    Hi My c250 is playing up again!!! has started not to start on the button and when eventually I get it started (about an hour) you can see air bubbles in the fuel lines. The tank is half full and when I filled it up the air bubbles disappear and it starts fine. I have checked to see any leeks...

    C250 TD 1998 heavy black smoke after seal change fuel pump pressure valves

    Hi Alex Many thanks for the reply very detailed and a little scary for me to undertake but will give it a go. Is the access plate accessible if I remove the black shut off valve on the side of the pump? And how do I know I have aligned the plunger barrel correctly? Again many thanks.

    Hi NC I have the exploded view of the delivery valve and an explanation with diagrams showing the procedure (it's from Parrot of Doom) in that he says he was told not to take 7g or 7k out but he dose take one out and has no problem.

    Hi Dieselman I will give that a go. just trying to locate a 22mm socket to take it out. The car has done 105K now so seeing I have the car apart maybe a good idea to change all the injectors looks like you can get a set for around £80.00. Have the washers already. Just want to know before I...

    C250 TD 1998 heavy black smoke after seal change fuel pump pressure valves

    Thanks for that link reading through he took out the long cylinder under the small one i wouldn't have thought that would be a good idea.

    C250 TD 1998 heavy black smoke after seal change fuel pump pressure valves

    Hi Silversaloon What do you mean by (iirc)? Some people do say that removing the small cylinder a centre valve is not what you want to be doing and if you do you need to put it back the same way (but there are no markings or special grooves that I can see) and when you ask mercedes parts they...
