Thanks Benz for encouraging me. I am posting another pix, asking knowledgeable people like you to identify other engine components. All inputs are greatly appreciated, I think not only by me, but it would be a big help for other "dummies" as well.




1. Valve cover
2. Thermo vacuum valve
3. Oil dip stick
4.
5. Fuel injector (first, 1 of 7)
6. That's the line from the coil to the distributor (some people call it a rotor). The distributor sits in front of the engine, under the plastic cover that is oh so close to the radiator fan!
7. the thermostat housing (Benz-LGB).
8. Belt tensioner bolt
9. brake vacuum hose (to assist with the power brakes, no vacuum no power brakes - BENZ-LGB).
10. Timing cover
11. Coolant hose
11a. also coolant hose?
12. power steering pump
13. ABS module
14. ABS lines
15. a/c pressure switch
16. a/c reciever/dryer
17. ballast resistor
18. high pressure a/c line
19. Ignition module
20. low pressure a/c line
21. looks like the cover for your coil

Info by Nels

Tex, 8 is the belt tensioner bolt, 12 is the power steering pump, 15 is the a/c pressure switch, 16 is the a/c reciever/dryer, 17 is a ballast resistor, 18 is the high pressure a/c line, 20 is the low pressure a/c line, and 21 looks like the cover for your coil
