:lol:  
I didnt work on it Wednesday due to exhaustion and illness. I was in the driveway till 2am last night, and back at it again at 6am this morning and took a half day off work to work on it. Have the slave cylinder, exhaust, 02 sensor, fluids, a wheel bearing, and springs left to do. Gonna be down to the wire but I’m fairly confident.

The injectors are NOT firing, I believe it has something to do with the fact that the e36 formerly had compustar (GARBAGE) but I’m an alarm “hater”. I wish I had it at the track day, would’ve been more tire smoke during lunch 😉

I know you’re going to laugh when you find the problem. It will be something stupid…at least it usually is when it comes to wiring problems.
