Its always pumping fluid. Crawl under one and play with the level arm, it will respond to any up and down movement.

Princess auto carries a lot of hydraulic equipment and accessories and TSC stores as well.your looking for a continuous duty 12v unit with appropriate output pressure.not sure what your car will need but perhaps someone else will chime in

The one i have was from a toyota convertable.
It pumps for a while then turns off then starts again almost like its saving its self.

A couple years ago I had a Euro TD that I was going to make into a 240TD so I had to come up with another SLS pump. I used a "convertible top" pump. I had new hosed made up and the pump mounted then abandoned the project. The guy that bought the TD got it going and said it worked fine, only thing is, he had to use a different filter. I found a "generic' convertible top pump on eBay.

Those are power hungry little pumps, no way I'd let one run all the time. A one way hydraulic solenoid valve could be added to the hydraulic fluid circuit (on the return line), it would then become a manually controlled system, power up and gravity down, at the drivers discretion... I'm wrestling w/ this now... heres my pump, its mounted in the spare tire well. http://rbk3.com/mbz/83td/hyd1.jpg http://rbk3.com/mbz/83td/hyd5.jpg

This is how someone else did it.
So i guess you have to kill the oil canister and filter. http://www.benzworld.org/forums/w123-e-ce-d-cd-td-te-class/1344008-electric-sls-success.html?highlight=Electric+SLS

why not get a small belt driven pump- like maybe even a power steering gear pump, and use that?
I imagine it would work fine. if you didnt care about the AC, you could mount it there. or up by the cc actuator? how many peeps have functioning ac/cc?? I also would imagine that you could replace the leveling valve w/ an electric switch to run only when needed, or add a switch to an arm on the rear torsion bar.

What about the hydraulic pumps that are found in "low riders"? Those use some very high powered pumps but I think they also use more than one battery.

I bought the hydraulic system from a VW Cabriolet, looks like it or something similar would be a suitable pump provided it is not running continuously.

I'm guessing with some thought an Accumulator Sphere from a Citroen Xantia or BX could be used as a pressure store.
--Dont think you could use a sphere from the M.B. as this has the bump/rebound valves inside as far as I know. The Citroen Accumulator Sphere is made for this very job as a pressure reservoir, running at about 50-100 bar, as I recall and has no valves in the sphere itself.... A sensor switch would then cycle the pump as needed to give a pressure within the normal range for the SLS system....
