Need help with getting a hose part number
« on: February 06, 2013, 15:44:21 »
There is a hose on my 280 that comes off of the lower radiator hose that I need help getting a part number. I appreciate any help on this one, thanks. I have attached a pic.

No, it is the one that comes off of the lower radiator hose. I had checked with Autohaus before and they do not stock it. David Gallon, who I can't contact any more, told me that Mercedes only did this hose for part of the 1970 production. It is a formed hose, but if they no longer make it, I guess I will have to replace it with straight. Thanks....

Check with the Classic Center.  If they don't have it most likely no one else will.

for a 280sl maybe you can identify the hose on this page?
http://www.sls-hh-shop.de/en/230-280SL-W113/50-Cooling-System/50-c-Cooling-System-280SL/

if they (SLS) do not have it in stock, they provide the MB reference for further searches

The hose that I need actually goes to a pipe that goes up to the top injector side of the block next to the firewall. Where the pipe starts to bend to go into the block, there is a sensor. The formed hose that I need coming off of the lower radiator hose is about one foot long.
I should replace this hose the same time I cut and replace the lower radiator hose.
Thanks everyone....
