mornin' all.
possibly sourced a bmw E39 525 M51 engine, reasonably local and "said" to be in good running order, within budget. (cheap as pos!)
so the question is, whats involved with the injector pump electronics?
could swap for the original pump, but that involves dicking around with the pump and cam timing, plus stripping it down far enough to do this.
price of gaskets, time to do, risk of cocking the timing up.
or
swap the top of the pump for the original electronics and leave the timing intact on donor engine. heard stories this potentially affects the fuel delivery and can be a twot to get the idle right?
need to do more research for this one.
ideally a p38 dse would be best, but have to go on whats available.
input appreciated!
cheers all!
