fuel line clips

[The Ben]

****** broken one that goes into the fuel pump. The funny looking clips, same as the fuel filter clips.

Anyone know where I can buy them on-line as i'm a bit grounded, the pipe keeps popping off and spraying fuel everywhere... doh!

Many thanks

Not sure if they are available on their own, I will check and get back to you or someone on here may know,

hey thank you. I don't ,mind having to by the pipe too, just as long as it get one. The cars runs fine for a couple of mins then blows the pipe off. My fault I broke the 'u' shaped clip that fastens it all together!

You mean the white locking clip, the black pipe end is part of the pipe and only comes with a new pipe, It may be possible to use a cable tie as a temporary measure to hold the pipe in place until you get a new one..The clips do get brittle and break..

Ye that's it, the locking clip. Can you buy them online or do I have to go to Merc dealer???

You'll need to buy a complete new pipe - but, they aren't particularly expensive.

As an interim, can you swap the clip from a pipe end which is on the suction side?, like the one from the fuel heater?

Does anyone know what the part number is for that pipe with the clip on? when I rang up yesterday the bloke didn't know what I was talking about (albeit, my description was a but vague and he sounded a bit dopey )
