Mercedes
Fuel Distributor EHA Valve - Fuel Smell
|
|
|
|
| I
smell gas in the morning under the hood… |
| The
first place we used to look on all vehicles equipped
with Bosch KE injection is the E.H.A. valve. BTW -
that stands for electro hydraulic actuator. The E.H.A.
valve is located on the side of the fuel distributor. |
|
|
| First
remove the air cleaner assembly. After the air
cleaner assembly is removed you will be able
to see the fuel distributor. The Mercedes fuel
distributor is the size of a Big Mac with a
bunch of steel fuel lines coming out of the
top of it. On the side of the Mercedes fuel
distributor you will see a small black rectangular
part, held in by 2 screws, with an electrical
connector. That small black rectangular piece
is the E.H.A. valve. The valve leaks not the
O rings behind it. The valve cannot be repaired
and must be replaced. |
|
| |
| Also
make sure you check every fuel line coming to
and from the Mercedes fuel distributor to make
sure there are no leaks. You must be extremely
careful to take precautions when working with
gasoline. Check your Mercedes service manual
for the proper procedures for your chassis and
Mercedes engine |
