I did the engine bay the same way by just taping things up instead of taking everything out. Looks good man

wired up the knock sensor and o2 sensor tonight.

it took me 6 different alternator belts but i finally cleared the frame rail. theres probably a few millimeters between the alternator pulley and the frame rail. i have about 1/4" on the tensioner that i could pull the alternator closer to the engine.


grinded off the rust and painted my headlights flat black

Looks nice. And like the Dakar Yellow on M3s, it looks very period-correct.

Check your grounds, especially near the thermostat. Also check the main relay. ECU throwing any codes?

car is running and driveable. it idles really low and surges and will eventually die if i dont feather the gas. i was able to drive it on the trailer though. just moved to ft worth yesterday. hoping i can get it running right so i can start cruising it.
