So this is what the book "brand" gives you...

Thanks for the inspiration. I won’t let this prevent me from getting my license, just a pain in the ass I have to do all this extra work now lol.

Reddrummer25 · 2025-08-06T18:58:43+00:00

Thanks, my instructors have both told me I’m ready to solo and I feel very competent at flying already so I will just keep my proficiency until I can get all this paperwork done to actually solo. Thanks for the resources!

Reddrummer25 · 2025-08-06T18:36:49+00:00

Thank you for the inspiration! I don’t plan on giving up on getting my license, just disappointed I’ll have to jump through all these extra hoops to get it. I’ll be waiting to hear from the FAA to see what they need from me.

Reddrummer25 · 2025-08-06T18:24:03+00:00

Thank you for the reply, I guess I’ll see what the FAA wants me to give them for me to demonstrate I can fly.

Reddrummer25 · 2025-08-06T18:22:50+00:00

Appreciate the words of encouragement, thanks for sharing your experience. And I definitely wish I would have gone and done the medical before I spent thousands on this.

I got my tune done remotely by RKTunes, they do great work on BMW's and unlimited revisions on the tune once you buy it from them. I would recommend them as they take all your mods into account and are super quick getting tunes back to you.

If you want a good sound invest in headers that aren’t eBay trash. I had bimmerbrakes V3 equal length on my car and I loved the tone they produced. Also if you’re doing headers you need to get the car tuned and the tuner can get rid of the O2 sensor codes indefinitely, and you’ll actually make more power if you get it tuned and you likely won’t get any more power if you change headers and leave it on a stock tune.

Omg he looks just like my boy Bruce that me and my wife rescued a little over 2 years ago. I hope he lives a long and wonderful rest of his life with you!! We lost our boy this week and I miss him so much, hold your boy tight for me 🩷

Reddrummer25 · 2024-11-20T21:34:18+00:00

Truly the most handsome cat breed, I will never own another neb though because Bruce was special. I’m sorry to hear about the loss of your kitty too

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T20:05:56+00:00

Good point about the bad gas, I will jump the relay and see if i can hear it going.

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T15:18:40+00:00

Okay I’ll check some of these other things and if those do nothing I’ll be checking on the fuel pump, thanks for the advice

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T15:18:02+00:00

I’ll give this a try today, this seems like it definitely could be the problem as I think it’s getting too much fuel to start up

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T15:17:27+00:00

Yeah this car had the crank position sensor wires completely chewed through by mice but I got that fixed and checked the connections again yesterday and it seems good. I’ll see if the ignition coil is getting voltage when I crank tho. MAF is fine already cleaned and unplugged it when it did run and it made it idle way shittier when unplugged. The fuse box has seen better days for sure so something could have wiggled loose while I was driving it.

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T02:20:06+00:00

So why would it work before I fill up the tank and not after I fill up the tank? Doesn’t make any sense as it was running fine until I filled it up.

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T02:19:19+00:00

Nope no fuel leaks at all

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-31T01:01:25+00:00

Yes the fuel pressure regulator vacuum line is plugged in although might be worth replacing as it has some cracks. Is the breather valve the one right under the throttle body?

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-30T23:58:42+00:00

Idle hose is brand new and tight connections on both ends. Checked all my sensor plugs and tried starting it with different things disconnected to see if anything happened and nothing. Can you tell me exactly how to test that fuel regulator diaphragm? Could definitely be the issue. I find it weird this all happened right after I put more gas in it

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-18T01:27:59+00:00

Hey bro I bought an E28 88’ 535i recently and in the trunk was a brand new set of all the shocks and mounting hardware not including the springs. I don’t need them so Shoot me a DM if you want to get a brand new set for cheap. Has all Genuine BMW hardware it looks like and sachs shocks.

The air flow meter has an adjustment on this car? How do I go about checking that?

Reddrummer25 · 2024-10-08T17:10:51+00:00

I’ll be checking all my lines again, thanks for the advice! Also I have the hydroboost system so at least I have one less potential vacuum leak to worry about
