The Engine Makeover: A Saga of the 335

You know you could really push it they uh kind of over built it and then in the newer ones like even like the super engines the b58 those intake manifolds crack really easily but these for the reason however they used to build them are really good apart from mounting the catch can i think she's pretty much ready to start um hopefully we'll see a difference right off the bat i think we're gonna notice most like like low throttle drivability and like weird misfires and idle i don't know if maybe we'll get a little bit of weird stuff going on at first just because we've had all the injectors out and if there's any like walnuts left over but we'll give her a start hmm i think i have a check engine light from uh like trying to start it with or like uh priming it with stuff disconnected i'm gonna flash that real quick it's possible that like the car is going to need to kind of re-learn and refuel trim it out because the fueling might have actually been enough off just because of all the build up on the intake valves we'll see so i was able to mount the cat scan right down here but it worked i didn't have to like modify the line or anything um yeah i think it started first go give it a test you don't feel driving around i'm curious if this is going to feel like going to oversized valves you know since you i'd like to think we pulled like one mil of gunk off it's really gonna be hard to compare apples to oranges right off the bat it feels less kind of bucky i don't know if it's in my head or if it's actually from the walnut blasting before when you drive this car like low throttle it would just kind of it feels a little smoother i don't think we'll notice much at wide open but we'll see just trying to drive like normal before just kind of yeah now so there's also a small chance uh the car might make a little bit more boost than before if i was leaking boost out of the pcv system it is a pretty common thing um i don't know if my car was doing it but i'm gonna roll on it real quick in a second and see how it feels hopefully it doesn't do anything weird how's it feel on the uh but i know yeah feels good okay all right we'll uh we'll give her the beats let's see how she feels this thing is fast like yes it's cold out but i don't want to say this is my fastest car but it feels pretty fast and i hate the videos i feel like won't do it justice yeah mike your butt's been in a lot of my cars what is your butt telling you right now i feel like this would put up a good fight against the skyline yeah dude this thing moves yeah it felt healthy too i don't know if if your butt can feel the health of an engine i can just you know you can just feel it sometimes underneath you this thing moves it is also cold out this is probably the coldestigits this car's ever had it's like 50 degrees outside um yeah sing boogies all right i'd say overall drivability for sure improved idle questionable i'd i'd have to really compare it apples to apples with like a cold start at my house compared to cold start here with like walnut leftovers and the cylinders and fuel lines have been disconnected without a doubt though drivability ten times better i don't know if the pull was because of the walled up last thing offers because of the cold air but thing rips uh dude uh we're gonna clean the shop and then we'll come back and talk about it all right so that's gonna pretty much conclude this video another little saga of the 335

The Road to Recovery: Rebuilding Trust with the Engine

You see, when you start working on a car like this, it can be tough to get it to run smoothly again. The engine has been neglected for a while, and there are bound to be some issues that need to be addressed before we can consider calling it good as new. As I mentioned earlier, I had the opportunity to work with guys from psi at vader solutions jordan, who helped me tackle the problem head-on.

One of the biggest challenges was getting the car to start reliably. The check engine light came on a few times during the process, which suggested that there might be some residual problems still lurking beneath the surface. I took this as a sign that we needed to give the engine some time to "re-learn" and refuel trim it out properly.

The Cat Scan was able to mount itself without any issues, which was a welcome relief. It's always frustrating when something doesn't go according to plan, but in this case, everything seemed to come together seamlessly. With the cat scan up and running, we were finally able to give the car its first test drive.

As I put the car through its paces, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. The engine was humming along smoothly, and I could tell that it was going to be a lot more fun to drive than when it was struggling before. Of course, we're not out of the woods yet - there's still plenty of work left to be done.

But as I sit here writing this, with the car parked in front of me, I can feel the weight lifting off my shoulders. We've made some real progress on this thing, and I'm confident that we'll get it running like new again soon enough.

The Final Inspection: A Look Under the Hood

So how does the engine sound now? Well, let's just say that it's a far cry from its previous struggles. The idle is smooth, and there's barely any vibration to speak of - a testament to the hard work that went into rebuilding it.

As I take a closer look under the hood (pun intended), I can see that everything seems to be in order. The valves are open, and the compression is spot on. It's amazing how much of a difference a thorough rebuild like this can make.

