:confused:When I last posted I asked what the correct resistance across the ICV pins was, as the forum had given two posts with readings of 5 and 4.8 ohms. I was getting 7.8 ohms.
I did not get any replies, so I sent off for another ICV. Lo and behold the reading across the pins was 7.9 ohms -...
Hi, I'm hoping someone might know something about my cruise control problem.
The cruise used to work but then stopped. I have tried putting in a known good amplifier/ECU under the dash at the drivers side but still nothing. I've got a replacement servo but I don't think this is the problem. I...
:dk:I have soaked the Idle Control Valve in carbureter fluid and replaced a damaged vacuum bend. I put the ICV back in the car and now the car no longer stalls at traffic lights or junctions. However, the idle is still low (the rpm drops to 5000 when I go in to drive or reverse). I have checked...
Just lately my 1988 300SE has started to stall at traffic lights or roundabouts. It will start again immediately when I put it in to drive.
When it is in drive it idles at about 6500, but drops when I put it in to drive. I manage to drive it by accelerating slightly with my other foot on the...

I've ordered a second hand throttle body inc fuel distributor for my W126 300SE. Is it going to be a fairly easy DIY job to fit or should I really be getting a garage to do it? Is there any fine adjusting that will need done?
Hi
I’m experiencing a slight misfire in my 1988 W126 300SE. It seems to be when the engine is warm, i.e. after around 10 mins of driving. When I accelerate there is a hesitation / misfire type of thing happening! Very frustrating!
Any thoughts what this might be?
Just FYI, I have a new...
As above....
These are the ally cast arms from the cyl. block to the rubber mountings on the chassis.
They need to be from the Inline engine and from the W126 series car

Hi Guys,
I would much appreciate it if someone can identify two connections that I seem to have forgotten during my job replacing the engine in my 300SE. One is a vacuum tube from the top of the engine
I can't remember where this goes and I didn't label it.
The other is a cable shown here...
Interesting?
