Very nice work. Keep it up

You might wanna take a look at changing the 12 seals on the injectors while you are there

cormier · 08-13-2012, 11:12 AM

Yessssss it shall be done

At first when I was trying to get the pumps on I was glad to be covered in fuel when it came out...then when it came out of the rail not so much...

Everything in my power will be done so that fuel stays in the lines

Although it's actually pretty dangerous, I got a laugh out of that botched injector install picture. Can you even install all your injectors that way and still bolt the fuel rail to the mounting points? I know on the M20 you wouldn't be able to.

Hopefully you get her running this week dude. That way you'll have everything sorted out by the time the E30 meet/cruise rolls around... and by that I mean us E30 guys should probably set-up a cruise for late September because we haven't done anything yet this year.

Ya actually I may have ...forgotten some of said clips whoops! But ya I all could think of was mythbusters when they said the most dangerous explosion potential is vaporized pressure-driven gas and then I see a cloud/mist of it... Lol

I was also gonna ask you about an e30 meet! Lol last big one I made it out to was like 2 years ago in Scarborough and it was epic!

Well, you did come out last year... just not in an E30

cormier · 08-13-2012, 12:07 PM

Yes yes well there was that, but I didn't think it counted :p

El Gato Liso · 08-13-2012, 02:25 PM

e30 meet? im down! but i gotta fix my non driving e30 first.......*sigh*

cormier · 08-13-2012, 02:34 PM

I think if we made a thread and tried to get one going, that would be the same story for most people :p

Let's be honest-- e30s are rarely ever truly ready to go lol

cormier · 08-13-2012, 03:38 PM

No not yet, Last day at work today then I'm off until Friday so I'll head up to maranello tomorrow then see what I can get done in a few days

cormier · 08-15-2012, 08:02 PM

Ugh fuels fine and now still crank no start -- also the fuel relays still having to be jumped...

Tried using the stock chip and nothing still. Tomorrow I'm going to try testing the CPS and connection, coils to verify spark and see why the fuel pump relay isn't working

Best guess is dme or cps :s

On the upswing, injectors got new orings and clips, no more leaking

Installed the new RSMs and used my old ones cut apart as bump stops for the front

And got the shifter installed. That pin on the tranny is quit hard to line up with the new bushings!

Tapped the piece for the end of the booster rod and the nut, installed nicely

El Gato Liso · 08-16-2012, 06:00 AM

well since my e30 is out of comissino for a bit, you can try out my 413 to rule out the dme if you would like. wheres the car located...sauga? when you available i have all day til 3pm.

i will bring my relays too...assuming you dont have a replacement. let me know...it HAS to get started!!!
