Title: my introduction!!
Post by: veloce13 on March 22, 2010, 10:49:29 AM

Hi,

 My name is jake, i live in santa maria, CA I just bought a 93 318is with a m42 motor, got it cheap, and now im wondering if its even viable. It was stolen and some parts were stripped off the car, i knew about that, but I found a hole puched in the oil pan!! So im pulling the pan to clean it up inside, after that im not sure what i want to do! Its a good looking car and its pretty clean, might just do an engine upgrade to the 2.5/6 any one have any experience with this?? Or would anyone like to buy it, if anyone has some extra parts around they could get it running im sure

thanks in advance,

jake

Rule #1.. Pics! :D

Also, if you have the lower oil pan off be sure to check the upper oil pan bolts etc (lookup the thread somewhere on this site)
