I think I have a moderate chance of success. I’ll drain the cooling system a little so I don’t have to worry about coolant leaking out while I do the job, and I’ll be using a 3M silicone hose product, so no cheap materials in play.
I’ll check to see if the MB hose is NLA or not as a last resort. Too bad the same hose isn’t used on the 300SEL, as I would just rob it off of that car and put the patched one on the 300SEL. -D > On Mar 22, 2017, at 7:52 PM, Craig via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > On Wed, 22 Mar 2017 19:44:51 -0400 Dan Penoff via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > >> I’m picking up some silicone sealing tape tomorrow.
