Fuel lines
« on: May 29, 2017, 17:00:48 »
Hi,

I am currently improving the undercarriage of my 1970's 280SL and I need some info on the fuel lines running bellow the car.
a. Can you tell me the diameter of the line that sends fuel from tank to engine? And it's original part #?
b. And the diameter of the line that returns fuel to the tank? And it's original part #?
c. Is the fuel line from the vapor canister a plastic one?
Many thanks
Francisco

Hello Francisco,

I think you can find them here, as example: http://www.sls-hh-shop.de/main/en/mercedes-230-280sl-w113-/07-mech-injection-air-intake-/07-a-injection-system

#41 and #74 on the picture.

Hi Joahn,

Thank you very much.
I was looking for it on the wrong place.
Do you happen to know if the vapour line from the vapou canister can be a plastic one?
Many thanks
