steve,

im only worried about disconnecting all this stuff, then not knowing how to put them back. This is my first Mercedes Benz ever. I have worked on Chevy, Ford, and others cars before, but not something even close to a german car.

How about this. What if I pull the Fuel Distributor out, get an air blower, and blow air through the incoming fuel port of the distributor to see if fuel comes out through all six chambers? Is that a good idea? Will I be able to see if the fuel distributor is good or not?

The problem with my car, I do not know of. I cannot find the problem. The only sign I am getting that leads me to believe that the fuel distributor is bad is that a) the EGA Valve which connects to the distributor on the side is leaking gas, b)the car will not start anymore, c) there is electricity working in all spark plugs, d) the economy gauge reads all the way to the red, e) the car automatically smells like gas when cranked.

PEACE!
