Hi there,

I have a 99 e300 turbodiesel with 295k. I love the car but I've been chasing fuel problems for a year....I'm at a loss. So I figured I'd throw it out tithe world of master mb minds. Thanks n advance.

So starting a yeAr ago I noticed air in the lines. Naturally I started with replacing filters and all the old hard lines under the hood. The bubbles mostly went away, except a few minor bubbles. I started also experiencing a major nail at idle, and at almost 300 I had the injectors serviced. I reinstalled them wi new crush washers. The problem is still happening but with added symptoms. Before the injectors service I had bad turbo lag, and it's been getting worse, after injectors, there's no difference. Now my newest problem when it gets below 1/4 tank it gets a ton of bubbles and dies. I'm guessing tank?

Also a little puddle of diesel/oil on the ground sometimes. I've replaced the dv seals, all the lines and lines to the injectors, the fuel thermostat (because I broke it) the sob o ring and the egr o ring. What else should I look for? The bottom of the ip is wet when I clean it It just gets wet again, but I can't pinpoint it. I need help I want this car back to normal, I hate driving it like this
