I just recieved my order from AA and it was missing the fuel injector elbows. I have enough xtra hose to cut 4 pieces and was wondering if anyone eles is running their cars like this. The only problem I could see is if the hose was to kink, and that would only happen if somthing was pushing against it. my car has the original bracke on the passenger side to hold the decel and mps sensor. and the other side I dont see anything that would be near the rail.

I used straight hoses on Babydoll (2.0 D-Jet) and have not had any problems with fuel delivery.

I used straight hoses on Babydoll (2.0 D-Jet) and have not had any problems with fuel delivery. I am using straight hose too and no problems in the past 9 months. Although if you want the elbow type and can't wait, according to MrKona (from a posting here last year) the type you're looking for were readily available from BMW and worked just fine. Part # is 16 12 1 176 821, and the BMW link: Link 1 Original thread that I pilfered this info from: linky Or, just wait for AA to get 'em. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
