M44 engine problems So I recently picked up a 97 318ti the head gasket let go I found it rotted around cylinder two so I put it all back together and I'm having an issue with it idling the engine will not idle until it's warm it will just stall out I found the intake boots were ripped so I replaced both and the air hose for the injectors and the problem still continues I sprayed around the gaskets and could not find a leak also when it does idle it runs very choppy it sounds like it's got Honda idle my second problem is when I don't start the car for a few days it will not crank over I have to disconnect the battery and let it sit for a while sometimes over night before it will turn over I don't get it just need some insight. |
