Thanks for the offer. Not sure I will be around on that date so I picked up one from ECS. Look forward to starting on the rear suspension once I get back from vacation. Until then more fun in my the sun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Ohh. I forgot. After the suspension and bushing overhaul. It will be time to remove the automatic in favor of the manual. So I’ll have to start doing some research on what is needed. Sounds like I should be favoring the E46 manual transmission. Any advice is welcomed.

Valve Cover Gasket Questions:
1) Can I get confirmation that I am missing the front wire and the bolt is wrong? Below is the rear with the correct wiring: ![]() Below is the front with just a bolt and no wiring. Worth noting that the front cylinder ignition coil was replaced. So maybe the technician forgot to install that added wiring back and instead replaced with a standard valve cover bolt? ![]() 2) What does this front wire do? Would I see positive effects once I put back on? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by Contracheatcode; Sat, Sep-29-2018 at 12:40:30 AM. |

There are supposed to be two ground straps, front and rear. Your suspicion was correct, Mike.
