Greetings all,

Just to clarify some of the folks out there scratching their heads wondering where there could possibly be seals at on the clear fuel lines. There are no seals on the clear lines but on the banjo fitting there is. As mentioned in a previous post the clear lines are heated in boiling water to cause it to be pliable during installation. Phil at Part Shop can give you the p/n for the clear line by the meter I think it is, but it's not real cheap to buy. Others have resorted to using translucent small diameter water line with clamps, and that one will work as well. I think the line will also respond to heated water, causing it to shrink around the fitting, but cools rapidly so the heat source can't be far from the car. I have this type of line installed on one Benz and it seems to work fine and is resistant to color change more so than the more rubber content MB hoses.

Charles
