I'm installing an E36 M3 fuel filter on my car, because I had a stuck open injector in 2019 that killed my rod (and engine) after 2 years.

Chose that filter because it's easy for hose connection, metallic housing, and allows enough flow for V8 engines like M60 4.0L. I hope it will allow a little more yet, to attend the stock S65 fuel need.

I'll try to put it under the car, and for that, I'll need to cut the fuel steel tubing and put the filter with hoses connecting to the tubing.

That filter has only two hose connections, no return line, which is good for this application.

I'm aware there is no consensus on the causes of injectors sticking open in this engine, actually not a single clue about it, but as BMW used inline fuel filters until the E46 and I don't hear of E46s having stuck injectors, I'll bet on that as a cause: dirt/debris on injectors. Please, don't say E92 has a filter in pump suction, because if it doesn't get clogged, then it doesn't retain any dirt.

I'll report back when it's running or if I find any obstacle for the adaption.
