As a volunteer admin for another automotive discussion forum, I can tell you that not allowing guests to post wouldn't help with this problem. Anyone can join a forum with a few simple steps, and scammers are willing to expend that much effort.
It is worthwhile booting off people who post...
Madera Concepts in Goleta, California sells both the underlying wood and does veneering. I have used them in the past and have been pleased. Their website is: https://www.maderaconcepts.com/NewSite/VehiclePages/bmw_vehicles.html#BMW_3_0_CSi_CSL
The Harmon box you photographed says "Nominal impedance: 3.0 ohms", so wouldn't connecting two speakers in series give 6 ohms? And if that's what you are doing, where did you mount the second speaker?
Well, that's the "belt and suspenders" solution. Replacing both should address whatever symptoms you have, though I have to admit that I never fully understood your symptoms:
So I think you're saying that when all four bulbs are in the circuit (e.g., emergency flasher mode) everything works...
That interior does look beautiful, but don't even think of leaving it in the car while it's getting body & paint work. No amount of masking will protect it.
Other ebay sellers are offering Vasek Polak plate surrounds for much less, though I wonder if they are reproductions. This guy is offering them for $80, claims to have 31 available and to have sold 125 already. Either he's Vasek's long lost nephew, or they're being knocked out in 天都城...
If you do need to replace your alternator, an alternator out of an 80's era BMW will bolt in, eliminate the need for an external regulator and provide cleaner output. I have one in my coupe.
Another alternative is an expensive Delco alternator as discussed in this thread...
The failure of those two parts is a pretty common on e9's.
The hood torsion bar assembly can break or wear out in several ways. Fatigue where the arms weld to the tube is common. Can you have the arm re-welded back on (not easy, as the tubes have thin walls)? New tube-arm-torsion bar...
tdgray:
- Are you saying that your car now has sidedraft Webers, and that you don't have that linkage rod at all?
- Or that it has downdraft Webers, and has a straight rod (like the one Thomas76 shows in post #2)?
If the latter, that straight rod will work with your Zeniths, unless as...
Gosh, I never go more than 10 mph over the speed limit. I just stay in the left lane with my turn signals on, going 55 or so. :cool:
But why do all those limos headed for Sacramento at 85 mph keep giving me the finger?
I guess these 2.5's just needed less on the road fixin' than did their 2800 and 3.0 big brothers!
That dinky little toolbox just looks funny. And the screwdriver handle isn't even red!
Kidding aside, it does look like a decent example. Too bad someone took a can opener to its roof back in...
You should check out https://socalvintagebmw.com/ to learn about vintage BMW events here in southern California and connect with local, like-minded people. The 2024 events don't seem to be posted yet, but mark your calendar for June 2nd.
Those are the good adapters that position the stud at the center of the carburetor, which keeps the air cleaner in its original location. The more common JAM adapters offset it toward the rear, which can cause the air cleaner to interfere with the firewall & hood light.
They do list harnesses for e9's. Here's what I found on the site referenced by craterface:
1971 BMW [2800CS]
1. Engine and Headlight Harness 1627.00
2. Ignition Switch Harness 46.00
3. Dash, Body and Taillights Harness 2617.00
It wasn't clear to me if you would need all...
