Ok here is the problem. My mechanic, MB certified, tells me that it is just
a matter of time before my fuel pump goes. It surges, some days worse than
others, load, temperature, etc. It has been doing this for eight years now,
but admittedly it is getting worse. Anyway, a quote from the parts desk at
the local dealer tells me the part I need is 602-070-45-01-88 for the
remanufactured one (1418.00). The ebay one at 400.00 claims to fit 90 to 93
2.5 turbos with numbers of 602-070-45-13-01. The clinker is that the fuel
pump that is on my engine has the numbers 602-070-65-01. My mechanic has
mentioned to me that the electrical connections might be different and just
to wait until it craps out. Which is probably what I will do. Has anyone
run across this before?
Your mechanic is there and has worked on the car so he's one up on me,
BUT.....
The symptoms you describe are almost NEVER the injection pump. They
almost always relate to air intake, EGR, vacuum modulation of the
wastegate, pressure signals to the ALDA or the computer that controls
the emissions system and engine idle. If any of these is outside the
correct range, the engine WILL surge - even with a PERFECT injection pump.
What is the acceleration time from 0-62 mph??
