What’s the deal with the bellows adhesive? The manual says to use it, so I used it. But two of the three area service dealers don’t carry it and said they never use it. The third carried it, said the DIY crowd uses it, but they did'nt use it themselves. Is it an added safety thing like suspenders with a belt, or what.

a.d,<br /> According to the Merc manual, the stuff is a 3M product. Last I heard they were still in biz….unless they discontinued that product.
