I have owned my 1993 sl500 for just over a year and during that time have suffered the misfire due to moisture problem that seems common to this engine.
Whilst recently cleaning the drivers side cap, I noticed that the wires that go into a two pin plug on the side of the distributor had pretty flaky insulation so I decided to sort this out. In fact there are three wires into two pins. To sort the insulation out I dismantled the plug casing and this is my problem. Stupidly, I didn't note which pin was the top and which was the bottom, although I think the two wire pin was the bottom.
Is there anyone who knows, or anyone with a similar car who could look at theirs and advise me? Is there any problem if I try both ways, is it just a case of the right way it will work, the wrong way it won't.
Grateful for any pointers.
Thanks
Chris