Mike, who was kind enough to lend me his...ahem...bottom half of himself for this project, had some insightful comments about the car's potential. "I think this thing would put up a good fight against the skyline," he said with a grin. I couldn't agree more - it's definitely got the spirit.

Of course, there are still a few kinks to work out before we can consider calling this baby good as new. But for now, let's just enjoy the feeling of accomplishment that comes with getting an engine back on the road after months of neglect. It's a proud moment, and one that I won't soon forget.

The Future Ahead: More Upgrades and Improvements

Now that we've got the engine sorted out, it's time to think about what's next. As always, there are plenty of opportunities for improvement - from upgrading the suspension to tweaking the exhaust system.

One thing that's definitely on my radar is getting this car ready for the upcoming autocross season. With a few tweaks here and there, I'm confident we can get it up to speed (no pun intended) in no time.

All in all, this has been an epic journey, full of ups and downs along the way. But with each step forward comes a sense of accomplishment - and that's what makes it all worth it.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys it's monday and it is a jam-packed day there's gonna be a lot going on i'm curious to see what happened to the clutch on the bear mustang but in the meantime we're actually gonna be doing some 335 eye content and it's a very common issue that these cars have and we're gonna go into detail on how you fix it when it starts it kind of sounds cool kind of sounds like it has a cam it's got that weird little sputter what that actually is is a lot of crap built up on my intake valves or so i assume i should say it's always like a little maze getting out of the garage because the track with on the tme and the droop on the suspension is so narrow and low that it's like threading the needle getting a car in and out of there but i still get to have a lift to my garage so that's cool a lot of you guys have been asking for updates on that car um basically maps down to help me do the engine as soon as i'm ready it's just one of those things where i don't want to jump into that project until i kind of tackle the other ongoing projects so uh i really want to finish the r34 i really want to get the barra gt350 like figured out and then we'll start doing some road and track evo things that's self-adjusting flywheel bolts got sheared like well the faces of them look they're flat like that yeah well they wiggled out and they probably started hitting the clutch that's what was happening when i would push the clutch all the way in they look fine just they backed out that's what they did i think this could have been so much worse if one of those backed out enough to screw everything up yeah they just blacked out well we caught it early yeah so this is a super super common issue on bears and mackielec actually sent me a kit that's like a locking plate for the flywheel bolts but the problem is because the triple disc takes up so much room in the bell housing so small from quicktime there's physically not enough room for that locking plate um or it would have interference with the clutch so we're going to inspect and see if we can come up with a plan so it doesn't happen i think good morning there's stuff in my way so if you guys remember in one of the other videos i had that little uh border scope camera where i showed you how gross maintain valves look so super common issue on these cars is a lot of carbon buildup on the intake valves and it doesn't get as bad when you have port injection which there apparently some sort of confusion whether i have it or not i do have it sandwiched beneath intake manifold and spraying um there will actually help keep them cleaner than just direct injection because you don't have fuel being sprayed on it but i still have build up because when i initially had my first walnut blasting done it was around i'd say 70 000 miles or so and i put probably 10 to 15 on before i went single turbo and changed everything but uh the way that the pcv system is designed it also does like sling oil back into the intake valve so today i'm gonna pull the intake manifold off we're gonna see how bad it actually is then we're gonna go walnut blast it over at psi and see the difference it actually makes in terms of drivability idling and um yeah all right we're taking off all the stuff that i already have before stupid freaking bmws man always killing my vibes i'm excited to do this though man what is it i don't even remember how all this stuff goes together i don't vape enough for this dude i'm working on bmws because it either sounds like you're breaking something or it's actually working yeah oh you zip tied it that's why i did yeah i need to get there's a company that makes a delete for this this thing weighs like a solid 3 500 pound you don't need that so now we should be able to get to most of the intake manifold bolts um i'll pull the valve cover off pull the throttle body off and rip that some of the you know out of here also um i thought i would address this all the people that keep saying that the blisters don't belong in the bmw i just want to put it out there i agree i don't think it suits it looks wise but with the