First Start in 16 Years!!! 1973 BMW 2002

- We got this BMW running that's been sitting for 16 years! In the first part we just show what we did to get this old BMW from not running for years to firing back up. We started with poring oil over the valves and trying to lubricate everything. We then decided we would turn the motor over by hand to lubricate everything. Doing that helped us prevent any damage from poor lubrication. We then flushed out the fluids and put new fluids in. We tried starting the car after that but it was still having a hard time. Thats when we decided to use a can of starter fluid and sure enough the car fired up. once we had it running everything went smooth. We let the car run and get warm. Once the car warmed up we wanted to turn if off and ran into the issue of the car not turning of. So we figured we can just pull the spark plugs and try to let it die that way. To our surprise pulling the sparkplugs out did not stop this wild motor. I am still not sure how it was running with out the motor. So we went to the next logical step was to get rid of the oxygen. So we wrapped the carb with a cloth to kill the car. Over all this was a great way to get the car started. Our next plan is to slowly start making the car road worthy and mechanically sound. Stay tuned for more frequent updates on this project coming this summer 2018

thats a valuable car and highly collectable. it was and is classic!
Is water blue also or was it the sky ?
probably the best BMW motor (M10). ... 470,000km and I'm still traveling!
I think we only have 50k on our motor
God those 2002's are such beautiful cars, at least in my opinion, i would so love to own one.
God I want one of these! The coolest classic car to own by far!
I Love this video. I'm about to start my golf 2 first time in 7 years
Great vid!
Nice way of handling a start up after so many years. Thanks!
Greetings from Belgium!
Today's BMW models will not last as many years as 2002. I owned 316 in 1995. At present 318 E 46. It's great that you have launched such a beautiful classic with your soul. Greetings from Poland. You are awesome :)
Thanks bro! Appreciate the support! Lots more to come on this project :)
i have 318i e46 too, very clumsy performance but m43tu very good durable engine and cheap to maintain.. greetings from indonesia
When I see those round tailights, I woukd normally associate it with a 67 or 69 model 2002, the 73 till76 or 77 model had the square tailights, it looks good, nice to see annother classic on the road again.
This is like watching a re-run of Dan Akroyd and Steve Martin's Wild and Crazy Guys! Loved it You guys a re crazy...without trying
Great job! Malaga is the best color for our cars. Awesome seeing other people making 2002 content. Hit me up if you ever want to go efi or turbo!
This old car has mind and feelings and lives by itself ;)
Incredibly clean engine inside!
too clean, made me think it's fake and that it has already been started before the video was made.
We think it was rebuilt before the guy put it in storage. or it actualy has 50k miles on it
Ahh, the good old days, when you could work on a BMW without first removing a bunch of extra stuff, using a basic set of hand tools from the hardware store.
jd rancho and not needing a levels of electronic to do something xd
Haha tell me about it I’m a tech for them! It’s crazy!!
My e36 is a 95, I just did a manual swap with hand tools from Harbor Freight
You guys are awesome!
Awesome guys
Nice rescue, may it see many years more of the open road
ohh, the car of my dreams 2002 .... nice video, grettings from Sud Americas , Chile . villa alemana city
This is why some older cars need premium fuel. They form excessive amounts of carbon and start dieseling. Heard carbon buildup was such a big issue back it the 70s and 80s for BMW, they made a special sand blasting tool to blast crushed walnut through the head to avoid a teardown. Whatever crushed walnut left in the cylinder would be harmlessly burned up after starting. That's what I was told by a man that serviced them about 40 years ago.
Actually, pouring water down the intake was the service secret sauce. Advanced users would route a window washer line into the intake, hit the freeway, and apply water/alochol mixture 50/50.
@giberish9 The walnut blasting fact is definitely true, i've heard the same thing. Funny enough this is an even bigger problem on the newer direct-inject turbocharged engines, even when run strictly on premium gas/pretrol. The n54 motors are getting to the mileage where they have enough build up in the intake valves/ports to cause a performance issue, in which the cars no longer have 'the same pep'. Many owners of turbo e90 are having their intake valves/ports cleaned this way. Its also only a temporary fix, as the problem is inherent in the design. Some are reporting this problem at 100,000 miles or even less!
NOT quite right, we have to make sure it does not get into the cylinder by making sure the valves are closed.
