For 2 days I was stuck and couldn’t get my car to start. Thanks to you I managed to bypass the fuel heater and pre filter and found out my air leak actually was situated between the lifting pump and filter. Now it starts and runs like a clock. I cannot thank you enough for the tips!

Nice video thanks !

3/8ths or 10mm fuel hose is what you need

[@skellysgarage1095]

Where u have the feed from tank to lift pump before you cut that line and put the feed on that same port goes to a port under the shut off valve do i need to blank this off when i cut the hose for the feed or is it okay to just cut the hose ahd leave it open?

[@JohanForsman-pq6tb]

I just placed an order for 2ea. of your shut of valves. I have a comment on your video though, correct me if I'm wrong but the way I understand it, there's no reason to cut the line from the lift pump to the main filter (just keep as is).

[@jorgevazquez-fernandez6628]

what did you use to block off or plug the prefilter in & out?

[@BenzInjection]

Nothing. They can just be left open, same with fuel heater.

Can you tell me details of banjo bolt to eliminate the shut off valve?

​@@BenzInjectionstupid question but... If that gets deleted how will it shut off?

[@BenzInjection]

@@booobies11111 The computer tells the EDC on the pump to pull the rack back, which shuts down the fuel delivery. That's how it is done on mechanical pumps anyway. The SOV is just extra to make it shut down quicker.

@@booobies11111 The computer tells the EDC (electric governor) to pull the rack back, which cuts off fuel.

[@LSXREVIVAL]

Hi, What about the shutoff valve ? How does it turn off then?

[@BenzInjection]

The computer pulls the rack back, cutting off fuel. The shut-off valve just makes its about 1 second faster, but not needed.

[@LSXREVIVAL]

@@BenzInjection thanks for answering . Can an603 filter setup be used on it then? I'm wondering if the sean tracey tune will block that code from going off

[@jheric0ol]

So you bypass the pre fuel filter as well ? Or am I missing something

[@shanecall]

Both pre-filter and fuel heater

[@peterszollosi2778]

​@@shanecall how is it going? Your car starts well? I want do this too, but i dont want to bypass shut of valve, because i bought a new one

[@shanecall]

@@peterszollosi2778 you can leave the shut off valve if you want

[@loganl3478]

I did this. Followed all of the steps but when I try to shut my car off it seems to want to start running away? I don’t understand what I did wrong?

[@shanecall]

It's normal. Nothing to worry about.

[@loganl3478]

@@shanecall even if it kicks the idle up A lot?

[@shanecall]

@@loganl3478 yes. It's normal with EDC pumps. I imagine that's why Mercedes made a SOV for it. Not a big deal.
