I just bought them from the ******** in az. Not sure who makes them. These are a bit different from the diesel ones and cannot be rebuilt as far as I can tell. They probably do last a long time, but...

Installed the new injectors last night and there is quite an increase in smoothness, and there seems to be an increase in power (it's hard to know for sure, but it feels that way).

Hey Mike, if you read my first reply in the thread you'll see what I found. It was totally unrelated to the injector (window button was mashed down by not putting console paneling in correctly, so it...

For those that might be wondering about my pop tester, it is a hydraulic jack that is fitted with a fluid reservoir (typically diesel) that can pressure up an injector to see its spray pattern and to...

Figured it out!! Injector number 5 was completely plugged!!

From one of my last posts above, you can see I isolated it to cyl #5 by pulling the plug wires on each cylinder. I knew it must be...

All plugs are brand new. The ones I pulled showed no difference for plug 5, but the condition just started happening, so wouldn't expect to see much of a difference.

I did already add injector cleaner and have driven it about 20 miles, but no difference yet.

However, a bit of a breakthrough on the diagnosis. Although I had already done this, I was probably in...

Ferdman, I pulled the coil out yesterday and all connections are tight, and wires look good. On the OVP relay, keep in mind that I just replaced it with a brand new one.

Problem started before changing plugs, and that is why I changed them even though they had only been in about 10K miles. Order of plug wires is fine and have checked it several times.

I was hoping that the resistance checks on the coil would show a problem, but they look good (8.8K on the secondary, and 0.5 on the primary). I read somewhere that a coil might be bad even if the...

Yes Fred, the car runs exactly like my friend's 97 S320 when he had a failing coil pack. However, his coil configuration was quite different (one coil pack for every 2 cylinders), so for some reason...

I don't think this is it for a couple of reasons. One is that mine was replaced about one year and 10K miles ago, as noted above. Second, I think a bad O2 sensor would not cause the type of miss that...

Car has only 100K on it, a very low mileage 300E. I put in Autolite 104's, which is a non-resistor plug that many other W124 owners are having good success with. (I realize the spec plug is a Bosch...
