Burned up cars on a fairly regular basis. D-Jet fuel lines should be
inspected for leaks at each oil change.
I've done all of min, including the hoses between injector and rail,
which is a huge PITA. However, they no longer leak, and hence I get
peace of mind AND 2 mpg better fuel milage.

As if to prove the point made in one of the posts sent in response
to my question about the 450SLC... this morning my W108 4.5
developed a fairly substantial fuel leak in the rubber hoses on the
pressure rail. There had been some weeping before, but today it
became a gusher, emitting a drop of fuel about every 1-2 seconds
from the input line into the fuel rail.
Anyway, no big surprise as this is a known issue with old D-jet
cars and is easy to fix.
Just thought I'd weigh in and say, yes it does happen and it's not
just a D-jet myth!