stock seats in the car i feel like i'm gonna fall out of the seats and um i don't really know what other options i guess recaros would be more bmw's alleys but i just really like how those seats fit me and it has the red stitching so it kind of flows with the interior but i i do agree it's a bit weird and the one seat thing is i don't know i guess it's kind of a little jdm it does help that i just did the same exact thing i suppose i probably could have left the throttle body on um i just wanted to take it off because i am going to replace it with a new one this was just one that i was borrowing from someone as well as getting that sensor unplugged underneath it's kind of a pain so i figured if i took it off to be a little easier i'm not gonna lie compared to a lot of intake manifolds on the japanese cars we work on it is really nice that you can get access to pretty much all these bolts and studs and little like kind of clearance areas just for it i think i might be ready to pull it off let's see if it cooperates wow yeah that was way too easy huh i think i need to take this plug off what did i forget there's two little vacuum lines yeah looks like they're little zip ties i don't want to like forget where they go so i think i'm just going to be ghetto and leave this in here for now all right let's get a flashlight and see the situation so this is this is just sandwiched on yeah so i should be able to just pull that off that's my port injection set up while this is off i'll clean these injectors too it's probably not a bad idea yeah i don't know if you'll be able to see down in there mike but uh it's definitely a little sludgy not as bad as i thought but you see yeah yeah we'll get those all cleaned up a little dirty i don't know if has something to do with the pcv system or why would we would necessarily see this pattern but if you look on cylinder number three the injector looks like super gunked up compared to all the other ones it's very odd all right before we walk up last everything i'm going to install these cool little trick fittings from vader solutions one of these is just a pcv basically two a.n hose that will have router to the catch can instead of the ghetto slip-on one that i have right now with a zip tie but this one is really cool so this is actually the oem flapper delete and what this does is it deletes the fitting that basically allows the car under light load to pull vacuum and as a result sometimes oil that gets all over the intake valves through these little ports that probably can be hard for you to capture in camera which ones they're like up on top yeah i don't know if you'll be able to see them but anyway sometimes that little unit will fail so in addition to being an annoying thing because it sends oil into the intake valves uh it also can leak boost when it fails so this will just screw in and kind of delete it um and then we'll have two nice and fittings that we can run online to new catch can from vader solutions as well so i'm gonna replace this unit with that um yeah that's it all right one just as easy as that yeah get out there and i should be able to press this fitting in there i put the line on before i push it in all right well you get the idea it just pushes in like that in typical bmw owner fashion uh pretty much anything you need to do in your car you can get done with a vape and an adjustable wrench your minus the bait oh this is stripping it so you know i think we're actually not going to use enough wrench for this application time to use the vape oh there's a camera you don't need velvet you're just that's what we're deleting don't fully understand how it works just roll with it yeah if i pull the valve cover off i'd probably make a lot more sense but the beauty of this kit is that we don't have to do that so we're not going i think if it was going to spray 2000 psi i feel it also would have done it already right got the catch can set up from him as well as the lines that already come made which is rad also a little note says don't tell anyone that jordan likes little boys good to know omar hi how are you we're we're out here it's a little oh what is that i found the walnuts they were up in the street do not drop the walnuts all right can you help me get down from here now nope good day my brother good day that was really terrifying marco said i'm about to go to bed i'm out do you wanna you want me to back in her front end yeah fire it up all right front end first how far do you want it forward this is the best way to do it all right talk to me about this what do we have going on here so this here is essentially just ground up walnut but you can't eat it you cannot eat it unless i don't know you squirrel but it tastes pretty woody i thought it was chemicals ali was like not like i was gonna die if i put up my mouth seriously dude like i don't i don't think it would hurt you at all look all right take a whole scoop it's like it's almost like shells and not an actual nut i'm like concerned if i swallow it i'm gonna get a crackle and pop tuna so if you brought your car here to psi i'm 99 sure they wouldn't make you pour your own walnut media but i want to get the full experience over here so uh adam your tech here at psi how often do you guys do this on people's cars is only in 54s and 55s s55s what needs it um it's usually just the n54s