Hi everyone

I've a Mercedes E220, European, Model 1993. There's a part that the mechanic said I need to change since the engine turns off if I don't keep pressing on the fuel paddle. Honestly, I always prefer to check with this Forum before listening to any mechanic since there're really professional people here.

I've attached pictures for this part.
I've in fact 3 questions:
1) Does this part cause the above symptom?
2) What is the name of this part?
3) Does anyone know an estimate for such part?
4) Does anyone know a website that sells this part?

I would appreciate any feedback

The chase number of my car is WBD123021B939455

that is the throttle actuator, i was going to look up some information for you, but it appears you have provided an incorrect chassis number, the E220 is not a 123 chassis, but rather a 124 or 210.

Dear Carson
You are right . It's 124 and not 123. This is what's written in my car registration
Maybe there's difference between US cars and European cars?

what number is stamped on the car? any pictures of the car?

Hi Carson
I've attached the 2 pictures for my car along with picture of the engine.
I hope this will give you better idea.

Note: Someone told me that I should not wash my car engine. So, is this true? And if there's a way to wash car engine, what is it?

Here is a pretty good resource on engine detailing:

As long as you don't spray water directly at the electronics you should be fine. The m111 (like the m104) doesn't have a distributor to worry about so that helps.
