Carb kits Besides Steve's sage advice...... the intermeadiate gasket ( the one that is used for the float) is vitally important in shape and fit. The kits come with several gaskets that look similar. In the area of the swing of the float or fuel bowl make certain the gasket doesn't overhang- at...

Choke feed comes from a keyed fused line near the rear carb./ booster/ column. Originally a green wire. But your wires are backwards- meaning the cut off feed wire should be from the rear carb. Be careful to twist them a bit so they don't hit the main linkage bar. Choke setting should be the...

German Cars Has anyone got an explanation why in the heck german cars in Germany run fine when they're colder there and german cars in the US where it's not as cold have so much trouble? Did we just get the bad parts? Insert the name of your favorite german car here cause it seems across the...

mmm Idle- as Bill Clinton says," that depends on your definition..." Let's say 800 rpm, no vacuum, 8-10 degrees. But you're supposed to time at 1700rpm at 22 degrees. At 3500 rpm with an early distributer your number should be 36 degrees. At 3500 with a later distributer your timing should be...

No guarranty , expressed or implied.... remove the fuel line to the flooding carb and plug. Pour gas into the dry carb through the vent hole Steve is talking about. Start. In other words, let the fuel burn off and down on the flooded carb; the added fuel should raise the float in the stuck...

A not so obvious but common problem is the Ignition switch coming loose. Pull the cover, turn the key and watch the switch/ back of connections. If it pops out a little, it needs staked or a new switch. Does exactly what you describe.

Try Grainger industrial supply for those industrious owners. Multiple options and materials.( density) Bet they have a match to the firewall material too.

Dry transfer stenciling. Back in the days of draftsmen with pens and before computers, this was the process. You once could go to a graphics store and get lettering of all sorts. It's still around and a web search can get you what you want. You just have to correctly identify the font and size...

Aardvark sells repair webbing kits for Recaros. Also known as 200ad.com in the links section. Merry Christmas to all...

Err..mmm... throw those platinums away. They don't work in a vintage motor. Many have tried. My guess is that they really need a hotter burn as they just foul or never run right. Because of ethanol and no lead, your plugs will be a whiter shade of pale.( Sorry couldn't help myself...old...

I just thought someone might want it. Despite the sales/ price rhetoric we discuss regularly, asking price of $2800 for a running E9 ( the preffered lighter chasis of Alpina, et al, in the day) might be of interest to someone.

Yeah, but it's the holidays. The info was from the repair book, the BMW manual. There's a link above to the registry where the book can be found.:smile: The insulator is 20mm or otherwise may make up the difference referred to. Make sure you have the gaskets on either side which are just...

38's mixture screws will not likely be the same; within reason. Keep the jets the same size. From what you describe, they're in the ballpark. Is there something in particular you're trying to address?

FYI- Houston Craigslist- 2800 cs, $2800 obo. NMNA.

Looks like there's a corresponding socket that the wire attaches. Back to the lab ( under the dash) to recheck the situation. I noticed a groove in the column or cover, so the socket must slide in there to hold it.
