Unlike some I have very good luck with the factory stuff. I did buy some HIGH-TEMPERATURE VITON RUBBER TUBING, FIRM, 1/8" ID, 1/4" OD, 1/16" WALL, BLACK, from McMaster-Carr which also worked very well. In fact I just used the last of it on my '84 190D. Its about the same price as Rusty is quoting for his stuff. If you require the factory cloth covered look go with Rusty's stuff for sure.

Rusty (Well, Tom, actually) didn't charge me $35 for the last meter I bought, but that was a few years ago. Some people have bought generic Viton hose in an inch size that's close to the proper metric size. The right stuff is metric and fabric covered. _______________________________________ 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://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
