In Reply to: Diff question.....sorry about 2x post posted by Rick G on February 08, 2001 at 20:11:37:


I have an '80 320i that overheated and I think warped the
cylinder head. I've been tols I have to depressurize the
fuel injection w/special tools, whereas I just planned to
try to take off injection manifold in the driveway like I
did for 32/36 carb conversion on my old 02 a few yrs ago.

Local shop wants $1100 which is more than I paid for car.

Is it unrealistic for a amateur such as I to think of doing such a task?? At least right now it RUNS. I don't wanna
end up with a driveway full of parts and regret...

Any help would be most welcome.

Thanks,
Rick Goodwin
