Following on from the fuel starvation issues I encountered a couple of weeks ago , and having replaced the fuel filter and prefilter , I got round to replacing the tank strainer the other day .
Since this seems to be quite a common issue , particularly on Diesel models , I thought a few...

My sudden decision to retire early and take a reverse gap year has resulted in the reluctant decision to sell the Beast.... Recent service at Wayne Gates Indie ("B" + plus plugs, Brake Fluid, Air cleaners/pollen filters, transmission fluid...
right guys i know this has been covered a zillion times, but when i bought the merc i ran her down until the fuel light came on and all was ok, since then ive covered about 3000 miles on 100% biodiesel ( my volvo v40 common rail has done 26thousand on my stuff so i know its top grade...!!!)...
Does anyone know where the fuel tank strainer is on an S210 E300TD (estate)? Also any hints, tips and advice on changing them?
This is prior to using veg oil in my car for the first time so they don't clog up straight away as I'm not sure when it was last changed if at all.
Many thanks in...
Hello, can anyone give me info on this? Know the current size is 66ltr but what would be the larger size? Is it still available as an option? Been spending a lot of time viewing used C63 on the net and some have it and some don't. There is 2012 ex demo for sale at merc bristol with it. Cant see...
Hi,
when the car is in the sun , I know, its not often here, and I open the tank cap first thing before starting the car, the tank is a little pressurised due to the fuel expending as it warm up. Then a Ssshhhh sound can be heard as the air goes out.
Is the breather working both ways? To let air...
Does anyone know how many miles to the tank a new E63 does with the new BiTurbo engine?
I have one coming in May and was interested if they were much better than the old 6.3.
After owning Toyotas for the last twenty years, I took the plunge and bought a 55 plate CLK 280. I love the car, but in the four weeks I've owned it I've already had a couple of 'faults'. First a cam sensor needed replacing and today, with fuel in the tank and a range of 30 miles showing, it ran...
Looking for a replacement coolant expansion tank for my '94 e220 coupe W124.
Thought it would be easier than spending ages cleaning the sludge out of my current one.
If anyone has one please PM me.
Thanks
My Indie has just told me Im leaking fuel from what appears to be the drain on my C240. Does that sound repairable or am I looking at selling the children.....?:doh:
I have brimmed my ml and am going to see what mileage I can get.
What concerns me however is the fact I done 20 miles and the needle stayed put on full. However this morning I went to work (5 miles away) and it dropped by 1/8!!
Is this normal?
Can any other ml270 owners post their full tank...
My 2000 CLK55 AMG failed its MOT today, the tester said a petrol pipe above the diff was badly corroded and leaking, The garage said that to replace would probably involve removal of the fuel tank, exhaust, rear diff & rear sub-frame. They were not interested in doing the work due to the...
Hi Chaps,
(ive tried searching this and cannot seem to find) I know there is a thread on this somewhere.
But is it indeed a 70lit tank?
Just filled up a full tank @ 65 lit. I did 44 miles today AFTER the reserve light came on giving me 355miles in total for the tank. Or should i say when I...
standard capacity of tank 62 litres + a little more in the spout.
But was there ever a larger fuel tank option (like in some older mercs) ?
I have squeezed 450 miles from a tank of fuel in the w202 c230k before but want more. No comments about diesels please!

The level in my coolant expansion tank dropped sufficiently to bring on the warning light. I topped it up with the engine still warm. I don't know how low it was before hand.
Now the engine is cold the level is much lower than I was expecting.
Where is the correct "cold"...
Hi All,
Due to a large number of helpful people within this group i am back again!
I decided yet again to pour my life saving in to the fuel tank today £90:eek: but when i got home i noticed a whining noise coming from underneath the drivers side, after looking around it seem like it could...
The car came to a stop few weeks ago, fuel starvation, here is what was in the tank, this car, to my knowledge, was only run on diesel for 120,000 milres.
This is a wee spooky, not for the fainted heart :p
