I use green too. And isnt It so nice to use oil and coolant that you can get from places besides the dealer/internet
For coolant just buy extra, then you have it ready to use

Bmw coolant is overrated and upcharged for sure!! Green coolant ftw

So you buy a gallon on the Internet for $23, distilled water for $1. It costs like $12 a gallon, (makes two gallons) what does the green stuff cost? $8 a gallon? Spend your remaining $8 on more crack.
Dan, car looks great as always. I don't think I'd have the patience to do what you've done outside in the rain. You're more manly than I

thanks, mitch, although i don't know if its patience or stubbornness.
and amen to green. have never seen any harmful effects from not using the BMW gold-impregnated stuff. i think brian hit the nail on the head. you have to order online, go buy distilled water, get a container to mix it in, blah blah blah what a bunch of time wasted when you can just go to the store down the street, grab the bottle and pour it in.

so if I leave the hood open and cap off the expansion tank, how much free snow can I get into the system instead of water?

You can buy BMW coolant at Oreilly's. It's Pentosin NF.

I had no idea there was so much dislike for coolant lol.
What's next on the to do list Dan?

Curious what the B40 intake will do to the power band, nice work as always Dan!
drove it 80 miles today, no leaks and runs like a top. it definitely moved the power band and i love it already. a little less low-end (the low-end only helps people who never rev it up with their automatics) but the power doesnt fall off till 5500-6000 which is perfect since redline is 6500.

when i took off my stock intake manifold, i heard a rattle inside so i had to investigate.
found out that the early m60b30 intake manifold has individual velocity stacks inside, just like the early m60b40 manifold. BMW later did away with them and did a simple curved mouth integrated into the manifold molding, obviously to reduce cost. the later b30 manifold i pulled off the parts car did not have the stacks.
