MERCEDES-BENZ SL ENGINE AT AUTOSCOPE IN DALLAS TEXAS

Mercedes-Benz Master Technician Dan Gould works on a  Mercedes-Benz SL engine at Autoscope in Park Cities-Dallas. After completely removing the engine from the Mercedes-Benz Roadster, Dan will remove and replace damaged head gaskets. A common engine problem with the early SL models is the engine sealant called Hylomar. Although it worked great when it was new, the Hylomar wears down and cracks over years of expanding and contracting under heat and pressure.  Dan works to remove the timing cover to make a more thorough inspection of the engine. He will reseal it with a new Mercedes-Benz sealant that is resistant to the heat and pressure caused by the engine. This sealant will last much longer than the Hylomar extending the lifetime of the Mercedes-Benz SL engine.
