I'd like to preface this by saying that about one year ago I've done the following:
Replaced all fuel line o-rings (green ones from MB)
Fixed one injector with high leak-off
Replaced the fuel line from filter to low-pressure pump
Replaced fuel filter
Two years ago the previous owner changed the seals in the high-pressure pump
About a couple of months ago I've changed the seals on the injector return nipples.
What the car does is this: it starts perfectly, idles for a few seconds then dies. And it takes a very long crank to start back again. Then it will run normally and won't do it until it sits longer than 24 hrs. It only manifested like this three times ever, as it's used daily and doesn't usually stay off longer than 24 hrs.
One time, the next day after shutting off, after starting the idle dropped briefly about 200 rpm when idling, then everything was normal.
No error codes, no visible fuel leaks and no other symptoms (loss of power/cutting out)
I've read that the o-rings in the fuel pressure regulator might dry off and cause problems
Thanks in advance.
