mercedessource Product - Standard Kit for U.S. models: ALSO FITS 1981 to 1985 380SE and SEL Almost all 380s need this badly due to age and neglect. Rotten hoses are often overlooked. Weak pumps and plugged filters cause all sorts of engine performance problems. All 380SL, 380SE, and 380SEL owners take note. Even if you acquire a nice 380 like Kent's Cherry you are going to need some or all of these components ( unless of course it was recently done by a competent mechanic ). I see too many pumps or filters replaced and the old fuel hoses left in place by not-so-competent "professional" mechanics. Don't believe me? Watch the video below and Kent with show you a good example. Bad hoses are the most obvious but while you are changing those you want to replace your aging fuel pump and old filter. You will also most likely need a new fuel accumulator ( sold separately ) especially if the car has not been regularly driven or has been sitting in storage for long periods.
