Re: [MBZ] 1994 E320 (M104) No-Start

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

The leak was on the high pressure side of the filter, where the fuel enters 
under pressure from the pump. Maybe the filter was plugged up and starving the 
injection system.

Maybe I've fixed this?

Yesterday I diagnosed the fuel leak as poor seal at the fuel filter, 
which is next to the second fuel pump. Had a new filter, so installed 
that with new copper washers at the banjo fitting, fuel leak fixed.


Car started with no issues about 7 or 8 times (other than the cranking 
to fill up the new fuel filter canister). Drove it around a bit, 
engine runs strong and smooth, that was yesterday evening.


This morning it started fine when stone cold.

Maybe the old fuel filter was getting plugged up? I'm sceptical that a 
fast drip leak at the fuel filter would cause a no start condition.

Maybe I've fixed this?

Yesterday I diagnosed the fuel leak as poor seal at the fuel filter, which is 
next to the second fuel pump. Had a new filter, so installed that with new 
copper washers at the banjo fitting, fuel leak fixed.

Car started with no issues about 7 or 8 times (other than the cranking to fill 
up the new fuel filter canister). Drove it around a bit, engine runs strong and 
smooth, that was yesterday evening.

This morning it started fine when stone cold.

Maybe the old fuel filter was getting plugged up? I'm sceptical that a fast 
drip leak at the fuel filter would cause a no start condition.

I don't recall hearing of such a thing. I can see how it would be very
useful.

IIRC, Max, this is the light-bulb reader.

How do you know which codes come out which pins?

How do you clear the codes?

I think I did all that with the '94 E420 and '95 E320 we had, but it's
been a while and I have forgotten. Was the information in the codes file
I sent you (I think)?

As Curt said, it runs for a few seconds until the engine is started and
then runs continuously as long as the engine is running.

That might be the source of your hard start.

M104s do not have COP. They have a high-energy ignition system controlled
by a module on the driver's side fender well.

If there were something monitoring the current and something recording

Re: [MBZ] 1994 E320 (M104) No-Start

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

 The cars I've had with electric fuel pumps they run for a couple seconds when 
the key comes on and then shut off until the car is started.
Which reminds me I need to change the fuel filter on my Jetta. Put in the new 
filter, turn on the key, wait while the pump cycles, repeat a couple times 
until the filter is full, then start the car. I haven't tried it yet on the 
Jetta but I used that technique on Angie's Golf, worked a treat.
Sometimes when I can't hear something like a fuel pump I'll grab onto it, 
usually I can feel if its running even when I can't hear it.

Well I bought some starter fluid, and then immediately tried it and
the car started right up and stayed running.  I wish I had tried to
start without using the starter fluid to make sure it was still a
"no-start" condition.

Once started, the CE light was no longer lit.  I put on my code reader
at the diagnostic plug, got a few codes at pins 8 and 14, mostly
errors in communications between various gasser modules which are
mysterious to me.  Cleared all the codes.  Shut down the car, and it

I've seen those for conventional spark plugs.  Evan have one somewhere, 
but I don't see how do you use then for the COP system?


You could test for the current going  into the coil.  Wouldn't a bad 
coil show a code?

Yes, you may use starting fluid on a gasoline engine ...

I was going to suggest testing for spark as well -- it used to be easy to
do, just remove a plug wire, put a screwdriver in the boot so it contacts
the metal contact and hold it near some metal.

With the high-energy system those cars have, however, I am not entirely
sure that is how to do it.

probably a fuel issue.

Fuel pump relay / fuel pump is another possibility. I think that relay is

same for fuel pump relay
Same for battery, even though i t turns the engine over.

KISS:   Fuel, air, compression, ignition, and fast enough cranking speed.

I think it does, need to learn my way around this engine. No idea where that 
is, beyond somewhere on the engine, front or rear.

Fuel pump relay / fuel pump is another possibility. I think that relay is
