  • Hey everyone,
    Today we are finally getting to work on the project E30. I have been waiting for this day for a while, so I am incredibly excited to get started on this build. It's always a fun day when you get to work on your new project for the first time. I gave the car my own inspection and came up with a whole collection of parts this car needs. In other words, we have a ton to do today.

    as someone who grew up with distributors and points, and caps and rotors, it's always fun to see people marvel at the simplicity of the system.
    coil packs and an actual EMS are better though.
    a slight correction, the little screw on caps on the spark plugs are called terminals, removing them gives you access to the threaded terminal studs. whether you use the terminal studs, or the threaded terminal studs is irrespective of the type of ignition system (distributor, coil, and wires, or individual coil packs), it is completely dependent on which terminal type the system is designed to accept.

    Thanks for a great video. I've recently purchased a BMW E30 325i Touring. Your video has given me the confidence to complete these tasks myself.

    Awesome video! I'm in the process of restoring an E30 convertible. Also, The upper radiator hose doesn't have a patch, its chafe protection for the airbox. I bought a new hose thinking the same thing.

    Just wanted to say thanks for putting these videos together. I’m considering an E30 for my next daily driver and this has given me so much confidence that it’ll be a good choice (provided I go with the right one from the outset) and that I can keep it running with minimal issues or trouble finding parts. Looking forward to getting caught up on these videos

    Love this! My daughter and I just bought a 325e coupe and we're going to go thru this like a checklist. Perfect for helping her (and me) learn about cars, BMW's specifically. Thx

    I have an 83 E21. Great video and voice over. One suggestion, use non-ethanol gas if available in your state. Your fuel supply system will thank you. It wasn't designed for ethanol.

    I really enjoy your videos. I own a TT Mk1 but love bmws. So i really look forward to this new project. Maybe the big gap in the engine is for some additional „air“ sssssstututututu. :o ;)

    • @HunterDirection
      @HunterDirection  Před rokem

      The big gap could definitely be used for that🤔 I'm stoked you're enjoying the new project! Thank you for the support!

    Nice E30 and voice overlay. Gotta try that style in my vids. . However Ur check engine light is probably not caused by the washer fluid 😅...must be something else..
