Just wanted to share pics of the replacement of two fuel pumps, the fuel accumulator and 4 hangers

Opened up the cover protecting the assembly:


Replace those hangers, they're cheap!


Old hoses



Old and new: fuel accumulator (notice the new one has a slightly longer body, but shorter tube; in contrast the old one has a shorter body but longer tube - same overall length though) - upgraded design?




Old and new: fuel pumps


This old one looks tired, but still ran well except for the weeping fuel


Probably original? Still has MB logo


Brand new Cohline-made hose, sold by MB



Brand new Bosch fuel pumps


Everything installed, ready to be buttoned up


We also replaced the differential oil



No more clunking when downshifting! No more fuel smell either. Starts right up also, no stumbling at startup. Hopefully this increases MPG slightly also.
