[W126 Coupe] Stalling issue

[Axel Wulff]

Ray,

 

Take a look at your parts and pull the MB part number, then cross check with the used parts. I'm assuming you know where the components are located.

 

The '87 and '88 models are of the correct series, but your car being post the '89 freshening up, I'm not sure the parts would be interchangeable. On the '91 MB changed a lot of parts, almost enough to merit a separate repair manual, so I would be even more careful with parts from a '91 for interchangeability.

Regards,