Muy bueno
IDubzz lost brother?
jannplanken omg you right
Great video guys
Well done !! Guys !!
That’s so funny when you said drive fast with that extra clip
great work
looks like a fun project
Nice job
my fav bmw EVER
Sounds great
idubbbz loves cars, amazing
pretty cool guys.
you rock man
Aye these guys are in washington nice!
BMW 2002 is a very good car
Also, at 9:30; it's called "dieseling" your engine is experiencing too much heat... Causing your gasoline engine to run (in reverse rotation) off of compression from the fumes leftover in the combustion chamber. No spark needed to run on compression, just like a diesel engine.
Plz take care this car
Good job :)
good stuff!
Awesome video! Earned yourself a new subscriber 😀
Mr. Hoonigan Thanks for subbing brother!
well done boys
Thanxx...for restauration
Dreamcar...
...called..Porschekiller
From Germany...Berlin
Love the intro :)
Thanks bro!
Nice car
I had that same year 2002 in the same Malaga red paint. Was rolled by a drug dealer and got it at auction for $900 in 1983. Had a Weber and that same air cleaner. Fun cars but don't miss it one bit.
Verie good cars 👍👌✌💕
Ай Женя! крута в тебе тачка! 😎
When the engine didnt stop, why dont u put it in gear and release the clutch?
because most of Americans just know automatic gear...lol.
It’s to easy
@@bombelo40390 yip!
In most people's minds they would expect the car to take off
or you could just disconnect the battery you fucktards
Nice and funny video
Sweet vid, can't believe it kept running lmao
Yea that was a shock for us as well haha. Now that we are further in the project I think this was because of the carburetor that kept supplying the fuel. Btw you have a sweet Z. I just actually watched your video on repairing the dash. I think we will need to do that eventually as well. We have a few cracks in it.
This car is remarkably clean for a car that stood for 16 years. I am starting to think this video is bullshit or it is a huge thumbs up for BMW build quality!!! Now is the time to shoe horn an E46 M3 engine under the hood and do a brake and suspension swop ...
it was in storage for 16 years, and it only has 50k miles on it. basicly a barn find haha
Carbs nice and rich over run ahahah I thought it was rich when it was idling first start up
Да он гонит!Она пару месяцев стояла всего а не 16 лет☝️
haha we found this car at a storage unit. The guy had it in his garage for 16 years
Lowkey this channel gonna blow up someday soon
Yea 3.3k subs lol and Kim not one of em.
Nice Car
Thannks!
Wow. I heard those cars had major issues with carbon buildup on the valves, but never knew it could diesel that bad because of it. Still impressive. Trying to remember if the carbon issue was worse on the 2002TII
I had a BMW 2002 in the late 1980`s as a winter car, to protect my 1976 Celica from ice and snow. This car was good fun, although no comfort,rel. high fuel consumption and loud....3000rpm@ 100km/h.......
I put a five speed into mine and it gets 30 mpg at 70 mph on premium gasoline. Will do a hundred in 3rd and the engine is modified with a reground cam shaft.
My 2002 sat for 2 years and I had to do a water pump, and the carburetor needed to be rebuilt. You should do a valve adjustment.
Eh you should take 4 th Gear and Car engine is off, from this you can build insane retro bmw 🤩
Hahaha, the super timid approach to spraying fluid in the carb at 5:55....
They less the better. There is a lot of damage you can do to an engine due to uncontrolled combustion, very much like the run-on dieseling after they turned it off.
Value of this car is bigger than a new series 5.
2002 one of my fav models !
if you don't have love for a 2002, it's like telling Suge Knight you hate Death Row!
dident know idubbbz worked on cars
M10 😍😍😍😍👍👍👍
crazy babys
"Drive fast!" 8:34. Don't push the brake in a curve, but pull down the gas pedal to produce oversteering in the middle of the curve!
Yo u guys forgot about the spark plugs 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😂🤣🤣 that’s a nice car thoughhh
Engine looks fairly "fresh", or at least the head. I would do a compression check on this, could be that it has higher compression internals and a stock cam. All this and low octane (old?) gas will make it diesel. Normal m10 will push 140-180psi.
😎 Cool
Gonna need rod bearings after that diesel moment
i hav one too da cool little rockets
8:09 khm it smells like clutch :D
👍👍
had 1 same colour same year later rear lights single webber I must have been mad to sell it!
