    Newbie and thinking of a swap m104 to m119

    So my question and a big debate in my mind is how practical it is for a swap of M119 from a 1992 500 SL into a W124 E320 1994, If I would get positive vibes I'll have both cars complete and in running conditions, w124 being near to immaculate and r129 being not in so great condition. My major...

    400E Bad Misfire After Idling When Cold

    Hi Everyone, I believe I have a sort of "odd" issue among the M119 ignition system. I've done a lot of looking through the forum and cannot find anything that is similar to what I am experiencing for both the 400's and 500's... Since the colder weather in Maryland has started (and even since we...

    The cats have already been removed and replaced with straight pipes but my middle muffler needs to be replaced as well.

    RESTO PROJECT: M119 / W124 / E500 Engine Top-End Refresh

    What with the current "self quarantine" imposed, I thought it a good time to begin a very long-standing project -- the complete refresh and cleaning of the top end of my M119 engine. Note that my E500 has 143K miles on it. There was ZERO issue with running, other than the following small...

    Rebuilding m119.974 brackets

    Hello. I am rebuilding a m119.974 engine and don't know where a couple of brackets need to be placed. I bought the engine already striped and received a lot of pictures but can't see the place of some of the parts. Maybe someone will recognize a bracket.

    HOW-TO: Replacing M119 Distributor Insulator/Dust Cover

    In my ongoing quest to sort out the 400E I recently acquired, one of the issues I noted in my initial inspection was a severely worn/damaged distributor insulator on the right distributor. While this typically does not prevent the car from running, in the climate I live in (west central Florida)...

    HOW-TO: Replacing M119 Electronic Throttle Actuator (ETA)

    I replaced my ETA with a $200 used ETA from Ebay. Thanks to Dave who pointed out that the date tag, 02M11, meant that this was a unit that was made in November 2002, with the good insulation -- not the crap MB used to make the originals. The job was much easier than I anticipated. It took...
