Short Bypass Coolant Hose
Title
Mercedes W123 Diesel Short Bypass Coolant Hose Replacement
Introduction
How could 2" of anything cause much trouble on a car?
Well, if you're talking about the short coolant hose that connects the thermostat housing to the water pump, it definitely can!
In fact, it's often one of the first things to leak on your cooling system. Maybe it's because it's so short there isn't much room for failure. Whatever the case, if it's leaking it's time to replace it. It's pretty critical, after all. It carries all of the coolant that flows through the engine when the thermostat is closed during the warm up process.
As always when dealing with automotive fluids you should wear the proper protective gear, such as gloves and glasses. Also be sure to catch the fluid properly and dispose of it safely and in an environmentally sound way!
