Replacing the fuel accumulator and restoring the fuel pump assembly

Mercedes 1983 R107 380SL project

I had to replace the fuel pump accumulator as the system was losing pressure, it was indeed leaking fuel from the back tube.
As I was in there, I completely restored the fuel pump assembly.

I am an enthusiast doing this in my free time and sharing for your entertainment. Do not take these videos as technical advise.

Working with fuel is dangerous, disconnect the battery and remove - turn off ignition sources, work in a very well-ventilated area, avoid breathing vapors.
