Help with component ID

Can anyone help with component identification with the attached engine pic. 1985 MB 500 SL euro. I am having a problem with high-idle and need to troubleshoot it. The haynes manual is beyond useless..

Number 4 is the idle control valve. Number 6 is the cruise control actuator. Number 1 is the control pressure regulator. The sensors I always verify in the etm.

That leaves 2,3 and 5.
I think 2 & 3 are temp sensors. Is 5 the enrichment solenoid?
And where is the crossover solenoid?

I have never heard or either an enrichment solenoid or crossover solenoid. At least not by those terms. There is a cold start valve/solenoid which plays no part in a running motor. The picture of item 5 is partially covered by the number and isn't clear enough for me to state.

This would be another view of item 5. Which could be the cold start valve you refer to.

Also check the Idle Control Unit. Tap it with a screw driver handle while running if it shuts down or fluctuates when tapped(rapped smartly) then it's the ICU.
