He then unscrewed the black color plactic cover under which there are two hoses.He said one is a pressure hose and the other is a overflow hose @ something like that. The end of the pressuse hose had eroded over time and I presume suddenly way as there was absolutely no warning about it.Whe the incident happened  I tried to move the car to a nearby w/shop the petrol just started pouring out. What my mech did was he cut out the old hose (3-4 inches) and replaced it with a new hose( with a metal pipe inside). He said this problem is quite common in a E36 and I suggest u guys get ur hoses checked.</blockquote>
