Hope that works out for you. I will say I killed 2 or 3 of those 340lph pumps from a couple of different manufacturers. Had them warrantied - sent back and manufacturers confirmed reduced flow / failure. And I don't think I had 5k miles out of any pump. Not sure why I couldn't keep them alive. Best of luck, maybe that brand is better than the others. Looks like you have a patch harness and so an aftermarket ECU. I'd feed a fuel pressure sensor to it so you can identify lean conditions which will be caused if fuel flow / fuel pressure is inadequate. Good luck with the build!
Hey brotha, I’m about to buy your file and wanted to ask. What did you use to plug the holes up in the intake filter? You printed something or just bought some caps?
Great video! I changed out the valve and didn't realize a lot of the ticking noises I had were because of this part. My original one was still intact but must have been leaking.
I’ve been looking at Greddy intercoolers for my Aristo. Some are saying VVTI compatible. I have a 97 as well completely stock still. $741 VVTI compatible are around $1,200 Do you know if there is a difference?
Thanks for the video walk through of your install! I have a Greddy FMIC and Koyo Radiator waiting to go in my swapped GS300…was thinking the same thing you were with as much popularity these cars are getting not many project videos online!
For anyone doing this job: the hose needs to be heated before pulling ! Also the guys solenoid is toast , if the cap is dirty dark yellow like the one in the video then it needs replacement.
Hey man appreciate the video. I think this is a problem in my 2014 E550 W212 M278 I really wasn't paying it any mind now I see it's an easy fix. Thanks also for putting the part number out.
Thanks for the video! Just ordered the Greddy FMIC for my Aristo. I run the HKS-RS full intake kit, with an ab-flug airbox designed for the HKS intake. Notice any power difference after installing the intercooler?
It's not talking crap....it looks great but the amount of tremendous heat coming off the engine is such a HP killer. I'm pushing 600hp/700tq, I will only trust fresh air coming in from the grill with performance air filters. I'm all for looking great too, but won't compromise power man. MB spends millions of dollars on designing the intake setup and you go and destroy it with an $80 setup. Trust what they are doing, get a solid tune, change the air filters, install intake spacers, high-flow cats and delete resonator. The car will be untouchable!
Hey, for the rear, how were you able to put the largest bolt thats nearest to the center of the car, back in? After I put the new spring in and jack up the spring cup, the hole doesnt line up, because it creates negative camber as the spring compresses. So vertically, i can make the holes level, but horizontally the holes become far apart.
Good video, did you flush the oil in the hose? I check mines today and it’s missing the whole orange disc in its entirety. As soon as I pulled the hose oil leaked from it 😢
