Engine + Driveline / Need urgent help... My summer vacation depends on this.. M42-M44 here we go..
« on: June 08, 2008, 06:19:44 PM »
Hello.
I have a 1992 318is with a pretty much used up engine (leaks everywhere, rattles and is in general bad shape) the problem is this engine is in my summer car, wich I have spent 5 years on doing up (yeah I know.. skipped the most important part..) and now I wanted to to a engine change to get a better engine in.
Pulled the M44 from the 1996/1997 318is, and tonight pulled the M42 engine. I was thinking of just using the long block, I.e. M42 loom, ecu, inlet manifold etc.
I see the camshafs sensor and crank sensor is different.. what to do? Is this hopeless?
Hope someone can seriously help..
