560 fuel pump/filter reseal
Got a seeping fuel pump on my 560SL. The pumps themselves are quiet and seem to be fine. I figure that I'll go ahead and replace and seals, rubber hoses, etc. back there when I change the filter. I've never done any work back there before, so could someone please tell me what parts I ought to replace while I'm in the area and have everything apart? Should I do the valve (#14)? The other items I have marked with arrows I think I should probably replace. Let me know if that's correct and if anything else ought to be done.

I do not see it in your picture but I just had to replace the fuel line from the output of the fuel filter in my 86 560SL. http://catalog.worldpac.com/mercedesshop/sophio/quote.jsp?clientid=catalog.mercedesshop&cookieid=21V0I9EQT2AO1DS9RW&baseurl=http://catalog.peachparts.com/&partner=mercedesshop&year=1988&product=E5000-74190&application=000543241
Get a good look at it for rusted bolts. Look at #143 also to see if they need to be replaced. I got lucky and it all came apart after using PB Blaster. It is a very smelly messy job. You will spill gas so be careful. |

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll take a look.
