560SL - Install Bosch Fuel Distributor & Sealing Ring for Control Piston

Update: For some reason I forgot to include the part number for the fuel line clips. Here is the part #: 117-078-00-41
In this detailed video, I install the M117 Bosch fuel distributor and the sealing ring for the control piston on my 1987 560SL. This is one of my best and most detailed videos to date. Please subscribe to support my UA-cam channel.
I am documenting every part of the 560SL restoration build . The idea is to end up with the best documented 560SL rebuilds on the Internet.
Links to the manual and links to all tools used in this video are below.
I want everyone who visits my channel to know about a friend of mine named Tasos. His videos inspire me to be more like him. He is so much better than I am. You can find his UA-cam channel at:

If you did not measure the piston depth, Bosch says the base recess is .6 millimeters. You can find this information on the cis-jetronic.com website. Here’s a PDF with instructions for rebuilding that provides this information and more: cis-jetronic.com/public_doc/0...
