  1. it was the lower pipe the one which meets the throttle body and icv and the it was only the little icv hose that had split once refitted started the car drove it for a few miles then got back home sprayed brake cleaner all round the hose that id repaired/bodged no change in idle speed at all where as before it was irratic ive changed the fuel filter and the fuel coming out of the old filter was black under a year old , i almost would say fuel pump is dying? as it can be fine for 5 miles then be straight back to how is was like theres no fuel getting through under load around 3000rpm it plays up then park up leave the car for an hour go back out and its fine again

  2. basically parked the car up last night was running fine then got in it to go to work this morning wouldnt rev up bogged down missing had a quick look the inlet elbows were split so for a temp fix ive taped them just too see if this was the problem its got better but still isnt great almost feels like lack of fuel but theres a 1/4 of a tank in there any ideas?

  3. hi people

    so when my 330 gets on the fuel light i can do ten miles before it runs out but the obc is saying i have 40 miles till empty so i took the back seat out and had a look in the tank and on the drivers side it was empty but the passenger had fuel in so i sucked it out to see how much exactly and it was around 5 litres so would i assume the lift pump in this side of the tank is faulty and if so is it the same as an e36?

    cheers matt
