Accumulator

[Merc]

Hi

I was on a site last night looking through it,and I found someone had a cure for this "wont start when warm" carry on (till' about 5/10 later),they replaced the fuel accumulator and all was fine.
So I'm just wondering if this is the culprit causing all this hassle.
I called merc earlier to price it and they £65+vat,but the guy advised me to replace all the bracketry & bolts with it,(about another £20) as he said "cause' its under the car it gets "weatherised",and the bolts & everything usualy break",so all in it would cost the best part of a "ton" for it all,would this be right,I mean this accumulator thing (if thats the right spelling!) could be what I need to replace,well maybe!!
