Hi -
Sorry, this is my first post here and I'm not terribly familiar with this community. Having said that, I am an active member of the sl113 forums (Scoot) but what I have isn't really relevant there.

By chance I have come into a collection of parts that need homes. I suspect that they are worth something based in the initial pricing that I have looked at. I'm happy for someone else to get a good deal on these parts - they should be put to use. I acquired them along with what seems to have been items saved by a Mercedes mechanic in a public storage auction. (I also have a left and right door, and a hood for a 190 SL if anyone needs those).

Anyway, these parts seem to be specific more to the 1970s 116 and 117 engines, although other parts are also present.

Here's what I have:

1. Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor - Bosch 0280100100 -- seems to go to 1971 - 1980 450 V8 cars. It is used but this guy seems to have saved it for a reason. The other used parts he saved have worked fine for those who now have them.

2. Distributor cap - used, looks nice and not cracked. Number on cap is 1235522061

3a. Cold Start Valve - Bosch 0280170022. I think the MB part is 0000713437. I think this is also for 116 and 117 engines. It appears to be new, and is in the original box with a little German pink slip of paper indicating that it was Verpakt durch Controll nr. 6746.

3b. Cold Start Valve, as above except appears used and no box.

4. Rotor - Bosch 1234332117 / MB 00001582331. In original box, looks new or _barely_ used. I can't tell on this one.

5. 16" length of mystery hose - MB part number 040621022200 - new with parts stickers still on it.

6. Emissions System Purge Control Valve MB 0015407097 - probably for 1994 - 1996 C220, 1994 - 1198 C230, C280. New in a baggie.

If any of this interests you, email me and I'll send photos. I had 21 blue Bosch injectors that I think went to the earliest 4.5 V8's but those seemed to get snapped up on eBay. I didn't try eBay with this stuff.

thanks
Scott
