Thanks... well my car is actually a 6-cylinder (300SEL). Now I wonder if the V8 / I6 relay is compatible?
The reason I think I may need one is that my car has very recently and suddenly started to stall out when I come to a stop. It always starts back up and goes fine and runs smooth. I am also getting 21 mpg in town.
On other threads however I have also been told it could be a vacuum hose or a bad fuel pump. I am going to try to take it to a Mercedes indy shop next week to have it checked out.
Parts page is finally up and I think this is the new one...

Thanks again.

Early 80s 126 V8s (thru MY '87) have OVPs that should work; not sure that W116 even had an OVP. S-class experts will know for sure and can correct me on that. Why do you think that you need an OVP?
