Running Like A DREAM! Tune Up on my $2500 1984 BMW E30 318i!

Welcome back to another day off. This episode we are tearing into my 1984 BMW E30 318i with the M10 Engine. We are finally getting into replacing some parts. We start out with replacing the starter, fuel filter, and air filter. Then we move over to the ignition system, I removed the distributor, replaced the faulty vacuum advance diaphragm, and also show how I diagnosed it with the Autoline Pro Ventus Smoke Machine. I then replaced the distributor cap, and rotor, and teach myself how to set ignition timing. After that we replaced the spark plugs, and plug wires. We also replaced the vacuum hose from the IACV, as well as the elbow, and we did a special E30 trick to bring the idle back down, and it only cost 5 cents! LOL! This thing is driving like a dream, and it is a night and day difference from the beginning of the video.
I hope you all enjoy. Don’t forget to comment and leave me some feedback. I read and reply to every single one!
