Here’s the story: stolen, recovered, sold at auction, previous owner lost paperwork, I bought for parts, now I want to save it.
Can’t read the entire vin # but it starts out: WB1 057307146????
Appears to be early 90s. Mileage 3956
Fire burned the fuel injection system so that has been removed and new manifold built and Weber carb added.
Problem: it starts, idles a couple seconds, revs up tp 6000 for a couple seconds ( with throttle closed ) and then dies. Chip has been removed from key—-is that part of the problem? Someone suggested that to me but not sure about that idea.
I’ve built hot rods for the last 60 years, but I’m new to BMWs, and cycles in general.
Thank you for any help that anyone can offer.

OK, Johnny, rip me a new one.
