Hi, Sorry for the delay in responding. Been out and about. I have it listed on Ebay: Item No:272386408517 at £275. Plenty of picture so you should have an idea of what it is. I know nothing about diesels. If it does not sell I will break it down and dispose of the parts- Cylinderhead, power...

I bought a 1970 Mercedes 280 CE (Coupe) to obtain a few parts and this was in the engine compartment. I contacted the previous owner, who is a mechanical engineer, who rebuilt this unit but found it underpowered for the coupe and started a rebuild of a 2.8l He claims to have done less than 100...

Greetings Fellow Stroke Eights... I am busily reducing a W114 coupe down to the molecular level in order to have a stock of parts to keep my W114 250 CE on the road for a number of years. This "scrapper" came with a rebuilt , 2 litre diesel engine, bits from a 240D, Chrome and bits from...

Thanks Graeme, 123 ignition device is now on it's way from SC Parts. Cheaper than I thought at £399 inc VAT and Delivery. Have you any suggestions as to which would be the most appropriate, and best HT leads to fit? Mine are starting to age and will require replacement. Charles Morgan is...

Thanks Greame, I have supplied Charles with loads of parts for his epic rebuild but there is no way I can go down the route of Megasquirt as my ability, budget, competence and patience is no match for Charles's. the 123 system seems to be the short solution Many thanks

Greeting People who understand this sort of thing. I have a 1972 250CE/8, 6 cylinder 114 engined creature that is preforming admirably but...being a pessimist and horrified at being stuck on the hard shoulder of the A1, in the rain ( there is a tale to tell on another occasion), I would like to...
