Hello all

I have been restoring an early e23 for the past year and have finally managed to get it started but i am having problems with the idle. I have done my best to fix the problem but it still wont run properly and i wondered if anyone might know of a specialist BMW mechanic that works with these classics and would be willing to have a look at the car. I live in south Yorkshire near Doncaster so anyone around that area would be helpful.

regards Sean

I have a workshop near Mansfield and live in Sheffield. It's yonks since I looked at one of these with the original L Jetronic system but have some of the original tech bulletins. That one will probably have the fuel pump relay built into the air flow meter. 

I'm busy next week but after that will have some time to have a play with it.
