i'm too exhausted to search http://www.m3forum.net/m3forum/images/smilies/frown.gif if theres a thread please link me.
just finished up my lifters/upper chain tensioner/upper chain/DrV stg2 install and everything sounds great. once the oil circulated up through the new tappets all the annoying racket is quiet. everything idles fine, maybe a little more lope then before. my timing may now be ~1 degree retarded, the TDC mark may have been a tiny bit off during the timing of the new vanos.
took it for a test drive and putting around everything feels amazing. sounds great, everythings smooth and even feels a bit more tourqey then before. when i get on it 1/3-1/2 throttle it picks up nicely and climbs for about 1k before theres an awful chain on metal sound and it stumbles hard. if i hold 1/4 throttle the revs will build smoothly up past 5k without issue its only if i give it a little boot. once i let off everything returns to normal.
any ideas? i'm fried and currently stumped. install was smooth as silk minus searching for missing bits http://www.m3forum.net/m3forum/images/smilies/facepalm.gif and everything was properly tq specd...
