E30 Intake Manifold Removal and Refinish - Wrinkle Finish 

Hard to believe you only have 40 subscribers, great videos, great vibe and a beautiful classic car!

So thankful this was out there! I’m doing a head gasket, this dang intake manifold dreaded me. It’s funny because I got the same wrinkle paint planning on doing the exact thing haha

At first I thought this video was going to be some generic tutorial, but man was I wrong! The quality of your video is amazing-how its shot, the lighting, music, editing, good well done. Keep it up!

I am doing my fuel injectors, I'm going in the other way but it was great to see how they actually are on the intake manifold. Very helpful.

Looks really good man!

Awesome camera shots man really nice video

I'm a visual learner, and quite honestly don't have the patience to read through some crazy long thread on the forums so this really helped, I'll be throwing on a resprayed manifold in the same black wrinkle and silver finish as well as throwing on some rebuilt stock injectors along with a slew of other maintenance bits in the engine bay. Thanks for sharing this!

Thank you for a very helpful video.

Looks awesome!

Great! I wiil do it, and will replace some bad hoses, thanks!

These videos are awesome!

very good video!

I did mine in the heat paint i think its the same stuff because it said the same heavy coat so inturn i had some runs i had to take time to fix lol gotta love going against the what you know lol looks good man! my valve cover has another rondel on but mine doesn't look that good i should have used a dremel to sand down the high points don't use a wire wheel there too abrasive it was taking off too much

Looks OEM straight out the factory

nice bro

Stellar. I'll definitely be doing something similar on mine. Thanks, very in-depth and helpful. *High-five*

Love the vids, would also like to see the car as a whole, looks to be super clean!

Great video thanks! Will be doing this with mine soon for sure. My fuel rail is also very rusty. Do you happen to know where I can get the one you have so I can be certain it'll fit? Thanks!

Is there a good way to keep the manifold bolts in the socket when putting the manifold back on? The bolts that are near the firewall are F’ing hard to get to.

hi, i just wanted to see how the early model return line is located to the intake manifold. Is it possible, that there is physical damage on the return hose from the intake manifold? maybe i was seeing it wrong.

Love the music you put to this

Where did you get the air filter? And I have a 1990 bmw 325i and it’s running rich and I believe gas is dripping out of the exhaust tips which is why I’m watching this video because I’m going to replace the fuel injectors but if that doesn’t work do you have any other ideas of what it could be?

I’m doing this project exactly and i was wondering how did you put the pole under the intake manifold I can’t seem to put it back on please help me text me back so we can talk 👍🏾

I’m having an issue where my 5speed e30 while driving or in idle at random points will show that its overheating and the car will lose power and go into limp mode. If I shut the car off and on again it is right back to normal, any idea what that could be ? I’m going crazy

Great

Wow, just found your channel. Unbelievable production quality for E30 videos on YT. Thanks! Quick question, is the baking absolutely necessary? I’m afraid to stink of the kitchen or whole house by doing so. Let me know what you think!

So I'm hindsight best to remove lower radiator hose so you don't bathe your block.

I soaked mine in a turkey bag with trans fluid. Paint bubbled right off.

What paint did you use?

Are those m50 injectors?

Once you removed the manifold.... was the starter easy to access? I’m currently in the process of this and hoping to replace my starter also.

What kina spray was used?

which paint did you use?

I've been spray painting wrong my whole life

what color is that

Can you give a link to the paint you used? Or at least the brand. Thanks!

Ha! you can't buy that paint remover anymore.

Creepiest basement I have ever seen

Congratulations Einstein you just added heat to something that used to dissipate heat very well and also made it look like plastic and not to mention eliminated the beautiful incredible Jewel like properties of aluminum

The finish looks nice. I Really like e30s but that engine design is just plain ugly. 🫤 I’ll saving up for some ITBs cause that intake is horrible

What paint did you use?
