Got the tstat housing/radiator stuff wrapped up on Saturday and took it to the Dells for autox on Sunday. 1st of 3 in XS-B and 5/82 in raw time.
rained for our last heat which was honestly more fun than the dry heat.
car preformed awesome, just think I need to burp/bleed the rad some more. Have a bleed funnel thing showing up on Friday to help.
here’s my fastest run

I should’ve purchased this years ago

What is it??
Spill free coolant funnel. It has a little plunger so you can pour the excess coolant back into the jug, also allows for bleeding as well.

This was the one I bought:
EPAUTO Spill Proof Radiator... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I40ZQWE?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
cap threads on decent enough, but had to use a mix of the red adapter and the gasket from the factory bmw expansion tank cap.
the design of the expansion tank throat was really annoying and required this mix-match of pieces to get it to seal properly

I didn't even know those existed. My whole life...I've just been pouring it in like a moron.

Started poking at the s52. Ive never seen a valve cover gasket this bad lol. It was basically plastic. IMG_3557.MOV
good news is the top end looks super clean, so at least the oil was changed regularly
probably going to do a leak down test on this and figure out where I stand.

That's crazy, was any oil leaking?
The timing cover is heavily coated lol