It sounded like you had a major vacuum leak - probably crankcase ventilation...
Curious horizontal spark plugs...
Amazing!
Hey Brah!
You still have the car I would to buy it from you brah!
Wow a cool car i like the old bmw... need more oktane the the car engine stops by turn off...
Dieter Müller We changed the gas, and got new jets and that fixed the problem!
73's car showing technical problems... Well thats innovation that long ago
C1N3M4T1x the days you could work on a BMW without taking half the engine apart :D
when starting a car that hasn't been running in years spray oil in the cylinder , were the plug was ,let sit over night. also draine fuel tank ,new gas
Marvel Mystery oil is good for cylinders. I'd also look into the tank after emptying to check condition of metal innards.
Зажигание настройте!

Awesome video guys. I was dying when you couldn't turn the engine off!! What was happening?
Nate Delage Lol thanks man! It was a lot of fun! It could be two things. Either it was way too hot and causing the gas to combust by itself when the pistons go up. Or the timing is off and it's causing fuel to keep coming in at the wrong time. Something we definitely need to fix. 😂
The engine kept on running after you turn it of because it didn't run for long time. Thru the years dirt and carbon accumulated in the combustion chamber and this starts glowing and ignites the fuel mixture. I have worked a lot with old 02 bmw and had it happen to me too a few times. Nothing to worry about, this usually go's away after a long and sporty drive. Or you could lift the head and clean it. What I did notice is that under the head cover the engine looked really clean a good sign that the engine is really fresh. You have a really nice car here for restoration. And please don't do anything stupid with it like big fenders and spoilers. These cars look best all original with European bumpers and lowered 1 inch.
And that type of engine is one of the most reliable engines of BMW it is so strong that BMW used this engine in there F1 cars in the 80's and squeezing 1500hp out of it. Good luck with the 2002!
you are right, the M10 is very strong, my mate has a Turbo E30 with an M10, 300hp on stock engine no problems
Oregon PNW wya
well,..... nothing to Add the video speaks for it self
restore it. 2002s are rare asf
yup, we are back at it
Were is the p?
I just got an '02 and my brakes keep seizing too! How did you fix yours? I changed calipers, lines and pads no luck.
Shafen Tahsin We bled them and that didn't do all that much. We ended up spraying penetrating fluid on the disks as we drove slowly and it freed them up. If you changed the calipers and lines, maybe it's an issue with the master cylinder? I plan to rebuild them or maybe get e21 calipers.
Do yours seize up after a bit of driving? Good way to check if the master cylinder needs work if they're sticking on once hot is to throw a bottle/bucket of cold water on the master cylinder and see if they un-stick. Worked well on my M535.
Best and safest to change wheel calipers, wheel cylinders and master cylinder at the same time when things are sticking. I did it all and it was the master cylinder. Make sure none of the steel lines have any kinks and that rubber types of lines have not swelled internally sealing of transfer of fluid. I've seen it all. Also make sure E-brake is releasing. I don't apply E-brake when vehicles are stored. They seem to always melt to the drum over extended periods of time. Bought my 1970 and power breaks did not work. Had the booster rebuilt and they still didn't work. One way valve in vacuum booster line had been reversed! Also open choke and butterfly valves all the way when spraying starter fluid into the engine before starting.
Hahaha Nice vid guys! ;D
still faster than my 2017 114d
Sounds like the timing is off,
if you try started the car with the first battery it would burn all the cables ,i had one stoped around twenty years ,and it started in the second turn of the engine
Throw away the mirror and this airfilter and Replace Them by genuine parts. BMW Mobile Tradition in Munich has Them all
caribbean car channel
hmm the valves that is rocker arms they would be lubed in 15 sec the normal way
И антифриз они слили с нее свежий!☝️
Que tal muchachos de donde son?
Looks like it had a rebuilt motor before it was put away
yea we did not expect the head to look so good when we took off the cover
8.28 maybe you can unlock the handbrake or pull off the wheel and give the hammer whack on the drums not the disc that's seems not so good to hit
Wollah Meh it's going to start!
How much did you pay for it ?
Any updates on the 2002? I'm working on my 72' TII RIGHT NOW!!
Okus Sidenote That's awesome! Lots of updates! Coming soon! Subscribe! :)
subscribed! The more detail the better! I know there are lots of 2 owners that would love to see some in-depth how to videos!!
