Motorraum: '90 750iL Elektrofrage- soll Samstag schrauben

[Erich]

Well I thought it was the fuel pump and it still maybe. I was pressed for time so I went ahead and installed it without checking if there was fuel between the pump and the fuel filters. I checked at the engine and I still do not have any fuel to the left bank (7-12 cyls?).

Jim and others mentioned "Limp Mode" is there a way that the engine can go into limp mode and not display an EML or other warning? As I stated in a previous post I have swapped MAF, DME, DME Relays, Fuel pump relays, inductve spark check on both sides. The problem remains on the left side.

The only other thing I can think about is that I will rout a piece of hose from the sending unit to a bucket to see if I have fuel there, if so, I'll check the fuel filters. I doubt that if it is a fuel filter issue that it would have cloged so abruptly (working in the morning and not in the afternoon). Any ideas on this. If there is fuel at the sending unit the only thing between there and the engine bay is the fuel filters right?

Shogun has asked about the EML. Prior to start up it lights for a couple seconds and then shuts off.

Does anyone know of any other reason why fuel is not making its way to the engine?

Still plugging away at this, hopefully it will be solved soon.

I tested the fuel pump in the engine bay as described in the previous post. At that time I checked the fuses again and noticed that since I installed the new pump my fuse #24 (fuel pump) was blown. I changed it out with a new one had then had my wife check the car after starting it. That same fuse is burnt out again. Is it possible knowing what I know now that the fuel filter may be pugged solid not allowing any gas to go through, in turn causing the pump to over work and blow the fuse?

Nachricht von real Ende.

Ich suche hier in Japan mal schnell nach einem Filter.
Aber kann das sein, dass das Filter total zu sitzen kann und die Sicherung 24 fliegt?
Was ist noch an Ratschlaegen zu sagen?
