Will It Fit??

Coil wire from a 560sel going to a 91 300te? A gracious MS user has offered one to me and I want to make sure it will fit my car. Thanks for your help!

If it is long enough and the terminations are similar enough then it should work. You could ask the person with the other wire to measure it. I believe some auto parts places can make up wires, if they have the right terminations "ends" for what you need.

Hello. The cable has one Male end and one Female end. They are large ends, and the cable is almost 3 feet long. I'll check my books and see if I can find out if they interchange. I'll let you know.
Thanks, and God Bless,
Dave.

Without seeing them in front of me, I'd say no, but I'm not 100% positive.

I needed a plug wire in a pinch for an older V8 and had a old set from a 300E, but it wouldnt work. however the 560 wires are different then what I needed, so give it a shot.

Thanks everyone. Dave let me know. Mine is still attached so I don't know how long it is or what the other end looks like. The one on top is of course male.
