Dang fuel injectors and stupid me!
Discussion
So I was one bolt away from thinking i had the 280i running. I tightened it. went to fire it up..and alas..it didnt start. So then it dawns on me...You idiot why didnt you clean out the injectors/lines and fuel distributor before you put it all back on the car. Sure enough, took apart the fuel distributor and it was siezed up. Purchased new o-rings (and by the way, those are so hard to find in the US i swear) and freed it all up with some lube and soaking it in brake cleaner...bolted it all back on..messed around for a day with it and still nothing. so now i'm taking the injectors out..appeared to me that only 2 injectors were actually spittin fuel and the other 4 werent. Hopefully I'll have it running by tonight...ooh the sound of it..drives me insane!!
When a car is sitting in a barn for 18 years, it seems logical to clean out the fuel system. Stupid me! haha
