Tatarin's Silver ZHP Project Thread

[Tatarin]

Next on the list:
0) Sourcing the rear passenger spring carrier: Might be the reason behind bad toe.
1) Body work: Few months out.
2) Sourcing better adjustable coilovers: Bilsteins
3) Rear bushings
4) Bumper solution: Custom steel bumper or fixing the stock bumper on to the body

I will work on making another post about my ZHP adventures later today, for now, an update about the fuel leak I was experiencing.
The reason why I had a fuel leak was my original repair on the fuel pump.
The fuel pump seal, if installed incorrectly will slip off the edge of the fuel tank.
Best way to install it is to wrap the string around the seal while installing the new pump, seat the pump, before twisting the cover on, pull the string off.

How did you know your car was leaking fuel? Smell in the cabin or noticeable drop in fuel economy/remaining fuel?

BMWCurves:
It would piss fuel from the middle of the car's rear passenger compartment if the tank was more than 7/10s full.

Doesn't sound like a fire hazard. Well done fixing it.

I noticed it while lighting a cigarette a few feet away from it. Wind changed directions. I almost quit smoking on the spot... forever.
