[QUOTE="2h00pm, post: 593151, member: 26105"] The car is heavily fuelled up. Stands at 58 litres or so now. The fuel hoses of the fuel pump appeared to have been changed in the past, along with the hose clamps. Whereas the fuel hoses of the fuel level sender unit look as if they were fitted in since factory - original BMW-type clamp and the hoses branded BMW 8x13 and x18.. She got 260 000 kms on that unit! On Saturday night, I turn the lock #4 clockwise an inch. Tonight it leaks about only 30 % of last time. I turned it again tonight, it turn another inch clockwise. Now I think its up to the maximum. 2" in all ! amazing. I cleaned again and glued some Kleenex there. Tomorrow I check again. If any leak, Kleenex should show it ;) [/QUOTE]
