Question Where's the thread on the fuel cut off feeling we're having?

I can't find the thread.....It's 34 today on the way home and I hit it once, well
it only lasted to 40 mph when it felt like the fuel was cut off with the dash in your face feeling. Before I do any other mods to this car, I really want this fixed. Thanks all-

search....theres been a few threads about this lately, one started by me. My car wouldnt start, fuel pump relay was bad, replaced it, still no start, crank position sensor was good, right side fuel pump was dead. Ordered a new one $1,200 but One of the guys from naperville mercedes told me that they get parts from tradenation so i called them and they hooked me up for $830.

cant we just use a similar spec Walboro fuel pump that would be way cheaper than an 830-1200 fuel pump?

That price is crazy. I don't think mine is the pump but something else. I recall someone getting sample settings from other members when the cut off takes place and I just forget who and can't find the thread.

I also wonder if the SC belt is slipping and considering the code3 belt wrap kit though I have just put a new belt on only 2000 miles ago. I know it's not wheel spin nor do I think it's like the other post with the control issue in the pedal.

I needed the right side replaced. Called walbro, checked with srt6(they have external pump), called like 20 junk yards. Tried to find the actual pierberg pump that sits inside the fuel pump assembly and didn't find that for the c32 either so after the car sitting for like 3 weeks at the mechanic I gave up and just ordered OEM.

Its coming in tomorrow!!!!! So excited lol.
