Fuel surge on E30

[M3 Compact]

I have the info for twin standard pumps too, Ian. (Originally from you? )

I've still got the spare pump that was trialled and discarded for a reason that I can't recall.

All of my pumps etc are now unrequired if they're any use to you.

BMW in tank pumps do rely on the fuel for cooling

Possibly no use to you then.

It's a strange world that uses petrol to cool electric pumps.

how many cubes/£s of that DT foam would you need, to try it?

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind

Not sure to be honest. DT quote it per litre (£8 odd), and the tank holds 63L, so it's not cheap. Merlin were around 70p per cube (8x8x8cm), and it's going to take a fair amount of those to fill both sides.

Something else I need to investigate, is the E30 pump frame. I've found references to a different type that has the return feed (from the pressure reg) feeding in the top of the frame, and dumping it's load in the little bowl that the pump sucks from. My current setup dumps the return fuel in the other half of the tank. This may be enough to keep sufficient fuel near the pump pickup in the right handers.

Hi Ian

You have been recommended to me as someone who may be able to overcome an electrical problem on my E36 rally car. I can't work out how to send a PM to you on this new improved site so hope you may be able to contact me through this post! Thanks.

I've sent you a PM. If you can't get it, reply here, and we'll try something else.

Cheers,

Ian.
