W140 module for performance improvement.

[Jim]

I am told by a W140 expert that it seems to be a common uprating mod. in the USA if you want more power
to fit an EGAS ECU from a W140 part no 012 545 6232. Possibly the heavier W140 body needed extra fuel?

I doubt this given the knowledge here but...

012-545-62-32 is the LH (fuel injection) module with WOT enrichment... it was used on early production / Euro 500E's as well. Common upgrade, as noted in this thread:

Never heard of anyone swapping the E-GAS module from a W140, not sure if that would work at all, or if there would be any advantage.

Jim, by any chance were you talking to Carl at "140.co.uk" ? Just bought a LH module from him today for a friend and he mentioned that a 500e owner was looking for a ETA and asked if I had one or know who has .. Is it you who needs a ETA?

Bing,

Yes I found Carl via His Ebay shop. I was looking for an ETA and in the email exchange He mentioned the EGAS "upgrade"

Have you asked anyone here for an ETA? Like this, sadly, fire sale :

I've emailed Carl with ETA part#, early and late type, for 036s to see if they match up with any W140s same displacement .

W140's use different ETA's, with longer cables due to the larger engine compartment.
