Bosch fuel filter: 13321268231
BMW Fuel Hose: 16121180409
BMW Fuel Hose (J shape): 16121180399

I love how I could actually see everything you were talking about and everything made sense. I wish I could do this under 12 min like in the video lol

gracias. fuel line leaks in the engine compartment are very dangerous. like someone else commented, i'd also replace the fuel line that goes from the fuel tank to the fuel filter. thanks for making the video. buena suerte.

Excellent video, mine also leaks from the same location. Glad it's a simplish fix.

Man, you make it look so easy! Giving me mad confidence to do this myself instead of getting screwed by Firestone.

THANK YOU!!!! This is exactly what I needed to see. I wouldn't have even thought of pulling the #11 fuse. My E30 developed its fuel hose leak on the interstate yesterday. I could see the fuel gauge go down by the foot, not the mile! Half a tank of gasoline in 43 miles. Great video. Pretty E30!!

Check the upper and lower vacuum elbows that are on the throttle body. Your upper appears to be coming out of the throttle body. This is super common on the M20 B25 engines. It allows a small vacuum leak and will affect performance. These elbows have splines and are press fit into the throttle body and over time they can work themselves loose. Best to use a sealant of some type after pressing them back into the throttle body.

Dude, cool vid but can i just say. If you have a tear in your hose , it can be fuel hose hydraulic line what ever. You will never have pressure in it. Why? Cause u already have a tear where the pressure leaks out with your fluid! :D Just keep that in mind !
