This high-quality fuel hose has a length of 45 cm and is mounted in the engine compartment as part of the fuel system of Mercedes models equipped with a fuel cooler. The hose forms the connection between the fuel cooler and the return line to the fuel tank. This is a direct replacement for the original Mercedes fuel hose with OEM number. A1074702875.

After decades, the original Mercedes fuel hoses are often due for replacement. The original Mercedes fuel hoses are on the inside provided with a hard vinyl layer, while the exterior consists of rubber. Due to aging, the vinyl layer becomes hard and brittle. At the same time, the rubber on the outside also gradually loses its flexibility and strength. As a result, the hose can tear or even break off completely without clear warning. This can lead to fuel leakage, starting problems, and in the worst case, a fire hazard.

Therefore, always check during maintenance whether the hose is still firmly attached to the connections. This fuel hose is slid over the connections at the factory without hose clamps. Due to aging, the rubber outer layer gradually loses its elasticity and clamping effect, causing the hose to sit less tightly on the connections.

If the hose can be easily twisted or pulled from the connection without significant force, it must be replaced immediately. This is a clear indication that the hose has lost its clamping effect and the risk of fuel leakage has increased significantly.

For this reason, we recommend replacing all remaining original Mercedes fuel hoses preventively, even if they still look good on the outside. With these hoses, the age of the material is a much more significant risk factor than the number of kilometers driven.
