Fpr: engine dies after startup 700

Hi all,

I have a 1988 740 turbo, b230ft, stock. Car has been driving great and then I stop at the store, start the car and within a few seconds it dies (pretty sure fuel related). It wouldn't start back up for a while so I went swapped a known good fuel pump relay and the problem continued.

Got the car towed home and started it so I pulled it into my parking spot. Pulled the vacuum line for the fpr and it reeked of gasoline. So I am planning to replace that tommorow.

Another thing is my in line fuel pump is quite noisy. Could a faulty fpr cause this noise or am I looking at a new fuel pump as well? Also I can hear the intake pump whirring.

Thank you for any input.
