I'm not Bob! It's not leaking from under the banjo bolt because of hte copper washer, but from where the filter screws into the canister rim. The seal between the filter gasket itself and the inner rim of the canister is puddling with diesel.
BTW, the fuel filters no longer include this copper washer. On 11/6/06, Dwight E. Giles, Jr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Bob, Was it sealed before? Have you changed the copper washer under the filter bolt? We had that trouble with my brother's 240D on #2 fuel and a new washer from Rusty fixed it.

I can't properly seal the main fuel filter (spin-on canister) on her 1985 300CD. Is the fuel too "thin" to be stopped by the filter's rubber gasket?? > Bob Rentfro > _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
