Quiz & question - breather hose at throttle body 230SL
« on: April 11, 2017, 20:22:10 »
The quiz: Does anybody know what this is and where it is fitted?
The question: Where can a new one be sourced?

Is this the hose in question? It does not appear exactly the same, but close. The dimensions on this one about 12 cm long and about 4 cm at the angle.

If so, here is one source:

And another from SLS:

I shall defer. When I went to my car (1970 - 280 SL) it has a different type of intake and the hose shown by Tyler is no longer used. So I scanned through the engine bay, and the breather was the only thing that was close.

Correct! Mine has a crack and needs to be replaced. Thanks for the advise on Buds.

Check this page from SLS:
http://www.sls-hh-shop.de/main/en/mercedes-230-280sl-w113-/07-mech-injection-air-intake-/09-air-intake-and-aircleaner

It is #36 on that page and I actually ordered that from SLS once but I received a shorter one that didn't fit.
