SO here is the deal........
SO my goal is not to rip anyone off so Im gonna lay down all the info. My 98' 528i is in the shop right now because it was having a prob. with the temp fluctuating (heating up and cooling down). Did a pressure test and it was found that it had a leak in cyl #3. My mechanic (good guy) told me i could have a blown head gasket or a slight possiblilty of a cracked head. Before this engine was running great and everything was kept up to date. Instead of fixing this engine I decided to purchase a rebuilt one because it would of been 700 dollars just to see if it was a blown head gasket. This engine (inline 6 2.8l) could be great if you have a cyl. head avaliable, for a project, to rebuild, or to figure out for yourself if it is just a blown head gasket. Like I said, engine ran great with no problems before heating up (was not driving much after prob. was encountered) and was maintained so the bottom end is probably good......I just want to make some money off of it to help with the wallet damage for the new engine. Please make an offer. Hopefully I can help you out and you can help me out. Thanks!
