I got one from a forum member and had one shipped over from Germany from a salvage yard

I am looking for one of these. Willing to pay $60 to $100 maybe more just depends on the condition (not really sure what they go for). I need it for my 87 300SDL W126 OM603. PM me if you have or find one.

I am also close to the Modesto,CA Pick N Pull and a few other sweet junk yards if anyone needs anything. I don't mind making a day trip to help a fellow Benz owner.

(11-01-2013, 02:18 PM)larsalan I'm looking for just the lift pump off of a 617mw IP.
Most I would really want to pay is $30-35 shipped.

3x - 10mm nuts hold it to the IP and then a couple other banjo bolts need removed from the fuel filter housing.

I'm going to a yard that may have the lift pump. I'll let you know if I am able to find one.

That one is a euro only manifold very rare but the w140 300sdl 1992-1993 also rare before they got the om606 have a similar manifold with EGR on the round spot on the 3rd runner above the turbo flange. they can be found on car-part.com for around $100 last i checked Big Grin

...you are aware that cutting a tab off of the W123 pedalset makes it totally compatible with the W126, right? I understand if you are shooting for one with a 126 part #, but in case you aren't, it's very easy to modify the W123 set... at least so I have read.

If you want to buy a W126 pedalset, I can put you in touch with a guy who may still have one.

Willing to pay $200 for w126 standard transmission pedal cluster plus the ride...

(08-01-2011, 06:47 AM)Greazzer Not sure what is ultimately cheaper or not, but you are still left with an exhaust manifold that is in the same exact boat as you started, so not sure what can be accomplished with a custom exhaust manifold. I would like to see one that is in actual use on a W123. Maybe the final costs of Jet Hot will be cheaper as the size of the manifold is generally smaller than US makes' V-8's, I'll see. However, assuming all the vendor's claims are accurate, the ceramic coating supposedly removes and dissiaptes a lot of heat, et cet, which no custom or non-custom header can do unless the material is modified.

I am a real fan of electrolysis -- just put the part in a non-metal container and turn it on. Once the rust / bubbles pretty much stop, the rust is gone and all you need to do is rinse it off. Sure beats sanding or sand blasting, et cet.
Actually the coating KEEPS the heat hot so that it travels faster and does not transfer the heat to the manifold IIRC. I have a non egr manifold on my wagon and it's coated.

how far of would a w123 pedal cluster be? have you tried?

(depending on what year of a w126 you have you might have to mod the fastening for the brakebooster thou.


RE: the junkyard exchange - NapaBavarian - 10-26-2014

The clutch pedal would be far too short, perhaps two inches.
