Thanks for all the advice.
I finally found the problem. I took the old fuelpump apart and found 2 seals. One for the fuel on the upper part and one for the oil at the lower part. In between these 2 seals is an opening to prevent a vacuum. The oilseal was torn and oil was leaking out of the vent. So the gaskets were oke after ...

Since it all was either wrongly fixed or faulty I decide to start at the beginning. I took the fueltank from the car and inspected the remaining fuel and the "fuel intake" (don't know the english word). The fuel itself was green brown collored and had hardly any odor. Somebody explained that it is p...

engine runs on lpg only not on gasoline
My 340 DL won't run on gasoline anymore, just on LPG. The technicians in the shop say that they are not able to fix the problem. They've installed a new fuelpump, filter and replaced most of the fuelhoses in the engine compartment, but it just won't run on regular fuel.
