79 300D eaten away vacuum lines

Submitted by zeggroll on 14 May 2008 - 11:21am.
What size vacuum lines are the lines coming through the firewall behind the battery? What size line do I need? They are all broken and brittle from the battery leaking. What else might I need to make these repairs? Gary

We sell the correct size vacuum line in a 3 meter roll. CLICK HERE to order. You may also need some short pieces of rubber hose to make the splices. Email sales@mercedessource and we can give you a quote on a meter of the correct size rubber. I just had to repair this same problem on a 1980 300TD. Not real fun...
