The hose diameter is 1/8". The banjo end - 10mm? I see three options, probably going to go with #1:
1) Visit local hydraulic shop Tuesday over my lunch period and see if they'll make up a new hose while I wait. 2) Order from local dealer, wait one of two days for delivery to dealer and pick it up there. 3) Order aftermarket of unknown quality from FLAPS, wait one or two days for pick up in store. If any FLAPS is open today, I may order a hose just to get the car back on the road, and then get a better quality hose later from either dealer or the local hydraulic shop (most likely I'll go to the shop, that option just seems like more fun). ------------- Max Charleston SC On Sun, Sep 2, 2018 at 10:07 PM Larry Turner via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > Along with Oil Analysis Services, I also sell a few banjo fittings -- I > need the size to check & see what my supplier has.
