And now where it sits at my dayjob workshop... unfortunately outside as i have other projects at the same time that take all the space in my personnal garage...
Interior is in really good shape for it's 225000 km... need a good cleaning to shine again bus seats covers are almost perfect.
So i'm currently in the process of restarting the car and it needed some attention...
28 year old fuel created some problem of course...
Fuel Tank full of goo from dryed fuel and rusted and missing fuel level sending unit (wich is my biggest problem at the moment) as the previous owned removed, destroyed and threw away
by the way it's oem ref is 16 12 111 4255 if anyone have one on his shelf...
Metering head piston blocked
Injectors Clogged and o-rings turned into hard plastic (Lots of fun moments to remove from the inlet
)
All the fuel lines fryed and cracking like glass
air hoses for the additional air valve too...
I found a good used Fuel tank as it was cheaper than the chemicals i needed to buy to try to refurbish the old one...
I ordered rebuild kits for the metering head, warm up regulator, a set of new injectors and all the paper joints, hoses and o-ring i could find for the inlet system...
Found a NOS fuel pressure accumulator, which i hope will work as it was missing too...
and now while i wait for these parts that come from all arond the world (hopefully fast) i guess i will finish to remove all the inlet system components and clean and prepare for reassembly.
Next step will be to remove the carpets as jack points are quite rusted and i want to have a proper look at the floor panels and sill panels so i cant bring my bodyshop guy and plan to treat... hopefully it will be only around the jack point and i will not need to do the sills... it's free to dream
