Yep, I'll be doing that next time thats for sure..truth be told I knew I should have done that but installed the filter empty and then realised I forgot to fill it up and though, feck it, I'll just suck the fuel though the lines to the filter how hard can it be?

The point turbomart makes about the o-rings is valid and something I am aware of but thought they may be readily available as a common fuel injector o-ring. Sadly not.

OK so a bit of good news today.

I made a few phone calls to Jeep and Mercedez Benz and got some pricing on the parts drover listed above.

Quote:
Filter to Pump :
MB A6650700532
Jeep 05080482AA possibly $50

Pump to fuel rail:
MB A6120703232
Jeep K05140798AA possibly $120
Pricing:
Filter to Pump :
MB A6650700532 $40.41 + GST (o/night order)
Jeep 05080482AA $44.20 + GST (o/night order)

Pump to fuel rail:
MB A6120703232 $120.48 + GST (see my notes below)
Jeep K05140798AA $115.40 + GST (o/night order)

So apparently Jeep have no listing on any serviceable parts within the hose assembly. Mercedes on the other hand, list O-rings only (clips are listed in the parts diagram but are not available in Aus and according to the guy at Merc, not available at all even if I were to order from o'seas) Now, my note as per the price above is this. The part shown in the Mercedes parts breakdown is a straight through fuel line whereas the Jeep part has a T-piece connector on it. It is actually a different part number. The Mercedes part number for the correct fuel line (which I do not have as I did not have a pen on me at the time) has no serviceable items such as o-rings or clips listed (ala Jeep).

So, in a nutshell, I lucked out and found some o-rings off a replacement fuel line which is not identical to the one on the Jeep but is used in the Mercedes Benz Sprinter vans. The correct fuel line which suits the Jeep motor was quoted at ~$190+ GST.

Anyway, the o-rings are slightly different in appearance however after checking the Mercedes Fuel lines to confirm, they are the currently supplied o-rings on the replacement fuel lines.

The O-Ring part # is MB A06019970645 - $3.35 inc GST ea

A quick check on the MB computer systems reveals that basically every MB dealership carries them (one dealer had 60 in stock). I purchased them from Central Star Auto House in Berwick, VIC who had 2 and I bought both, they are expecting more in next week.

Here is a pic showing the old O-ring and the new ones.


Here is 2 pics showing the hose which the O-ring came from, this is the Pump-Injector Hose



Here is a pic showing the broken clip on the hose


Here is a pic showing the cable tie used to close off the broken clip, I know it sounds crude but it is very effective at locking the clip closed and will do the job until I can afford to purchase the full replacement line.


Here is a pic of the fuel line bleeder. The cap is removed and fuel is sucked out of here. It is a little more complicated than it sounds but has been covered in previous posts and is also in the manual.

Good write up thanks.

You'll probably leave that cable tie there for ever - like the one I have after I stuffed the clip on the top of my fuel filter....

There was no way I was touching any other fuel clip after I broke a bit off the clip on my fuel filter and I used the same zip tie method.
The mechs at my workshop gave me a few to try out size wise but I'm yet to get to them, they have all sizes for the Volvo and Kenworths.

I broke the stupid clips on my ZG fuel filter so just replaced the hose and used normal hose clamps, sadly won't work on the CRD

Great piccies.
