Hey guys, im new here.  I just purchased a 91 318is.  I am super excited to start doing some work on it.

I want to order the service manual from Amazon, but the Robert Bentley manual that they have only gooes up to 1990.  What manual or book to you guys recomend i get? is there anything that covers the M42?

You'll need both the E30 Bentley and the E36 Bentley.

I found it on rapidshare. It is 93megs. If you have a place to host it, I can copy it. This is only for the e36 which will cover the m42 engine only.
