DTMPower BMW Forum - E30 3-series and prior http://www.dtmpower.net/forum (1975-1991) The E30 coupe, sedan, and convertible and the classic E21 3-series were unforgettable as the first and second versions of BMWs most popular 3-series model. en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:07:18 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/images/misc/rss.jpg DTMPower BMW Forum - E30 3-series and prior http://www.dtmpower.net/forum Jetronic motor into Motronic car... http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/showthread.php?t=188965&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:47:31 GMT Gentlemen,

My 86 C2 2.7 Alpina was recently assaulted by a volvo wagon running a stop sign tragically bending the rear end... So I've bought a 90 325is to take some of the good bits from the recently deceased C2 and bring it back to life, namely the engine and other tasty bits.. The only difficulty is that the alpina motor is an earlier jetronic model. Both engines have big throttle bodies etc. How hard is it to basically convert the alpina motor to motronic? Using donor car parts from 325 or bits from wrecker..

Don't need to be rewiring car as the 90 325is is already motronic obviously.. We do need to get the best bits of both and make the alpina engine motronic.. What are the issues involved? Do injectors need to be changed? Is it just a case of attaching motronic distributor or whatever it is to the front of the motor and not the side? Any voltage, sensor, engine mount or other ancilliary issues? Would throttle bodies be at all different?

Bearing in mind the M20B25 is in very good nick also.. so what parts from wreckers are required if not cannibalising this engine? Any technical and pictorial help greatly appreciated.. I'm a bit heartbroken @ the moment but determined to come out of this ahead....

The speakers play bits and pieces of the radio station but the radio never can keep a consistent signal. I have had the radio lock onto a station but when I started to move again it returned to the searching phase.

I also have a problem with the rear defogger switch not illuminating. It originally lit up but the button had a sticking problem so I switched it out. Would the color of the switch make any difference. I had originally had a orange back light and now have a green back light.

Everything else works well
On a side note would swapping out the non-illuminating with illuminating switches make them illuminate because I tried but didn't have any success. The illuminating switches do still roll the window down and up. ]]> E30 3-series and prior mc_alpinie http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/showthread.php?t=188898 Why is DTMPower a dead site? http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/showthread.php?t=188885&goto=newpost Wed, 28 Oct 2009 04:29:08 GMT Did the mods take off or something?
