I have a 89 325i and a 89 320i and they both have external pumps by the passenger side rear wheel????? or is that something else? they have power going to them so assumed they were the external pump Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
320guy 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 Oh ok, Ive never come across any facelifts with the external pump, there is a fuel filter there instead usually. But if it has wires going to it, it will be a pump. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlowMyWhistle 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 I was told there are 2 pumps also. It was the primary, in tank pump. They replaced it with an aftermarket unit. Now the fuel gauge aint working, I'm wondering if it had the right connectors on it? They spent 2 hours on the car, so it's running very nicely. This fuel tank has 2 ports in it, the one on the drivers side, has the pump & the slider for the fuel gauge, but whats the other device in the left hand side of the tank? looks like another fuel gauge??I coulda fixed this whole thing myself for $95, a 2nd hand pump. but I pulled the pump & it worked...
