This is W123 240D and the hose from the screen is leaking. Is that a dealer part or can I cut the fitting and hose clamp new hose?
The muffler rusted out just upstream from the first resonator. Noise is gone now, as I put one of my rust bucket 240D on there. My son did the work as he has access to the shop & lift, and said that OEM exhaust parts always last much longer than aftermarket parts. The parts off my rustbucket are OEM, so we should be good for a while... after I get that leaky hose fixed. Gotta get the fuel out of the tank - driving it, then fix it. Son also did the alternator bracket - the alternator lower mount was all out of round and long bolt there was almost worn thru - amazing the thing ran. Rustbucket bosch alternator is in there now, so again should be good for a while... after I get the leaky hose done. What about this beast? - I like it since it has a clutch. http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/1349826118.html mao _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
