Have a 99 270DA, previous owner said hot water system is "bypassed" due to bottom of tank being rusted out. I'm assuming electrical is bypassed because water is leaking steadily from the hose with the arrow pointed at it only while motor is running. I was advised to disconnect 2 hoses from tank and connect them together with a hose barb taking the tank out of the loop ( not using it anyways) then drain remainder of the tank. This a good idea, safe idea? Tank is junk and no need to replace it at the moment. Advice is appreciated! Have tried to tighten hose clamp and still leaks.
