No fuse diagram,Help!!!What is what?

[dave Wright]

Hi,
I just purchased my first BMW.It's a 325is.The guy who sold it to me told me all it needed was a fuel line, but I didn't have a good feeling about him.He didn't seem too honest.

I purchased the car before I was able to see it,I mean it was covered with two feet of snow, and I could'nt even open the doors.When the car finally defrosted I realized it was not all he had made it out to be.

So here I am.TAKEN!!!!!!...crap.

I started the car with the gas line disconnected from the fuel rail.No gas game out.I finally found the top of the fuel sending unit,turned the key, and lisitned....nothing.I then unpluged the electrical,and jumped a battery to the pump with the hose still off the fuel rail.Hey we have fuel!So my pump works, and I have no power.Mabe it's a fuse.But which one?I have no owners manuel.Can aneyone help me please.

Regards,
Dave Wright

Moved to 3-series, you might get better results there.

My 1988 325ci Fuel Pump Fuse Is 11, But There Is Also A Relay. The Fuse Should Be A 7.5 Amp And Be Careful About Replacing The Relay, The Auto Parts Store Will Give You One That Looks The Same But Will Not Work The Same, They Have To Verify That The Relay Will Operate In The Same Manner Of The Original Part. If The Fuse Is Good, You May Want To Get A Relay.
