In my search for injector nozzles, M source has been out since Nov., and the ship date has been pushed back a couple of times, now to April. The ones on Ebay, from Germany, had a delivery date of the end of March.


I found only two listings on Ebay for Bosio nozzles, and neither were for my engine. I did find one outfit that had Bosio nozzles, and I got the last of their stock. Hope this all is not a sign of things to come. The Bosio nozzles I got are sd265. Apparently they work, but sd261 are supposed to be better. The Monark nozzles MS has had are supposedly sd261.


The outfit also had sd314 nozzles (out of stock) listed as fitting the OM617 engine, but developing more power. Any one have any experience with these?


I beat the bushes pretty hard before I ordered the Bosio nozzles, and all I could find was Bosch. Even went to the point of calling local mechanic and euro supply places locally, still Bosch. I called the local Mercedes dealer, who could get nozzles, but they were $76 each. Didn't think to ask where they were made.


I ordered what I needed, but am interested if anyone else has other sources.


Regards,
