e34 520I morning starting issues
It sounds like there is spark (it kiks up every so often ) but it seems
more like the computer doesn't tell the fuel pump to send fuel., but I am not a mechanic so i don't really know for sure, If I try for too long to start it with the crankshaft sensor plugged in the I started to smell gas in the winter but now I just unplug it ,start the car and plug it bak in (the crank-sensor)there's just too much goin on with the computer and vanos etc.. (I miss my old mercedes,over 340k miles on it and no probs) oh well the bimmer is a bit more fun to drive.......maybe its cuz i'm so feakin happy it actualy starded!... anyways bak to the subject...I removed the ecu(dme) today to try to see if there was maybe a bad connection but it all looks quite clean,however I couldn't open it to see if there was something wrong inside as I dont have the wright tool to open the box ,gonna try 2morrow to buy the right size key> BTW:I did try to go on that e34 website but I couldnt make an acct, for some reason there was a box with some text I was supposed to see but there was nothing there ,some sort of protection against automated enrollment...maybe its cuz I'm in sweden at the moment....