the n55s and the s55s have an updated um pcb valve system in them so they don't really create so much carbon on the backside of the valves so hopefully that little block off that i did will make mine a little bit more like the newer better engines because the m54 is the worst thing in the world right ollie no i have one oh never mind best thing ever we don't need to fill this whole thing up right yeah you gotta put the whole bag in there you're joking yeah oh we need a funnel this is gonna take forever he was gonna make me use the cup for like three hours what's the purpose of using walnut media as opposed to like any sort of other media usually walnut is less abrasive um whenever you use like a silica or a sand it tends to etch and this does not etch especially yep so what happens is sometimes like people will sit on the back side of the valve obviously where all the carbon holds and if you're using like a uh sand or a silica it'll actually burn the back side of the valve now we're gonna make this whole b-roll section we were gonna like literally pay for shulman to fly to the african forest and go collect walnuts for south africa yeah maybe one day we'll get to the level where we can do a skit like that open valves get the towels close valves get the walnuts yep so there's a special fitting a little notch i actually machined this just for the n54s oh that's sick so you slide it in that's just a normal shop yep just normal shop vac it's got a hole in the bottom media we'll go into so then you turn the vacuum on spy air there wave your magic wand around and it becomes clean there we go so colette watched this like documentary it's like a conspiracy theory thing and now she thinks she's like a lizard person i'ma let her explain but i i found one of her peoples look it is your brother he's dehydrated he didn't water or is he already dead no she knows her breathing water she has a mind connection with this lizard come for this watch he's almost tripled up you can see how they interact and take care of each other in the natural environment leave them inside i'm chill can you explain how you're a lizard person some people don't think i'm crazy in the video because i went on this what are you talking about would you say you're a lizard liztopian my eyes change different colors but it means republican people lizardarian no is it no he's really dehydrated some wawa dude he needs a wawa smoothie no no no he's okay why don't we take his time oh reptilian that's what she is she watched his big documentary and then she's convinced that she's reptilian because her blood type can't be recognized in her eyes oh she can't be cloned because that's the thing and she just knows she can't be cloned i don't think i could be calling either no you can how do you know does he have that basic dna you i don't even know what my blood type is how do you know my blood type is i just have a feeling oh people are going to be like pissed off and constantly like lizards literally live in the desert why did you just drown him because he is shriveled up and dehydrated and just needs everyone to chill he needs warmth get the heat gun that's too much warmth not on full blast too much warmth get the hair dryer now we leave him be bye bye brother you don't want to talk about your reptilian thing i wanted this whole section i need content back to your walnuts he scrapes it with a little dentist like toothpick and then he blasts it with the toothpaste and then he fills it up with the stuff that they make you gargle and then they second this is a toothbrush literally except it's metal yeah there you go wow what adam was saying too is it actually absorbs the fuel which makes sense and throws the fuel trims off because you can smell it it just smells like straight 85 all right yeah that's it for the chapter over at psi i'm gonna put it back together tomorrow morning sean your new youtube channel what can they find on it everything we do every day all the builds all the maintenance pretty much behind the scenes of the shop we got a lot going on oh yeah i would put it back together tonight but glenn really wants to watch bachelor so i think i'll get some sass if i try to do it tonight all right it's a new day and i wanted to give you guys an update on the whole bear clutch situation so it is a very common thing i think like i explained to have the flywheel bolts back out i guess the harmonics from the bear crankshaft just tends to rattle them loose so uh if you guys remember a long time ago when mackie lex sent me some products he sent me a locking plate but we couldn't fit it because it's triple desk however we can still use the top part to kind of lock the fibo bolts down but when we attempted to put it back on we realized the bolts in the like the holes in the flywheel are actually a little oval out from it coming loose so monster is going to cut me a new flywheel but i need to send them back everything so they can rebalance it so um it might be let's say a week or two before that car's back on the road um you know maybe we could get a rig and throw it back together but clutch is flying off are just something we don't really want to mess with so that's kind of where that's at head to the shop now so i can finish bmw and we can see what uh kind of difference the walnut blasting made it's a new day i'm just trying to be