b234 engine parts

barkster1971 · Oct 3rd, 2017, 19:09

Having just bought a complete 16v b234 engine with loom and ecu to drop in my 745 I could do with giving it a service while it's readily accessable on my engine stands. I am going to remove both balance shafts so don't need any parts for them.
It is an earlier manual tensioner engine. Where can I get a manual tensioner from and pulleys without it costing £300?
Thanks.

Hi
sounds about right
did you get the front cross member
because the motor mounts are different
I think you can cut one off and fab a new one
weld on if you remove the rack first

Go on, +T it while you are at it, and when you've done that tell me how you got oil feed to the turbo and oil return from the turbo!
