Re: M88/3 Temp Gauge, High Idle and Fuel Mixture Fun

The temp gauge not working is part of the problem. A bad fan clutch causes high engine coolant temps, in turn the ecu dumps more fuel causing rich conditions. Symptoms = cold starts easy and hot starts difficult. Prolonged rich conditions damage o2 censors causing rough idle. one of many possibiliti...

Re: 3/82 633csi Fuel pump relay

or 002.

after a bit much more research, i was wrong about my 6 coming with a 002 dmu. They were specifically for early euro 6ers. supposedly the 008 is what i need. which means i might have a bad ecu or something else i dont know of yet.... more research and tests underway
