Critical_Mass 10 Posted January 3, 2010 8vmatt, could you take another pic of how you have connected the bracket to the engine that holds the BMC? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8vMatt 1 Posted January 3, 2010 8vmatt, could you take another pic of how you have connected the bracket to the engine that holds the BMC? :) Yep I can do for ya. To start with, there is a flat metal strip that came in the BMC box. Just cut about a 3" piece and bend into an L shape. 1" by 2". Drill out one of the holes in the strip at the long end. You need this hole to clear one of the engine bolts on that side of the engine. Undo the bolt and feed the strip onto it and tighten. Now you can bolt the filter strap to the metal strip. Ta Daa!

Critical_Mass 10 Posted January 3, 2010 No different. I think its the clips holding the fuel lines on that made me thing it was part of the how the BMC was held on :oops: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8vMatt 1 Posted January 3, 2010 Ahh see what you mean, it does look like that from the pic to be fair, no worries. The BMC is great though hey! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted January 3, 2010 Indeed it is matey! I bought a BMC cleaning kit the other week and gave it a wash and then put some oil on it. DONT DO IT! It must have been causing my MAF problems as the revs would dip occasionally and sometimes caused the car to stall - until i washed it all off :?
