I am not getting any fire throughout my 88 325i conv. even though it does turn over. I have replaced the coil and the white main relay but it did not help. I swapped (o2 & fuel) the other two relays in the mainengine relay box since they are the same type to see if that made a difference. is there any relays in the main fuse box that can cause it to not fire? I thought the ecu (computer) but a guy at the BMW shop told me it would probably still start if it was the ecu but would run terrible.
This car ran fine until my brother shorted pin 6 or 7 in the connection that looks like the diagnostics connection near the main fuse box (engine plug I think) and firewall. He should have been shorting pin 7 in the diag box to reset the service indicator.
Any good suggestions?
Can the ignition relay cause no fire? I thought if it was bad the car would not even turn over.
11/8/04 Tested again last night and not getting gas out of the main feeder line. so I guess no fuel and fire. going to try and new fuel relay tonight.