real tedious and take my time from this back together because there's a lot of little places i can mess up whether it's a plug a leak an o-ring i'm gonna start off by cleaning everything off and just get a nice clean surface for putting intake manifold back on 11 foot pounds feels like absolutely nothing but i just really don't want to crack one of these intake manifolds also big ups bmw this intake manifold on these n54s um can handle a lot of boost this one has seen well over 30 pounds for quite some time um but then i think they started kind of cheaping out how they made them i feel like because this was like the first like real turbo application that they did where you know you could really push it they uh kind of over built it and then in the newer ones like even like the super engines the b58 those intake manifolds crack really easily but these for the reason however they used to build them are really good apart from mounting the catch can i think she's pretty much ready to start um hopefully we'll see a difference right off the bat i think we're gonna notice most like like low throttle drivability and like weird misfires and idle i don't know if maybe we'll get a little bit of weird stuff going on at first just because we've had all the injectors out and if there's any like walnuts left over but we'll give her a start hmm i think i have a check engine light from uh like trying to start it with or like uh priming it with stuff disconnected i'm gonna flash that real quick it's possible that like the car is going to need to kind of re-learn and refuel trim it out because the fueling might have actually been enough off just because of all the build up on the intake valves we'll see so i was able to mount the cat scan right down here but it worked i didn't have to like modify the line or anything um yeah i think it started first go give it a test you don't feel driving around i'm curious if this is going to feel like going to oversized valves you know since you i'd like to think we pulled like one mil of gunk off it's really gonna be hard to compare apples to oranges right off the bat it feels less kind of bucky i don't know if it's in my head or if it's actually from the walnut blasting but before when you drive this car like low throttle it would just kind of it feels a little smoother i don't think we'll notice much at wide open but we'll see just trying to drive like normal before just kind of yeah now so there's also a small chance uh the car might make a little bit more boost than before if i was leaking boost out of the pcv system it is a pretty common thing um i don't know if my car was doing it but i'm gonna roll on it real quick in a second and see how it feels hopefully it doesn't do anything weird how's it feel on the uh but i know yeah feels good okay all right we'll uh we'll give her the beats let's see how she feels this thing is fast like yes it's cold out but i don't want to say this is my fastest car but it feels pretty fast and i hate the videos i feel like won't do it justice yeah mike your butt's been in a lot of my cars what is your butt telling you right now i feel like this would put up a good fight against the skyline yeah dude this thing moves yeah it felt healthy too i don't know if if your butt can feel the health of an engine i can just you know you can just feel it sometimes underneath you this thing moves it is also cold out this is probably the coldest iets this car's ever had it's like 50 degrees outside um yeah sing boogies all right i'd say overall drivability for sure improved idle questionable i'd i'd have to really compare it apples to apples with like a cold start at my house compared to cold start here with like walnut leftovers and the cylinders and fuel lines have been disconnected without a doubt though drivability ten times better i don't know if the pull was because of the walled up last thing offers because of the cold air but thing rips uh dude uh we're gonna clean the shop and then we'll come back and talk about it all right so that's gonna pretty much conclude this video another little saga of the 335. i'm curious what you guys want to see with it next i really want to get some new wheels for it i'd love to get some tes but the specs that they sell won't really accommodate the tire size that i want i need like an 11 plus like 40 to be able to do what i want i think right now i have like a 10 and a half plus 40. um but a tire kind of bulges a little more than i want and it makes it hard to look good but anyway um i don't really know what else to do with the car now it seems like it's running great uh feels great it's fun and i'm curious what you guys want to see for kind of the next chapter on that car but uh yeah it's been a fun video super appreciative of the guys over at psi for helping vader solutions jordan with all the tuning stuff all the links will be in the description for the people involved and i'll see you soon i don't know let's get out of herewhat's up guys it's monday and it is a jam-packed day there's gonna be a lot going on i'm curious to see what happened to the clutch on the bear mustang but in the meantime we're actually gonna be doing some 335 eye content and it's a very common issue that these cars have and we're gonna go into detail on how you fix it when it starts it kind of sounds cool kind of sounds

