Mine has the metal oil filter housing. It has something like the "bush" thing, but it's integral with the housing and only uses one O-ring. Is yours the plastic filter housing? Maybe it's a late...

I found this thread while doing some research. I did the continuity test he did from the coil pack connector to the DME. In my case I wasn't getting spark to #4. It was one of the transistors in the...

I'm about to do the oil filter housing gasket on my '95 31ti. I know I did this job before, probably less than three years ago. I don't remember if I used gasket sealant or not. Any suggestions? ...

Thanks for replying, I know this is an old thread. Glad to hear the repair was successful long-term.

Any advice for me? Did you use the resistors that come with the BIP373's? I think I'm...

Thanks, I've been looking into that. It seems like some people say if you keep your old chip, mine has a removable chip, that you can use a different DME. If I can fix this one with a $9 transistor...

Did you put in all four BIP373's? I have the same problem; one bad transistor not firing #4 and I'd like to do this to repair the DME rather than buy another and mess around with the EWS. Did you...

Thanks, but no oil in the spark plug wells. I changed the valve cover gasket about a year ago. I haven't checked the injectors yet. I took out the DME on the theory that it is not sending...

I did a stomp test this morning and came up with multiple 1271 codes, for coil. The 37 code I got from my Bav Auto scanner. The coil is brand new; what else could cause this code? I started it...

M42 coil fault code, not firing on #2

My '95 Ti started running on three cylinders two days ago. I took out the plugs and they looked OK, but Number 2 looked damp. I took off that plug wire and the engine ran the same, so I assumed it...

Pelican Parts stage two kit uses the Bilsteins. I'll have to consider that too. I think the originals were made by Sachs.
