Hi all this is my first posting on this site.
My 1988 740GLE wagon with a 3rd row will not start...Well let me give you some background. One day While driving home from work I loose all power. I try to figure out what is wrong. I changed the fuel regulator, the coil, the distributer, the cap, the rotor, the plugs, the wires, the air flow meter, the fuel management relay,the complete exhaust system, while I was at it I changed the complete braking system. Oh yes I forgot the battery, the alternator and the oil pressure switch and the timing chain as well as set the timing.
I have given up on this wagon because I have spent more money than I should have. And by these repairs have happened at first on my driveway and then it was towed to 3 different mechanics to find the problem...Its over!
So now I think I will take it apart and sell all the parts to other 740 owners that need them.
So if that is you and you need parts or you think you know what the problem is then email me at euroranch@rogers.com
