After years of letting my 8 series just sit on the drive after a leak from the gearbox me and my mechanic mate tried firing her up again. Fully charged batteries and tried starting her up but to no avail! She cranks but doesn't fire... Mechanic checked obvious things and led to fuel pump not working. Basically he says the pump is seized.
So I phone bmw and get told replacement pump is £549 + VAT!!!!!!
I can't afford that especially knowing I still have the front end of the car to repair as well as the leak from the gearbox!
My question is, Is there any other fuel pump that is similar or uprated fuel pump I could use instead like Walbro etc?
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
