Thanks @mrbeancounter90 :) A few people had said it was not a DIY job, but to be honest, it was pretty straight forward. Ive run the car a lot since and zero leaks or issues.
Good stuff Todd. Those fittings are called Banjo fittings. Just a tip, whenever I do anything to do with Fuels and oils I never use paper towels. The lint can be a contaminate...even though fuel has a minute amount of lint in it anyway, your filter should remove that before it's introduced in the system. But be careful final wiping parts with paper towels. Sometimes it's just better to leave them dry on their own. If you're using white spirits, or brake cleaner, that's not going too take long. Excellent attention to detail and explanations. Keep up the good work mate. Marc
Yeah!! Great job Mr. Todd. Those parts looks like new if you asked me. The video looks great really but I can't believe it just got there only with the motherboard change...nice, also the plastic cover make the image looks more of a pro approach... You will end up being a cineast!!! 😎👍🏻 Congratulations!
When you end up assembling the two halves together, let us know what type/brand of sealant you're using.....I rebuilt mine last year, and now it's leaking between the two halves.🤬🤬
@@MrToddgibbs Yeah been dragging my feet getting to one rebuilt off a 79 model. Already did some work on a 94 968. Clutch, timing and balance belt, power steering pump, alternator, then had to weld a flex pipe on exhaust since exhaust shop eliminated it when welding in a new resonator and muffler. So it caused vibration.
Watched Sreten at M539 do the same repair to his BMW E21 323i - Project Castellón: Part 3
Great video, and admire your technique, thanks

Banjo fittings... thats it :) Good tip about the paper towels - I'll respray with brake cleaner and allow to dry, thanks for that!
Another excellent video Todd and very informative. Keep up this brilliant work.
Respect and love from Taiwan. Stay safe.
As always, thanks Terry :)
@@MrToddgibbs Your welcome :)
Nice job. Amazing device. Testing is going to be real interesting. Thanks for the videos.
Yeah agree! Just cleaning up the fuel lines ready... :)
Thanks much for all the videos Todd. You're inspiring me video by video to work on my 1979 928 :)
Hey Dominic, thanks :) what condition is she in?

too late now but you can buy those basket filters. Having gone that far, I'd be inclined to replace them.
Hi Howard - you mean the ones on the side of the central shaft of the fuel distributor?
@@MrToddgibbs The little plastic 'hats' in the banjo connectors. They're cheap to just replace.

Coincidentally I was just thinking about it.... need to be a petrol-proof one.
This guy should be a brain surgeon
Spoiler alert - it works :)
