Removing and Replacing an Older Mercedes Diesel Fuel Tank - On Demand Video

Product Details

This is an important maintenance item that you have heard Kent talk about before. Be sure to see his video by clinking on the link below.. This screen is located in the bottom of the fuel tank and can become plugged with crud and algae and will lead to gradual power loss and eventual stalling of the engine. Many are not aware there is a filter screen in the bottom of the tank. You can change all your other filters and lines and still be perplexed as to why your engine is starving for fuel. Located just above the right rear axle shaft. But it is not easy to get out without the right tool!!

This kit includes the following:

  • New Genuine Mercedes Brand Fuel Tank Screen
  • Custom Socket by Kent Bergsma to Remove Screen
  • New Outlet Fuel Hose of Screen
  •  17 mm combination wrench to use on special socket ( also excellent wrench for alternator bolts and injector hard line fittings).

PLEASE NOTE:  The wrench in this kit will only work on the special socket.  You will also need a 19 mm wrench to loosen and tighten the fuel hose fitting. Sorry NO WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS available at this time.
