Purpose and function in the fuel system

The presented fuel tank is a component from the Fuel tanks and filler pipes group, designed to work with the petrol supply system in Mercedes vehicles with C117, W176, and W246 bodies equipped with 4MATIC drive. It is responsible for storing fuel, maintaining the correct liquid level, and ensuring proper operating conditions for the fuel pump and associated equipment.

The tank's design is adapted to the specifics of the all-wheel-drive system, which allows for correct routing of lines, appropriate shaping of fuel chambers, and maintenance of required clearances relative to suspension and exhaust system components.

Compatibility and selection by part numbers

The tank has been developed as a part dedicated to specific Mercedes models, ensuring proper fitment to factory mounting points, chassis geometry, and the original fuel filler. Selection is based on the OEM part number and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with the specific engine version and vehicle model year.

In case of doubts during selection, it is recommended to compare catalog data with the vehicle documentation or identify the part by VIN to ensure that the tank will work with the existing fuel system and vehicle electronics.

Performance parameters and installation advantages

The fuel tank for a petrol engine is adapted for use with Petrol, taking into account the chemical properties and operating pressures typical for modern injection systems. The shape and arrangement of the connection ports allow for the maintenance of factory fuel and vent line routing.

• Factory fitment for C117, W176, W246 bodies with 4MATIC drive.
• Adapted for use with a petrol supply system.
• Compatibility with existing vehicle mounts and equipment.
• Reduced risk of leaks due to compliance with original geometry.

Thanks to the preservation of the original design, installation proceeds in an orderly manner, without the need for chassis modifications or interference with load-bearing elements, which is important from both a safety and repair durability perspective.

Component condition and service application

The offered fuel tank is a used part, making it an attractive cost-effective alternative to a new component while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. This type of component is particularly suitable for accident repairs, in cases of mechanical damage to the tank, corrosion of mounts, or the need to replace the element after interference with the fuel system.

Before installation, it is recommended to perform a standard leak test, check the condition of the ports and equipment mounting sockets, and thoroughly clean the interior of the tank to ensure trouble-free operation of the fuel pump and injectors.
