Well I thought I already posted this but cant find it now so here it is again. I bought my T 500 at the end of last year before the went up, but I am just now getting around to puting it in my e99. Just wondering if there are any tips or tricks I need to take into consideration? I have the O ring kit for the fuel bowl and a new IPR to go with it.
thanks for any other info.
Make sure you have a new gasket to go between it and the front cover. And be sure to get the gear on the shaft straight and torque it to the proper spec.
Isn't there a step you have to take to not let the drive gear drop during removal of the old HPOP....I haven't done this job yet but a red flag comes up..
Havent got it out yet but I am thinking Joey sends the new gasket with the pump. I have changed the HPOP once before but it was years ago. I have the the instructions printed out from somwhere so I shold be good.
thanks guys

Fill the valley with a few rags to keep the oil contained. It will make it a little easier for clean up. Have new oil for filling the reservoir back up too.
well i went to get started and of course now I have an oil leak I want to figure out before i start on this. It is dripping from somewhere under the driver side exhaust manifold any ideas???
I do like the new T500 but I have alot of other tired things to address on my 290k motor. just have to figure out what order I want to do it in. Definetly need gauges and a tuner, but also have a spare motor out back I am thinking about getting started on. HMMMMMM
