It has been over 30 years since the last Mercedes with Bosch C.I.S. fuel injection was manufactured. If you own a 1976 to 1993 Mercedes gas engine with this type of fuel injection, you may have difficulty finding someone to work on your car. In some parts of the country, it may be impossible.

This critical coolant hose hardly ever gets changed, and when it ruptures, you could experience a catastrophic engine failure. The chief reason is that it is almost impossible to see and inspect.
Even many old-time Mercedes diesel "experts" are surprised about this part. It is so unknown that it never gets replaced in the oil filter housing, meaning that almost all of them are no longer working today. Watch the video below, and Kent will explain its location and function.
in this detailed 38-minute video Kent will walk you step-by-step through the procedures of removing the old belts, installing the new belts, and tightening them properly. When changing your V-belts there are other things you should consider replacing as well.
