Hi all,
My CLK broke down last week on way to work. Engine just stopped coming off a roundabout. AA arrived and when plugged in it was showing 20bar in the fuel rail. The guy suggested that it was the low pressure pump which I have changed, and after much cranking rail is still only reading 20 bar. Is it likely HP pump? I know the guy I bought car from a yr ago said he’d rebuilt it and there is no apparent leaking. Any ideas where to start would be appreciated. I’ve rented a car for the week but need to decide on whether to repair or replace..
There are no engine management codes present. Fuel pressure or otherwise?
Car has done 260k miles and been giving some black smoke under acceleration.
