I'll let you know, my old ones were working but I will be going over the car with a multimeter this week to pin-point the problem.

How'd this go? I know we were talking earlier today about you doin' this.

[KaiserRolls]

upon startup, burnout is required..

[YoungCR]

I'm thinking I might need a dme as everything else on the ignition was replaced checked out electrically. Or I could have a bad ref/speed sensors. Either way I have no spark.

[YoungCR]

Finally got the new dme in the mail, plugged it in and she fired up instantly! Could not be happier now I just have a couple things to wrap up along with the interior and I should be driving a BMW again next week!

Hell yeah!

The M20 was just happy to see me. The DME had nothing to do with it.

Not tire hatred issues, it's a forum thing.

On the note of spinning tires, coming home today I was rounding a corner in 3rd at about 45mph(out in the country on a back road. Gave it a bit of gas to get back up to speed, ass end kicked out so goddamn hard. I got so giddy with glee. An then I got sad really fucking fast. Cop was behind me with his lights on. I didn't even try to drift. Oh well. Under $200 can't complain!
