Smile Buying Fuel Accumulator ??

My 79 450SL is SOMETIMES a bit hard to start when warm. Stars fine cold. Fuel distributor and warmup reg rebuilt 1000 miles ago (6 years ago). Has 84K miles and runs like a champ otherwise. Thought I would replace accumulator.I'm not sure if I replaced it 6 years ago..and can't find the paperwork. Just talked to Tom at MB Classic, and he priced a Bosch to me at $550. I've searched other suppliers, and they list BOSCH at around $200. Are they genuine ? I stay away from all things URO. Any suggestions appreciated. I used to check here and Benzworld...but they banned me for life for being a Republican, pro-life..pro-gun...and a law and order fan..Thanks..jv..

I do love though how you wrote “pro life and pro gun” in the same sentence, then you top it off with a fan of “law and order”... I think this is why democrats will never understand republicans. (I’m Canadian, so I’m healthy and generally try and not care, but my kids will never likely never be shot in a kindergarten class)

btw, how’d you make out with the accumulator? I got the same issue wondering g if you got anywhere with that part. The warm-start issue seems to be an issue with tons of fix avenues.

I see you follow the liberal,snowflake play book right out of the gate ! All Democrats can do is attack anything that does not fit the manifesto.. If you can't align pro-life and pro gun..at your age..there's no use in me trying. Do try to get the meaning of "law and Order" sourced. And, don't think for a minute that we will ever give our 2nd Am. rights. In fact, we just set a new all-time record of 3.3 MILLION NCIC checks in ONE month...Adios.................

I can't help with your accumulator. I just wanted to say that you are my kind of guy. Stand strong brother.

super simple installation. If you have the part that has the 2 inlet hoses they have that too. Go Red!
