Hi, I detected a leak at the connection from the Transmission (out-Driver side) to the Thermostat which has a sliding Dust Cap covering a W-Clip or Safety Clip to secure the Transmission line into the Thermostat. The leak is from this junction. In reading the document I downloaded from Merc, it states that the Clip should be replaced. My question is, what is the part number and I can't seem to find a W-Clip or a Transmission Safety Clip or Securing Clip anywhere.
In the PDF, it is item 2a.
