Has anyone else felt, as I do now, that getting the pump/filter assembly out of the fuel tank on the 1100s is next to impossible? I turn it around, lift it this way and that and it is always catching on something. That something is usually the end of the arm for the fuel level float. I figure if I bend that by accident, the fuel level will forever be off. Could BMW have made the hole any smaller? Another 1/2 inch would be a big help. I took the same units out of a K75 in five minutes. The videos on YouTube show the whole unit just practically falling out of the tank. I don't think so. Any tricks to getting this thing out of the tank without damage?
All this just to change the fuel filter. I now see why people rig them to be outside the tank.
