Re: [stag] Rotor Arm Advice - Long Rant

I had a problem with a bosch rotor arm years ago. The old one was hard plastic and looked very "professional" - ie, the conductor was brass, shaped and set into the hard plastic. Seeing it was hard...

Re: [stag] Rotor Arm Advice - Long Rant

Yes, I agree with Ken H. Around 2008, I bought several of the same Bosch rotor arms for M30 BMW engines, of which I had several. These were made by Bosch's subsidiary in Spain. The '84 E28 528i I put...

Re: RE: [stag] Idle Issue

This is all great info, and ALMOST makes things clear, but I think what we could all use is a good diagram showing the routing of the vacuum and vent lines. I've found diagrams that show the lines...

Re: [stag] Cooling

Stuart, When you say the gauge goes up to the 3/4 area do you know for sure that it is overheating? What I mean is have you checked the actual temperature of the engine? These Smiths gauges are not...

Re: [stag] Cooling

The FIRST thing I did with my Stag was fit a mechanical VDO temp gauge. As far as I am concerned C/H gauges are useless. How hot is hot? You could be worried about nothing. The full scale (270 or so...
