Hello everybody
I have a question regarding my BMW e3 3.0si DJet.
It drives lovely but I noticed that the engine does not have a lot of power.
It takes of in first and 2nd gear very well, as soon as I go to 3th it's getting harder to go faster or go on to higher rpm.
First of all how do I test the coil/ spool? What are the wanted values and can this be a problem?
This is my first e3, maybe it's in my head but I expect a 200hp car wirh 60k kilometers to have a little more then it has now.
I was thinking about some things to chek, but I would love some expertise from more experienced people as well.
-new sparks
-rotor is very worn so I ordered a new one (possible explanation?)
-rotorcap is also very worn so I ordered it as well
-spool-coil change (want to test it first)
-pressure test cilinders (hope this is ok, I'm waiting on a testing tool)
-fuel pressure, no idea how I can test that one with my tools but the pump looks new
-vacuum adjustment sparks
Does anyone have some more ideas?
Anyways thanks for the help!
Have a nice day
