engine swap In tank fuel pump

[chad]

I have looked for the past several hour looking for a picture that is floating around the website that shows the stock 02 pump , an E30 325i pump, an E30 318is pump, and a Tii pump all side by side.  Can anyone point me to the post that has the picture?  I just seen it the other day and want to say it was in an M20 swap post but I haven't been able to source it.  Thanks.

You are looking for a 1991 e30 fuel pump.  You will find some information searching M42 swaps on this forum.

I had the picture on my computer for reference for future projects. After searching, I found the thread. It is #17 post about half way down.

While we are talking 318is/M42 fuel pumps..

 

What did you guys use as a connector/connector housing? Where did you run your ground and to what?

[M3M3]

the stock e30 connector that goes with the pump.

 

ground anywhere near the pump.

[kid2002]

Okay, I thought so.

 

So is grounding it on the neg battery post adequate? That's where it's at now... Was so excited to hear it crank over, got the fuel system done and rehooked everything and CLICK... ewww

[M3M3]

yes.

 

battery in trunk?   is it an AGM or do you have venting set up to the outside if it is a wet cell?

[kid2002]

Yup, battery in trunk with my TEP brace.. Vented through the trunk floor, unless I should do it better?

 

Car has fresh fuel in it for the first time in like 10 years.. just need to combust some of it now.. lol

[M3M3]

Just checkin. ;-)

Guys, just getting ready to head home from work. Just wanted to drop some info in here regarding the in tank fuel pump swap.

 

If you need a connector housing to make the connection to the pump use this housing -

 

PN# Plug Housing - 61 13 1 378 408 x1

PN# Snap In Receptacle/Socket - PN 61 13 0 007 441 x2 

I had everything I needed in stock, now if I can get this thing running..
