Leaking fuel line

9594 Views 21 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  284037
I found a leaking fuel line. It's one of the steel fuel lines that runs along the chassis connecting the rear to the front.
I couldn't find a diagram of the fuel lines in my Service Manual CD so that I can zero in on the exact name of this steel pipe. It's the one connecting the bottom of the fuel tank on the fuel pump and filter side to the front.
Anyone has the fuel lines diagram with legend to post?
I think I am going to replace all of them while I am at it, so I also need to know of a good source to get them in addition to the rubber mounts that hold all the lines to the chassis.
Thank you
Drew

Here is a slightly broader view of the lines with part numbers in the left field. Don't forget to drop the "A" from the part number. Enter the part numbers into the search field on "parts dot com" website to get what the dealer would charge and what the discounted price from the web site would be. Do you need rubber buffer 38 or buffer 41?

My bet is that the dealer price and the parts dot com price will be very close after you account for parts dot com's outrageous shipping fee and the aggravation of receiving the parts one at a time over the next week from them.

Sorry, the last post that I have since deleted was not for your car. This is the 560 return line. Does it look correct?

Since you are in the U.S. it would probably save you some aggravation if you would sign up for the Mercedes Electronics Part Catalog (epc) so you wouldn't need to wait for one of us to look it up and post it. Free.

If you need something else looked up just yell. Here is a larger look at the part numbers for you for the first diagram posted:

Well, I was being helpful...much more so than most and not a hint of sarcasm. I also went to the trouble of looking up your prices on some of the smaller lines in the back by the tank and it is cheaper to use the dealer rather than pay for shipping. Looking at the 10 dollar range for the couple I looked up.

Hope you get it sorted.
I apologize for my outburst, will you forgive me?
Actually, I went back and re-read my post and realize that I put "free" in the wrong part of the sentence.

New context:
Since you are in the U.S. it would probably save you some aggravation if you would sign up for the Mercedes Electronics Part Catalog which is free for US residents so you wouldn't need to wait for one of us to look it up and post it.

No harm intended. A couple of price comparisons before shipping costs. If you are using windows just bring up the prior shots of the parts diagram and then click on your 100% icon in the bottom right of your screen for a clearer look at the numbers :
