I find it hard to believe that the hydraulic fluid tank is really a pressure reservoir
Can't be, it's plastic. Would explode.
There also seems to be some disagreement as to whether the system constantly recirculates fluid---in which case the health of the pump would be extremely important---
It must. The pump is four radial pistons. It's always pumping. Oh, and fuel filters can be sintered bronze. Restrictors such as those in the vacuum system, etc. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
