  • Will it run? Very rare abandoned BMW Alpina B10 4.6 V8 that has not run for almost a decade. Can we get it running and riving? or was it parked up with a major fault?

    When jumping an E39 you should connect it under the bonnet not in the boot. The jump connections are under the bonnet so that they are as close as possible to a. the starter and b. the electronics.
    There is also another sender unit in the left-hand lobe of the fuel tank (the fuel tank straddles the prop shaft).

    You guys should invest in an endoscope. You could have looked inside the tank of this car and inside the engine of the Range Rover (or was it a Land Rover) to see if it was damaged without pulling the head off it. It will save you so much time and they aren't that dear anymore.
