Update on the thread: I got replacement hoses, thermostat, and radiator cap, as well as really good Mercedes coolant, it's all ready to put in, except for the fact that I cant quite get to the block drain plug to drain the rest of the coolant out... I think I will need to take out the AC compressor to make the job easier.

My radiator had quite a bit of CRAP logged in there. I sprayed a TON of degreaser, follwed by garden hose, an then power washer. The radiator is pretty much see through right now.
