Leaking Diesel Pump - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

DieselNovice · #1 10-09-2006, 06:46 PM

I have an 87 300SDL (Calif) with a leaking injector pump. It looks like I need to replace some "O" rings in the pump. BUT, I don't know how and can't seem to find a good (read - QUALIFIED) mechanic that can do the work for a REASONABLE amount. Not that i think the dealers are overpriced!.
I am in the Riveside or Orange, California area. If anyone can recommed a good mechanic, I would appreciate it.
Otherwise, is it difficult to do the work myself? Adjusting it is what scares me!
Thanks for the help.

Is the pump leaking fuel or engine oil?

View the DIY articles and pictures or maybe it's under links. I posted a complete thing on how to do that, for my 300d.
