[QUOTE="BMW2002, post: 89338, member: 603"] Could it be your fuel pump?? i know that's what happened to my cuz's e30. he hasn't had the time to change it, but for now, he doesn't fully close his petrol cap. he just turns it enuf to keep it fastened. This way it's not airlocked, hence allowing more 'breathing space' for your fuel pump because less pressure in the tank. this causes less stress on the fuel pump. also, he keeps his fuel levels at not less than half tank each time to also cause less stress, so that it doesn't have to work harder on pumping the fuel. dunno if this is true, but that's what the mech said. :dunno: try and see. process of elimination? :dunno: :D [/QUOTE]
