Subject: but she's been in a medically induced coma for 4+ years Author: rdurbeck as Rich 1990 750iL : member since December, 2004 : 1111 posts Posted on: 2011-09-26 07:27:44

or is that a bcweir induced coma?

Anything new on trying to get the 750 back on the road? At this point, the calipers are probably rusted solid and will need to be replaced, you might luck out there since TX is so dry.

I still thing that if you replaced the EML and both DME's, along with a fresh new battery, it might start right up. Remember, all that would cost $200 (assuming a good deal on ebay) and 30 minutes of your time. And even though you're not supposed to work on your car where you store it, I am sure you can fit 30 minutes in with noone noticing it.