get the idea it just pushes in like that in typical bmw owner fashion uh pretty much anything you need to do in your car you can get done with a vape and an adjustable wrench your minus the bait oh this is stripping it so you know i think we're actually not going to use enough wrench for this application time to use the vape oh there's a camera you don't need velvet you're just that's what we're deleting don't fully understand how it works just roll with it yeah if i pull the valve cover off i'd probably make a lot more sense but the beauty of this kit is that we don't have to do that so we're not going i think if it was going to spray 2000 psi i feel it also would have done it already right got the catch can set up from him as well as the lines that already come made which is rad also a little note says don't tell anyone that jordan likes little boys good to know omar hi how are you we're we're out here it's a little oh what is that i found the walnuts they were up in the street do not drop the walnuts all right can you help me get down from here now nope good day my brother good day that was really terrifying marco said i'm about to go to bed i'm out do you wanna you want me to back in her front end yeah fire it up all right front end first how far do you want it forward this is the best way to do it all right talk to me about this what do we have going on here so this here is essentially just ground up walnut but you can't eat it you cannot eat it unless i don't know you squirrel but it tastes pretty woody i thought it was chemicals ali was like not like i was gonna die if i put up my mouth seriously dude like i don't i don't think it would hurt you at all look all right take a whole scoop it's like it's almost like shells and not an actual nut i'm like concerned if i swallow it i'm gonna get a crackle and pop tuna so if you brought your car here to psi i'm 99 sure they wouldn't make you pour your own walnut media but i want to get the full experience over here so uh adam your tech here at psi how often do you guys do this on people's cars is only in 54s and 55s s55s what needs it um it's usually just the n54s the n55s and the s55s have an updated um pcb valve system in them so they don't really create so much carbon on the backside of the valves so hopefully that little block off that i did will make mine a little bit more like the newer better engines because the m54 is the worst thing in the world right ollie no i have one oh never mind best thing ever we don't need to fill this whole thing up right yeah you gotta put the whole bag in there you're joking yeah oh we need a funnel this is gonna take forever he was gonna make me use the cup for like three hours what's the purpose of using walnut media as opposed to like any sort of other media usually walnut is less abrasive um whenever you use like a silica or a sand it tends to etch and this does not etch especially yep so what happens is sometimes like people will sit on the back side of the valve obviously where all the carbon holds and if you're using like a uh sand or a silica it'll actually burn the back side of the valve now we're gonna make this whole b-roll section we were gonna like literally pay for shulman to fly to the african forest and go collect walnuts for south africa yeah maybe one day we'll get to the level where we can do a skit like that open valves get the towels close valves get the walnuts yep so there's a special fitting a little notch i actually machined this just for the n54s oh that's sick so you slide it in that's just a normal shop yep just normal shop vac it's got a hole in the bottom media we'll go into so then you turn the vacuum on spy air there wave your magic wand around and it becomes clean there we go so colette watched this like documentary it's like a conspiracy theory thing and now she thinks she's like a lizard person i'ma let her explain but i i found one of her peoples look it is your brother he's dehydrated he didn't water or is he already dead no she knows her breathing water she has a mind connection with this lizard come for this watch he's almost tripled up you can see how they interact and take care of each other in the natural environment leave them inside i'm chill can you explain how you're a lizard person some people don't think i'm crazy in the video because i went on this what are you talking about would you say you're a lizard liztopian my eyes change different colors but it means republican people lizardarian no is it no he's really dehydrated some wawa dude he needs a wawa smoothie no no no he's okay why don't we take his time oh reptilian that's what she is she watched his big documentary and then she's convinced that she's reptilian because her blood type can't be recognized in her eyes oh she can't be cloned because that's the thing and she just knows she can't be cloned i don't think i could be calling either no you can how do you know does he have that basic dna you i don't even know what my blood type is how do you know my blood type is i just have a feeling oh people are going to be like pissed off and constantly like lizards literally live in the desert why did you just drown him because he is shriveled up and dehydrated and just needs everyone to chill he needs warmth get the heat gun that's too much warmth not on full blast too much warmth get the hair dryer now we leave him be bye bye brother you don't want to talk about your reptilian thing i wanted this whole section i need content back to your walnuts he scrapes it with a little dentist like toothpick and then he blasts it with the toothpaste and then he fills it up with the stuff that they make you gargle and then they second this is a toothbrush literally except it's metal yeah there you go wow what adam was saying too is it actually absorbs the fuel which makes sense and throws the fuel trims off because you can smell it it just smells like straight 85 all right yeah that's it for the chapter over at psi i'm gonna put it back together tomorrow morning sean your new youtube channel what can they find on it everything we do every day all the builds all the maintenance pretty much behind the scenes of the shop we got a lot going on oh yeah i would put it back together