    Fuel hose question?>

    pull the FP relay (it's the middle one in the relay block next to the AFM), crank it over, wait till it dies. other than that? Don't smoke, and use real fuel hose. also, it hurts if you get it in your eyes ;)

        do you know what he means when he says "real fuel line"? i dont know your level of expertise as a mechainc but theres fuel injected line and carbed line. be sure you have fuel lines rated for efi. id do all the lines to the charcoal cannister and return lines while youre in there. i had a fuel line pop right in my driveway. luckily no fire

            The return line runs next to the main line under the car I think, I think you can trace which is which from there....it shouldn't be too hard...

            BTW, I like your wheels! :D

              Oh god, what has R3v come to when a girl has to give people advice on how to find a fucking fuel line.

              And really Kate, stop flirting with all the guys here for attention.

              Why don't you just pack up your shit, and take you and your indecisive vagina with you.

                            Why would you say that? 325i use 3 bar pressure regulators. The whole pressure side of the fuel system sees that pressure at times.
