire, which I am figuring is the single lead coming out of the ECU. As I'm checking continuity on that wire, (starting at the coil negative) it is showing continuity all through any ground on the car?is this the way your cars are? If someone can check for me That'd ...

I have 2 69 Dodge Chargers? Not sure if that would work, but I'm not getting a light out of the noid injector pulse tester light, so even if they are stuck shut, and they became open or operational, there is no pulse to trigger them. I am working all weekend so haven't had time to mess with it, but...

Hi Everyone, It's my first post but have found so much useful info on this site, I'm loving it. Ok here goes. I bought a 1980 528i been sitting for 4 years, had a bad fuel pump and a bad clutch, and some field mice decided some of the wiring tasted good so they ate some of it, as well as the clutch...

Last question. Did you find a source for that blue connector shell? I sourced black ones only...

What about crimping the new erminals? Did it require a "special" crimping tool?

Yes, if you break apart the shells you can re-use the contacts; depending on whether you get shells that are rear entry or not

Blaise, do you have a picture of the de-pinning tool you have for the EV1 fuel injector connectors? I'm coming up with no definitive one in my web searches. I'm about to replace my connectors and terminals soon. Found a source in Finland for all OEM connectors and boots, even the 3 and 7 connector ...

Blaise, You can also use the FPRs off of some 6-cylinder Jags. They bolt right up and actually have an extension on the outlet (bottom) that will curve back towards the firewall in the direction of your outlet hose. I can't remeber which year at the moment, though. The injectors are from mid-80s wa...

Blaise, Would you be interested in a custom twin 2" stainless steel exhaust incl. ceramic coated long tube Stahl headers that came off my 2.8 M30? If so, PM me. Comes with a Stebro rear muffler, Stebro resonator, hi-flow 2-in-2-out Magnaflow catalytic converter finished with two classy resonat...

I'm trying to reassemble the clutch hydraulic system. Unfortunately, the original parts (hose, lines etc.) were lost. So no examples available :(. I took some pictures of the current situation this evening (apologies for the quality). Is there someone who can help me out on determining the correct ...

The six resistors are ballast resistors and are not needed on modern high resistance injectors.

What did you do for injectors?

Yes Blaise, I will. In fact I want to keep a pictorial review of everything I do. So when my son takes over the car.... And Pete, I too hope we meet at the track. Nov is Roebling. I knew I would love driving fast on a road course. Something I wanted to do since the 70's when we used to go to Lime R...

Thanks Guys, I guess I'm going to pull it apart. Hope it makes some sense when I get into it. Will have to wait until after last track day Nov. 5th. Dont want to start and not be able to finish. I don't know if parts are in there broken, or if they were just taken out. I'll have 3 months to get tha...

Looks like I may be needing to do the same thing after the Ofest autocross and DE. I may pay to have it done as one local shop has a full set of shims

I can check factory manual at work. We did it at Jeff's but it was a pain if I recall correctly
