Thanks Bruce

On my '75 164E, it uses an electric fuel pump (just replaced it..$350 Bosch). My 164 runs flawlessly. When I turn the key on, there is a short "buzz", maybe not even 2 seconds, and then it stops. I was told that was something like a priming injection of fuel.

The one on the '76 operates the same way, it just has a constant buzz and it does not stop. My mechanic told me that means it is ready to go, if it hasn't already.

I did find a NOS Bosch one on Ebay, one that fits the car and does not have to be adapted for $155. After doing some checking, I found the part number on my old pump and made the match on Ebay
