Hi guys
New to the forum and just want to say hello to all members and thank you all for input to help keep these wonderful cars where they should be and that on the tarmac not the garage concrete
I am currently driving a Mercedes clk200 convertible in black on a 08 plate
I also own a c180 estate and a c160 coupe sport both in silver on 05 55 plates
Clk is running like clockwork however not can be said for the estate the poor car was driving like a it was on a carpet of air till one morning got the dreaded chain rattle so I’ve taken her of road to replace whole timing gear
Now I have a question to all who could possibly help me out with this coupe I currently own
It’s is a c160 sport with the w207 engine in I believe it’s on a 55 plate with 145 k miles on
It’s had no end of services timing chains belts maf all replace in the last 6 months not because of any problem just as a matter of service
It’s acquired a problem that I carnt seam to solve I think to my knowledge it could be the fuel regulator but not 100% sure so here we go
Sorry for the long wind story
go out on a morning cold start first start of the day car cranks splutters you life cuts out then no start
Strong smell of unburnt fuel petrol out of exhaust
Pull fuel pump fuse in rear Sam 20amp car burst to life then cuts out due to lack of fuel replace fuel pump fuse cars starts then continues to run the flattens out to around 7 8 rpm then runs sweet as rest of day cold start happens all over again
Any help towards the matter would be gratefully welcome thank you and await your replies thank you
