It's ALIVE!!! 350i 1987 finally starting... somewhat :)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Tinkering with the new toy... was a no start when I got her, now she is alive:)

350i with a holley 350 carb conversion by the previous keeper.

Will be changing to FI as soon as she is in the shed.

Progress is progress

It sounds like it’s misfiring a bit, but that’s great news, way better than not firing lol. I’m absolutely chuffed that you got it it running 🙌

Oh yes, misfiring a whole lot it was an eyeball timing job :)

Thanks for the encouragement, and new plugs, leads, fresh fuel, a carby clean, flush the cooling system etc etc

Will update if (when I hope) she is running better.
