    Yes! Another great video, even a very funny spot too. Good camera work! You guys are a great team. I need to replace my CCV soon but I'm a bit nervous about lifting the intake off. This vid will definitely help. Thanks guys for all your videos, keep the E46 love alive !!

    • @ShopLifeTV
      @ShopLifeTV  8 лет назад +2

      You do not necessarily have to remove the intake manifold to do the ccv, although it does make it easier. My advice is to get the ccv kit with new hoses and then just break all of the old hoses and remove the old ccv.

    • @kuktus83

      can i ask you please about the coolant lines underneath the intake ..
      i think its mandatory to remove it,
      i started my engine frozen ice inside since i had drinking water inside the engine ,i ende up with one or both coolant hoses broken
      thx 4 gr8 video

      Plus its been done so many times you can mostly buy a swap kit for it. But a m54 or N54 swap would be awesome simply becuase it's never been done

      I prefer to stick with something nissan, I am not sure exactly what yet, but may be a vq35hr or a vk45, not sure. I might even change my mind on the stock engine and do something with it. First I need to restore the body, then I will decide on everything else haha

    Ok I have questions, my e46 has two fuel lines that were connected to the fuel rail, and it also has an air line on the fuel rail,
    So when putting back this fuel hose, does it meter where you connect them? Or they go on specific pipe from fuel rail?
    And the other question, the air pipe that is on my fuel rail, I know the end of the pipe towards the front of the car connects to the ccv hose, but the other end of the pipe facing the firewall of the car, where does that connects to?
    I will appreciate if you can help.

    • @ShopLifeTV
      @ShopLifeTV  8 лет назад

      There is a specific orientation for the hoses, what year and model is it? Do you have a black and blue striped vacuum hose coming out of the firewall?

It seems to be coming from the somewhere near the intake manifold. I have no idea where it is supposed to live. I’ve spent a few days searching can’t find anything 😞

    • @ShopLifeTV
      @ShopLifeTV  8 лет назад +2

      Honestly, I learned mostly everything by just taking it apart and seeing how things worked. There are many resources though such as the forums that have well documented DIY's on many things. Look at bimmerforums and e46fanatics they are tons of resources throughout the BMW community, not so much on other cars though.
