You say its in a W126, is it possible that the vehicle ever has an engine swap? The information deanyl provided is compelling.

Do you have any pictures of the engine/car? Engine pics would make ID extremely easy for all of us.

Either way, the M117 is better then the M116, in my opinion, Im a little partial though, double time chain.

Ill do you on better,

Does it look like this. . .


Or like this. . .



Both of these engines are M117's. The first engine is mine, in my '78 450 SL-C. The second engine is from a '89 560 SEC (W126).
