Re: [diesel_mercedes] Fuel injection hose (77280SE)

 

I don't know this car, but my guess is that it is fuel injection so it will have a high pump pressure. You will need to get really good clamping on both ends.  I would try to find an inch of the half and put it in the 3/4 hose.   (Maybe you can reuse part of the old hose.)

Guys at parts houses I have talked to seemed to understand that fuel injection hoses have to be "good stuff" to deal with the pressure.  Ask them for help.

Good luck,

That connections to the fuel pump is like braided weeve.  It appears that it is about 1/2. 

Can one that is about 3/4 inch substitute for it if it is the right clamp?

The reason is the bosch fuel pump needs the 3/4 but the connection to the car is 1/2.

Also I could not come up with the 1/2.

Thanks again as always.
