[Millar]

short shifter has arrived, now i need to find a gear knob that will fit it! it about 14mm diameter

[tommi_e21]

richbrook i find is best value for money

best feel and good quality at not a rip off price.

[Millar]

cheers for the recommendation, i'll have a check to see what sizes they go up to.

[tommi_e21]

no idea but they do a very good range of products.

providing you have a 5 speed i would suggest this

looks good i think and in silver and titanium

[Millar]

yeah they're pretty sweet, as i was looking for something as small as possible.

[Millar]

well looks like i'm still on the look out for a 323i fuel pump and fuel return? and i could do with some advise for fitting it

[nas80]

I heard the e30 in tank pump works ok. wiring it up isn't hard, but you need to fit an extra fuel line if the shell isn't a 323i.

[Millar]

the extra fuel line is my biggest problem, probably going to have to get someone who knows what they are doing to do it, cause i have no idea what i'm doing haha.

[e21-Mark]

All you need to do is run a solid fuel line the length of the car. You could even run it internally? I think because it's a return line, it won't be under much pressure either?

[Millar]

yeah i think you run a pressure regulator before it anyway. i'll have a look when i get back at xmas, as i don't even know where it runs from on the engine yet.

now back to the fuel pump and fuel return problem

Hello,

your car is originally a 320/6? then I wouldn't make such a problem about a returnline, because your car is already fitted with one........

[Millar]

its a 320/6 yes, but i thought only injection cars had a returnline?

[e-einundzwanzig]

no the solex 4a1 carb has a returnline also!

[Millar]

sweet, i just need to replace the pump then yes? is there a straight swap i can do?
