BM3 Engine Mount Flex Fuel Kit
Okay guys I’m at a loss. The only write up/video for the engine mount kit is on the B58 in the A90 Supra. According to this video, I remove the fitting from the inlet on the fuel pump, disconnect the hard fuel line, replace with the flexible line included in the kit and connect the sensor between the factory flex line and the flex line I just connected. EZPZ.
Except, as you know our S58 has two fuel pumps, and where the instructions say to remove the line, we have a splitter that feeds both the fuel pumps. I’m kinda starting to wonder if maybe they sent me the wrong kit and the S58 configuration should be connected on the fuel line side next to the DME with two new flex hoses. Any insight is much appreciated. |

I’m not familiar with the BM3 kit but the Fuel It E sensor connects between the hard line close to the ECU. Took me about 20min total to install.

I have a feeling that I could make this work that way. I feel like the included quick connect lines will work with the factory connector, but that’s not how the write ups are showing it.

Looking for insight on this too. You're supposed to just not use the fitting provided but seems like a lot of extra fuel line since the sensor assembly is pretty big. Would love to see photos of the kit installed if anyone has any.

Yes, you disconnect your flexible fuel line near the firewall and from the hard fuel line located near your DME. Using the supplied flex hose, connect it to the short side of the sensor, the opposite side from the BM3 logo. Connect the flex hose to the hard fuel line next to DME. Using the factory flex hose, connect to the sensor on the BM3 logo side, then connect to hardline near the firewall. You don’t need to go all the way to the fuel pumps. Hope that’s clear enough for you guys. |

Fair enough. Just OCD with my installs but if that’s how it needs to be then is what it is. Thanks for confirming.

I understand completely, I'm the same way. I wasn't thrilled with having it looped, but I just made sure it wasn't rubbing or resting on anything hot and reassembled. It truly is unnoticeable as long as you run a cover.

Thanks again. I’m researching a line solution for something cleaner and I’ll update if I find something good.
