[QUOTE="wolverine, post: 71583, member: 532"] Wow,I've missed da fun... :P beemervader, A running condition 525i E28 below RM4k is a good buy...I know a few forummers here searching at da price range. First, this is M30B25 engine wif 150BHP n 0-100kmh at 9.8s at ideal state. Normally, it is said 525i is a 520i wif added grunt. Yes,u will feel smoother ride if change ur plug cables 2 new 1s. Btw, it shouldn't hv cost more than RM300.Since ur plug cables r new, I pressume ur plugs r 2. 4 da rattle...check all ur vacuum hoses first.There shouldn't b any leaks, even a tiny one. Second,check ur AFM and ur CO level...it should b at 1.5... Third, fuel pump relay.This my friend, I've a spare.Mayb can test it out... Fourth, fuel pump regulator.There's another thread here which I've explained on how 2 check this unit. Fifth, air slide valve.It's very normal 4 this thing 2 kaput at this age. Sixth, throttle body.Service them. Regarding da fuel pump relay, play wif da thick red cable n see how engine behaves...most of the times,it's just loose contact. And the gadget...I believe it's da TDC sensor.Dont worry,this unit either works 100% fine or it fails completely! Welcome 2 da world of wheeled sharks...fine tune dis machine n it would put a lot of newer cars to shame :nyehehe: Regards B) [/QUOTE]
