Chris,

that is the best news i've heard all weekend re "not too much money". sure, if you have the part numbers, thats fine, though i am gonna give rusty a call tomorrow.

i've always been leery of european cars b/c some of my friends whove owned bmws and mercedes always complained about parts pricing and service experiences.

now when i crack that nut loose, i'm guessing that the vacuum pressure will be released and some fuel will come out. to repressurize, is it just a matter of screwing that nut back on until its almost tight, firing the engine up until you see fuel coming out, and then retightening it? i mean, no matter b/c it will leak, but when i get the right part(s), is that the sequence to repressurize the line?

thanks,
bob
