Fuel Pressure Regulator

My fuel pressure regulator is internally leaking. I have found this company skandix.de which is selling reproduction parts of d jetronic fuel pressure regulators and I was wondering if this has been used by any others and to what effect?  www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/engine/fue...e-regulator/1018592/

I have a 1973 Mercedes Benz 450 SEL US model. 

Thanks,
John
 

Hi John,

that seems to be a new product since end of last year. I see that for the first time.

New to me, too...
There are alternatives that are less expensive.
But this seems to be a perfect fit.

Did you read the description and what they say here: www.skandix.de/en/news/new-djetronic-fue...sure-regulator/2902/ : "The fuel pressure regulators are now available in our shop under the numbers 1071886 and 1061995 . As already mentioned, they can also be used in BMW, Mercedes, Opel and other vehicles with D-Jetronic."

I would trust the product... there is a warranty of 2 years in Germany.
But I have the advantage the company is less than 50km away from my home...
I don't know the conditions if the item is shipped to your country.

Regards
Norbert


 

Seems like a trustworthy product. I think I will buy one

Hi John,

please report how that product works.

I will. Dr-Djet thanks for the quick reply. Further question: I want to install an inline fuel pressure gauge and I was wondering if you had any recommendations as to where/which gauge I should buy and place in the system.

Thanks,
John
