What's not to like?
Just went through a similar fiasco with the girlfriend's M42'd E36. It would be a paint to start cold, idle like crap or rev to 2000 - 3000 rpm. When driving it would surge, and accelerate by itself from a steady throttle position. We picked up a low KM ICV, cleaned the hell out of it and installed it. At the same time we replaced the PCV hose and cleaned the breather. So far so good - starts well and behaves when driving.
