    GSXMEN Got Jesus?

    Got a call from my youngest brother about his '82 BMW 320i. They just replaced the fuel distribution unit (I believe that's what it was).....supposedly, it was bad. Problem is - it still won't run.

    From what I've heard, the car will start, but dies within 2 seconds. He also says, it seems to want to run when the key is in the start position. As soon as he lets it go back to the run position - it wants to die.

    Any thoughts on what they should look for? I know that's not a whole lot of detail....but, that's all I've heard.

    Thanks.:TU:

    Oilpressure switch
    Maybe a bad connector or they simply forgot to plug it in

    That was the problem on my old 525
