Nup.

I'm thinking after a good clean put another new filter in,  it's cheaper than three blocked injectors.

You got it going yay👍

Did you reconnect the hose to the valve or are you running a hose through the filler cap opening?

If you reconnected to the valve and it finally started and ran but stopped again the valve is probably blocked again. Clean it again. The whole fuel system probably wants a good clean.

Surprised no one has sent you to get the fuel stretcher. Solve all your problems ...
what’s a ‘fuel stretcher’?

That is a really nice machining and welding job you did, is that an aftermarket replacement spline? Did you have to bore out the drive shaft to press the new spline into it?
Cheers!

Man, that is a neat job. I would love to pay your good friend a whole box of beers to have my old shaft done the same way...

BTW how's the bike? Now that you have a good shaft, you might as well want to have the whole shebang rolling :)

Hello.
Thank you. Yes,it's a great job. The bike sort of starts,but I have a leaky injector,so I'm guessing just another 'O'ring. I also need a final drive spline fix. I think my mates going to look at it Wednesday to see if he can machine me up a new one.


He's pretty good at this sort of thing.

Leaky injector??? Send it back ASAP to the cleaning place. They should have changed the o-rings and filter basket, so probably they did not do any of that...

Its leaking from the bottom O ring,so it's probably just that. I had to buy the o rings separately.

After unblocking the return valve you finally had it idelling nicely, if it's rough now it needs cleaning again.

You can't clean it properly because you can't remove it. Try to flush it and clean it more,  it will be difficult because of your limited access. As a test you could bypass the valve temporarily with a hose through the filler opening, but you would want to be careful about that of course.

I’ll just break the jb weld seal and unscrew it. I can always filler it back in again after. I might try and see if I can find another tank too, as this ones not that great. Hard to come by now though.

Should be safe,  it's a motorbrick option. By the way I'm surprised how simple a spline replacement is,  now that I see your post. I won't be worried about that part failing any more.

Thanks. It is a shame that BMW made it out of cheese and not proper metal like the nice Japanese people choose to, as my CX shaft is older, but still looks newer than a new bmw one.

It's the old story of maintenance, plus your cx is low mileage.

both bikes are on 77,000miles. The cx is 4 years older, as I think it’s a different set of clocks which were broke at 20,000 or something like that. The clocks that were on it said 53,000 I think, so they are pretty much the same mileage. The cx shaft is still like new! Not a mark on any of the lands of the splines, unlike the beemer ones which were like sharks teeth! They are defiantly poor or quality, which for bmw, is pretty shite! And they have the call to still call a mini, a mini! You ever owned a real mini?, I mean a original 1963 1000cc mini with the high beam light switch on the floor?

Mini's:

New mini;  love the looks,  know nothing else about them.

Old Mini's; love them. Many moons ago,  I was hitch hiking home from school,  hopped in a mini,  I remember as big bumps in the road were approaching, I had the urge to lift my bum off the seat.

Some cars are nice to sit in,  or even look at,  before they're even moving.
