My 200 has a hard start issue and I'm suspicious the injectors are leaking. (Cranks a long time and when it does start the exhaust smells and looks rich like it was flooded.) I'm curious if replacing JUST the seals will correct the problem or do I need to change the injectors too. The car has 132K on it so I thought it may be just the seals. Am I correct? Anyone had a similar experience?
How difficult is this job? Do I need to take off the intake manifold? The Bentley manual suggests you can just pull out the injectors with the lines attached. How is this possible? From peering under the hood it looks like one would need to pull the intake manifold which does not look fun.
Any help is much appreciated.
