Hiya, ive recently bought an 87 260e and im totally stoked by it, however, the person i purchased it off said that it had a replacement engine put in 12 months ago, ok no big deal but he doesnt have the paperwork as the owner before him (an old widow) had the new lump installed and she had misplaced it. i wasnt too phased by this but yesterday i was looking round the engine bay for the ignition timing trimming socket, i located it no problem but the one on the car is stated in my haynes manual as being for 300 models so im a bit confused as to whether the replacement lump is a 3ltr or a 2.6 with a different trimming socket this might sound a bit bone to some of you but im not exactly blessed with a massive technical knowledge. please help!!
