I own a 1997 BMW 528i with the M52 inline 6. When she stopped running, I had to find out why. Her engine turned over, but it wouldn’t fire. I pulled a spark plug to check for spark (which I had) and gas (which I didn’t have.) I then checked to see if the fuel pump was working (it wasn’t.) So I replaced the fuel pump. I also replaced the fuel filter. This DVD contains detailed video of how I did this.
I didn't use a manual to do this. Nor did I consult TIS. I've owned several BMWs including an E28 and an E36. I currently own an R1150R as well. So I am familiar with them.
The price is $20 which includes handling and shipping (via media mail) to anywhere in the continental U.S. Preferred payment is through PayPal. I may be able to make other arrangements for both payment and shipping. I know what it is like to not have wheels. This item is listed on ebay if that is easier. It is item #290581478179.
If you decide to purchase this DVD, please let me know the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you are anything like me, I keep all paperwork with the car, including the manual. It makes it easier to sell the car. This would be great to have with the car because the fuel pump can be considered a consumable part.
I have plans to produce a few other DVDs from my 1997 528i if there is sufficient interest. These would include the valve cover gasket, water pump, and thermostat, the starter motor, and the front and rear struts/shocks. I may even do a front/rear brake replacement or replacement of the engine sensors.
