fuel supply

[e30sky]

hey guys, i would like to know what are these two objects in the picture. i know they have to do with fuel, my only guess is a filter or sumthing. i wanna buy them back brand new so i just want to know exactly what are they.

thanks



this is a pic i used from google because for some strange reason mine wont upload. its that little round thing there just beneath the brake booster area.

The silver can is for emissions iirc, I think it's a charcoal canister

looks like a fuel filter to me. Eta cars had the fuel filters located there instead of under the car by the drivers side rear wheel. The charcoal canisters are painted black and have a line going to the intake manifold. What year and model e30 is it?

You might wanna open the photo in MS Paint circle the items and then post this picture back up here. Because I have no clue what two objects you're talking about.

Looks like it's easier to change that fuel filter than on a late model. I hate laying on the ground :(
