Need 1 Piece Of Diesel Injector Line To Make Pump Timing Tool With

[Squiggle Dog]

I had my injection pump calibrated and need to reinstall it in my 1968 W110 200D. The factory service manual shows that I need a tool that looks like a short piece of injection line that is bent at an angle so I can see the fuel coming out of the first fitting. I want to make this tool myself but I need a short section of diesel injection line with a fitting on one end. I will use the fitting at one end of the line, do a 180 degree bend, then cut off the other end.

All I need is one piece of diesel injection line. I don't care if it is is bent or one of the fittings is damaged. No sense breaking up a good set of lines. The wrecking yards have not had any lately as they are one of the first things to be removed from the engines. I'm hoping to find one soon as this is my daily driver that I need to get back on the road and am borrowing someone else's car in the meantime.

I have hard lines from my 1979 300SD.

Those would work, but it would be a shame to cut one of them up. I'm hoping someone has a really trashed set or piece they wouldn't mind giving me for the cost of shipping.

I'll be buying those flex discs from you, though.

They haven't had any lately. They are one of the first parts that people take, like they are made of gold.

A 240D came into Pull-A-Part today so I got the injector lines. I hate to damage such nice lines, but my old ones are kind of rusty so maybe they will make a better donor set.
