WTB: Injection pump thermostat for 230SL

Need a functional thermostat for R-11 pump.  Also known as Warm Running Device (WRD)
Thanks,  Brian

Hi Brian--

You will see them frequently on EBay. They sell for around $46.

Look under W113 parts or 230 SL parts.

I haven't looked today, but there was one listed within the past week.

Well, yes there is a current listing for $850      http://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-230SL-250SL-300-600-FUEL-INJECTION-CHOKE-THERMOSTAT-WARM-UP-INJECTION-/130852718961?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e776e0971&vxp=mtr

I was hoping to find a working used one for less. 

surely that $850 cannot be right??

would you be able to use this instead?

Shaun:

I'm not sure if that's a fit.  Mine is in the shop at the moment...so I can't confirm till Monday.
What year/model did yours come from?  Later than 1966 won't work.

Thanks very much,
--Brian

The WRD for the 230 SL is/was quite expensive. A different beastie than on the later pumps.

No, it actually came out of a late 67.
