THIS IS A USED SCREEN AND HOSE (the used hose ony works on a W123 because it is short) for a 190D 240D 300D 300CD 300SD 300SDL 350SD 350SDL 300D 2.5 and E300D 1977 to 1999. This is an essential maintenance item. This screen can become plugged with crud and algae and will lead to gradual power loss and eventual stalling of the engine. Many are not aware there is a filter screen in the bottom of the tank. You can change all your other filters and lines and still be perplexed as to why your engine is starving for fuel. Located just above the right rear axle shaft.
