Love these motors, fantasizing about putting one in my E28 5er, but I imagine it would be much easier in an E34 5er due to the similarities with the E32 7er which of course had the M70 stock

sure by now you have lifted the carpet in left footwell, removed the speaker lower left and found the AC Compressor "Lockup" black box. having noticed the damage on the fuel pump fuses, in my opinion whilst welding up the sill jacking point directoly below the faktory jacking point round hole (covered on yours with metal plate) It was this unit that had fried wires.Resulting in the melting of the fuse holders for fuel pumps, AC fuse is right next to them!! That AC unit need the wiring changed a wee bit. see the forums. Straight forward once the burnt wirrs are fixed, p.s I am just about to re-do the brake lines as I used SAE tooling instead of the DIN Type flare required for the M10 nipples, The M19 nut dont put sufficient pressure on the connection due to the angle on the backside of the SAE bubble flare being tapered. DIN type has a 90 degree flat surface to match the Nut. Imperial SAE have a taper! All the cars i had so far have been Imperial so, anyway glad to have found out why the connections leaked even with very tight fittings. we live and learn⛑

What happens if you use higher voltage (12V is eazier to come by from a car battery)? Or will you get a Beirut type of event?
@ottopartz1Ай бұрын
I'm sure that you can find something more suitable than a car battery for a small plating tank. A 9v smoke alarm battery would be enough to do half a 5 gallon bucket tank. I've found through impatience and experimentation that using excessive current when plating and anodizing almost always results in bad quality results.

What would the voltage/current requirements be for 3 or 4 times the amount of solution for increased capacity? How is that scaled if that’s an applicable question? I imagine that an increase in the mass of the anodes would be necessary? Apologies for the newbie questions
@raymondmenard5444Ай бұрын
Wow ! This was great man, i've seen a lot of guys doing it with much more elaborate set ups with big power supplies and all, but no one ever really explains what voltage is required or what the actual solution is made of.

You have the two zinc plates shorted together with copper wire. If you connect the negative as at 1:32 you will have a dead short across your batteries.
@453421abcdefg12345Ай бұрын
No, the negative is connected to the wire hanger which is hanging on the wooden stick, the negative is not connected to the positive wire at all.
@michaelsimpson9779Ай бұрын
At 1:32, indeed, the two zinc plates are connected by a copper wire. If you do as he says, with what is shown at that time frame, you will have a short across the battery. While he's talking about the charging process, loading the solution, that copper link between the two zinc plates would not be there...
@453421abcdefg12345Ай бұрын
@@michaelsimpson9779 ? At 1:32 the negative wire is not connected to the zinc plate! The copper wire is indeed connected to the opposite side of the vessel and that is to get a more even deposit on the part to be plated, the negative is connected to the bolt which is isolated from the zinc plates by being on a wooden rail, have another look.
@mk6595Ай бұрын
Exactly. Don't "charge" the solution with that copper wire in place. Two electrode plates with nothing but the solution connecting them. Also, this doesn't take 2 minutes...It takes an hour and 2 minutes.

Correct! I did not mention that the copper wire only gets added for the plating process, I will add this information as a caption.

Do you by any chance know how to achieve that yellowish zinc plated look? Either way, this also looks like it will be a good amount of protection, but doesn't look as shiny
@ethanallen3625Ай бұрын
To get the yellow look you dip the plated part in a chromate solution, it is an additional set of steps after what Steve did here.
@Dixler683Ай бұрын
This man did not add brightener to his plating solution. Also it is a very basic ( primitive ) plating solution resulting in a very dull plate. The zinc film must be very thin based on the short time in the tank. You need low voltage 1.5 -3 volts and higher amperage 4-5 amps. The finished plating must be very bright and shiny if you want the yellow rainbow finish. A short dip ( 5 seconds ) in a potassium chromate solution will give you the desired yellow finish.

Came across your channel a year or two ago. Enjoyed the videos but did not watch all of them through. Have come across your channel again and am getting a lot out of it. Any BMW video now is going to be compared to M539, and it is hard to match his production quality. I am liking the pace and structure of your videos though. They are fun to watch, and I like the 'hanging out in the garage' feel of them. Good like with the E31.

That should have come with your timing kit, it goes through the Upper Sump housing and into only one of the holes in the Flex plate Starter ring gear disc which can be installed temporarily, Picture of the pin on fleabay FYI. used the old gasket to space the upper sump out for checking then put the new gasket during final assembly after fitting lower outter timing cover the pin locks the crank
