My mech has a Matco version and one of the other mechs in the shop has the HF version. Both do a great job on MB's and Bemmers they work on. He did my E320 2 years ago. These work like a charm cuts down on time spent doing the job. Also he suggest to mix the coolant and the distilled water

Well the bottom hose is not supposed to get hot, the radiator is supposed to cool off the coolant, so maybe it will be warmish. Really hot or stays cold would be problems. Used radiator from a car that had the head off, hmmm, maybe a bad radiator blew the headgasket or cracked the head on that

Re: [MBZ] I think I managed to blow the head gasket on my e300

I need to check the bottom hose and see if it is hot after it gets warmed up.  Maybe nothing is flowing thru it although I did get water flowing out of the top neck with the hose disconnected when filling in the reservoir. On 6/7/2020 4:09 PM, Max Dillon via Mercedes wrote: No, flow is out

Re: [MBZ] I think I managed to blow the head gasket on my e300

No, flow is out from the top hose (from the head) into the top of the radiator, then out from bottom of radiator into the thermostat and then water pump. Jun 7, 2020 4:43:16 PM Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes : > No, I did not turn on the heat before I started filling. The thermostat was >

No, I did not turn on the heat before I started filling. The thermostat was replaced a few months ago. Upper hose gets hot, have not checked lower hose. I assume it flowed from the bottom up in the radiator? Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 7, 2020, at 2:24 PM, archer75--- via Mercedes > wrote:

Might be the clutch and/or this radiator. I took the radiator that was in the back seat of that 80k mile e300 I picked up from copart that had the head removed. I may need to pull it back out and just swap in a new one and clutch. Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 7, 2020, at 1:39 PM, Max Dillon

Bad fan clutch for starters. If you had a cracked head or blown head gasket you would probably have oil in the reservoir by now. Easy to test the visco clutch -- when it's hot, have someone shut the engine off while you watch the fan. If it doesn't stop within a rotation or two, it's out of

No. In fact this morning it was under a slight vacuum as in the upper hose was somewhat squeezed in. Not completely flat. When I pulled the cap it expanded. Within about 20-30 minutes of shitting the car off just now hose is pliable again. It could have a fan clutch problem as well. Even at
