Title: 051 Distributor
Post by: DavidAPease on February 01, 2022, 00:13:34

I am in the market for a correct distributor for my '66 230SL, Bosch part number 0 231 116 051 (that is, the 051 distributor).  (I believe that this corresponds to Mercedes part number 000 158 96 01.)

Obviously, I'd like to find one in good (or at least rebuildable condition), and a freshly rebuilt one (if such a thing exists) would be great.

       Thanks,
 
           -David

David,
 I have one. I rebuild it to the best I could. No feel-able play of the shaft and the mechanism advances well I if you pull a vacuum. Ideally, you have it evaluated on a proper test stand.
Was in my 108 and ran quiet well.
But to be honest, the 123 runs better.
PM me if interested.
