Airlift kits for the e12...any of you guys have bags?

Hi
Been looking into fitting airlift to my e12, was just wondering if any of you guys have had a go at this?

Yeah seems the most logical way to do it, the 2 cylinders at the front have been done its just a matter of furthest brake etc, cheers for letting me know :)

Yeah it's a right hand drive dual cylinder set-up, never seen it before but doesn't seem too challenging. I've not got a Haynes manual so ill have to invest in one if it gives me any grief.

Bleeding the brakes on my 76' 520...

Hi, I've bled many a system before but I'm just a little unsure on the double master cylinder system on the e12. What's the best way to go about bleeding these as mine has had all the lines etc blown out and new seals etc etc as well as the master cyclised replaced.
Thanks
Arron

It defiantly looks factory fitted, the intake is a tad ropey but the rest looks legit. Gunna give the chassis number a bash tonight and email it off to one of those emails above see what I can find out about the car :D

From what I read and can see this doesn't look like the kugelfisher setup like that I've seen on the net? I can't see the pump that it shows on all the pictures of the kugelfisher engines in the 2002tii...?
Any ideas?

Aha! I was lead to believe it was an L-jetronic, I was wrong!
Yes it's an m10 and like you say a pretty rare beast!
Really appreciate the help, ill take a look at the parts that you have specified/ shown in the illustrations. I had read that it was the same as the 2000/2002 tii so ill get onto one ...

Fuelling problems on my 76' 520i...

Hi, I've just brought my e12 520i from a guy who found it locked up in a garage since 1989', it's had a good service but I'm having some problems with the fuelling side of things.
The car will start but it won't idol and if it stalls it will not re start and floods itself. I've been told this maybe ...
