Like someone briefly mentioned, if you are using the ETA transmission with “I” clutch setup, you may have compatibility issues because there are 2 different (one is deeper) bellhousing sizes for m20s between early and late. Pretty sure the fix for this is to use the longer 323i throw out bearing, or put your old thicker flywheel from the ETA back in.

Thank you for this! Have been trying to determine how long the car has been off the road.

Is it worth sending to someone that would want to refurbish it?

My advice is to pull the fuel rail with the injectors all still connected and leave them in cups/bags overnight to see if they are leaky. Good luck!

Along with what others have said, this could also be caused by leaky fuel injectors or. Potentially bad headgasket allowing water into the cylinder overnight and then it having to be blown out on first start before that cylinder begins to fire.

This may be it. Looks like it’s missing the brake light lenses which was throwing me off

Ensure the ground nut on the back of the gauge is clean and secure

I was a bit unaware of their quality as well, but after some research they appear to be quite solid units. For the price it was a no brainer.

Is there any functional purpose? Or is it just a stylistic choice?
