Hey Folks

Just wondering if anyone knows where the fuel pump for an E30 baur convertible is?

Some bloke before me has installed an inline pump obviously to bypass a dead or dying fuel pump so am looking at all avenues to replace the inline pump with the proper thing!

Cheers

if you go to www.realoem.com and put your vin number in, it should tell you how its meant to be. my 87 2dr has an inline one was just a "limp home" measure as the fuel pump went 170 miles from home. never got round to replacing it though!

M10 engines (which your 316 carb is i assume) has two fuel pumps, one inline and one in the tank
