Interesting, I did them on my 190D awhile ago (last fall maybe? it was cold out...) and they're just fine.
Well, they're not leaking enough that I'd notice anyway. Did the 240D before I got rid of it and AFAIK they're still fine too. A coworker owns that car now and while its had issues that isn't on of them. -Curt Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2007 20:23:13 -0500 From: "Wonko the Sane" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [MBZ] Bimby / injector bypass hoses To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <Mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Bought a length of injector bypass hoses from Rusty a while back -- maybe a year ago. Have replaced "factory" hose on both of my diesels (VW & Benz). EVERY LINE HAS LEAKED and has had to be replaced. I am getting at the most six months out of a section before it cracks and leaks. The frustrating part here is that neither car was leaking before the replacement -- I was doing preventative maintenance. Now, this isn't Rusty-bashing. It is more of a question. Rusty certainly doesn't manufacture the hose. The hoses are cracking at the nipple. Am I doing something wrong in the install? I just put the hose ends on and shut the hood. Is there a special "nipple grease" or something that I am not using? Maybe a bad run of hose at the factory? -- LT Don http://don.homelinux.net/~don/ Make a small loan, Make a big difference - Kiva.org --------------------------------- Fussy? Opinionated?
