W123/C123 Differences between fuel tank to engine diesel fuel lines

Folks, I'm about to embark on changing the hard fuel line that runs from my fuel tank to the engine compartment, on my 1983 300d sedan.

I'd like to know if there are differences between the fuel line on this car and a 1977 240d, or a 1978 300cd coupe

Thanks guys!

not really, just different ends, so you may need to add a longer rubber hose on an end or two

diesel has a fuel return, pretty sure all the gasoline cars do as well so just make sure to connect everything up

note: i may be mistaken

I believe you will find the line for the coupe is 2" shorter than the sedan.
