While reinstalling the new fuel sender and making preparations for the restart on the '80 323i, there were two fuel line hookups unaccounted for. I reinstalled the same way I took it out, but I noticed two lines without any fuel lines attached.
After trying to restart the car, it was discovered that the PO had done some work to the fuel lines and some replumbing was done. This resulted in the hardlines to and back from the distributer in the engine bay not being connected. Good way to not get fuel to the engine. Now with the new fuel pump/ regulator showing up, that will be a good time to retrace just where the mix up occured.
Let's see, fuel tank to sender to fuel pump/ regulator to fuel filter to distributer back to the tank? Wait, that still leaves a couple of hook ups left over (the one on the sender). Plumbing should be easier than electric. Follow the flow....
