Change Fuel Distributor - big problem.
Hi,
I posted exact thread at BenzWorld.org 1991 Mercedes SL500. Fuel distributor and EHA leak. Change remanufactured Bosch fuel distributor and new EHA. No more fuel leak. At the same time change all air distribution hoses to fuel injector including seals. Start the engine, idle fine for a minute or so and engine start to run really rough. step on accelerator engine die. Again start the engine, engine starts immediately and run rough. Again step on accelerator, engine die. Change Fuel distributor and EHA back to old unit (leaking units). Start engine, engine starts immediately and run rough. Step on accelerator, engine die immediately. Installed back remanufactured Bosch fuel distributor and new EHA. Change both fuel pumps, fuel filter and Fuel Hose/Line (Fuel Filter to Fuel Line). No luck. Check all fuses, no problem. Distributor cap and rotor, practically new (only use about 1000km). Now where do I start looking. Appreciate all pointers. Thanks. |

Fuel Pressure regulator
the diaphragm in the fuel pressure regulator may have broken leaking fuel through the vaccum hose into the engine intake, i would check here.

It's a BOSCH fuel remanufacture fuel distributor from Vertex auto. It's exactly the same as my old unit. The box says "Python Injection". Presume this remanufacture comes from "Python Injection". The FD part number is 0 438 101 016.

Can you check the current going to the EHA? It is measured in mill-amps, and there is a special harness that allows you to connect a meter.
It sounds to me like the EHA is not getting the right signal from the computer to provide fuel when you hit the gas. I believe that there is a potentiometer that indicates throttle position. If this signal isn't right, the computer won't know to provide enrichment and you will get stalling like you describe.

If you think the injectors might be obstructed, you should pull them individually and check the flow and spray pattern. It's also a good way to see if the FD is functioning properly. If the mechanical injectors exhibit problems, you should replace them.
To check the flow pattern, pull a single injector and observe the shape of the spray cone while cranking the engine. It should be uniform and be similar to the other injectors. You can measure the flow by measuring the volume of flow per a unit of time. A graduated cylinder works well for this test. Regards http://www.witchhunter.com/injectorfaq1.php4#what2 CIS, injectors, these are a mechanical injector. They don't clean well due to design, and the internal filters are not replaceable. Best to replace any suspect injectors as most are in poor shape due to internal rust.

The above link has a lot of Bosch K-Jetronic CIS technical information that should be sufficent to solve any issue with the Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection system. Just take your time and diagnose the problem and do the correct tests. To fully test and tune a K-Jetronic system you will need access to a K-jet pressure tester and exhaust gas analyzer to measure CO. Regards |