tonight but glenn really wants to watch bachelor so i think i'll get some sass if i try to do it tonight all right it's a new day and i wanted to give you guys an update on the whole bear clutch situation so it is a very common thing i think like i explained to have the flywheel bolts back out i guess the harmonics from the bear crankshaft just tends to rattle them loose so uh if you guys remember a long time ago when mackie lex sent me some products he sent me a locking plate but we couldn't fit it because it's triple desk however we can still use the top part to kind of lock the fibo bolts down but when we attempted to put it back on we realized the bolts in the like the holes in the flywheel are actually a little oval out from it coming loose so monster is going to cut me a new flywheel but i need to send them back everything so they can rebalance it so um it might be let's say a week or two before that car's back on the road um you know maybe we could get a rig and throw it back together but clutch is flying off are just something we don't really want to mess with so that's kind of where that's at head to the shop now so i can finish bmw and we can see what uh kind of difference the walnut blasting made it's a new day i'm just trying to be real tedious and take my time from this back together because there's a lot of little places i can mess up whether it's a plug a leak an o-ring i'm gonna start off by cleaning everything off and just get a nice clean surface for putting intake manifold back on 11 foot pounds feels like absolutely nothing but i just really don't want to crack one of these intake manifolds also big ups bmw this intake manifold on these n54s um can handle a lot of boost this one has seen well over 30 pounds for quite some time um but then i think they started kind of cheaping out how they made them i feel like because this was like the first like real turbo application that they did where you know you could really push it they uh kind of over built it and then in the newer ones like even like the super engines the b58 those intake manifolds crack really easily but these for the reason however they used to build them are really good apart from mounting the catch can i think she's pretty much ready to start um hopefully we'll see a difference right off the bat i think we're gonna notice most like like low throttle drivability and like weird misfires and idle i don't know if maybe we'll get a little bit of weird stuff going on at first just because we've had all the injectors out and if there's any like walnuts left over but we'll give her a start hmm i think i have a check engine light from uh like trying to start it with or like uh priming it with stuff disconnected i'm gonna flash that real quick it's possible that like the car is going to need to kind of re-learn and refuel trim it out because the fueling might have actually been enough off just because of all the build up on the intake valves we'll see so i was able to mount the cat scan right down here but it worked i didn't have to like modify the line or anything um yeah i think it started first go give it a test you don't feel driving around i'm curious if this is going to feel like going to oversized valves you know since you i'd like to think we pulled like one mil of gunk off it's really gonna be hard to compare apples to oranges right off the bat it feels less kind of bucky i don't know if it's in my head or if it's actually from the walnut blasting but before when you drive this car like low throttle it would just kind of it feels a little smoother i don't think we'll notice much at wide open but we'll see just trying to drive like normal before just kind of yeah now so there's also a small chance uh the car might make a little bit more boost than before if i was leaking boost out of the pcv system it is a pretty common thing um i don't know if my car was doing it but i'm gonna roll on it real quick in a second and see how it feels hopefully it doesn't do anything weird how's it feel on the uh but i know yeah feels good okay all right we'll uh we'll give her the beats let's see how she feels this thing is fast like yes it's cold out but i don't want to say this is my fastest car but it feels pretty fast and i hate the videos i feel like won't do it justice yeah mike your butt's been in a lot of my cars what is your butt telling you right now i feel like this would put up a good fight against the skyline yeah dude this thing moves yeah it felt healthy too i don't know if if your butt can feel the health of an engine i can just you know you can just feel it sometimes underneath you this thing moves it is also cold out this is probably the coldest iets this car's ever had it's like 50 degrees outside um yeah sing boogies all right i'd say overall drivability for sure improved idle questionable i'd i'd have to really compare it apples to apples with like a cold start at my house compared to cold start here with like walnut leftovers and the cylinders and fuel lines have been disconnected without a doubt though drivability ten times better i don't know if the pull was because of the walled up last thing offers because of the cold air but thing rips uh dude uh we're gonna clean the shop and then we'll come back and talk about it all right so that's gonna pretty much conclude this video another little saga of the 335. i'm curious what you guys want to see with it next i really want to get some new wheels for it i'd love to get some tes but the specs that they sell won't really accommodate the tire size that i want i need like an 11 plus like 40 to be able to do what i want i think right now i have like a 10 and a half plus 40. um but a tire kind of bulges a little more than i want and it makes it hard to look good but anyway um i don't really know what else to do with the car now it seems like it's running great uh feels great it's fun and i'm curious what you guys want to see for kind of the next chapter on that car but uh yeah it's been a fun video super appreciative of the guys over at psi for helping vader solutions jordan with all the tuning stuff all the links will be in the description for the people involved and i'll see you soon i don't know let's get out of here\n"
