Motronic Question

Recommended Posts

Im not sure where this topic should have gone sorry.

One thing that really confuses me is the Motronic/Jetronic thing. From what Ive found to read, only the 88 onwards e30s had Motronics, but in my 86 325i under the dash theres a Motronic ECU.

(at least it looks like an ECU to me, and has MOTRONIC written in mental asylum font)

Can anyone explain briefly or link me to something?

Thanks

I think all 325i's had Motronic even 86' ones but an earlier version(1.1???) Then 88 onwards(1.3???)

yup, earlier versions used the flywheel lug with sensors for timing. And later versions used the crank sensor instead.
