Welcome Karl,

You will find a lot of great people and good information on this here.

For everybody's information, Karl is one of the leading authorities on the Grand Mercedes 600s (M100 engine, 8cyl mechanical injection). His depth of knowledge and experience is vast.   Karl is a master technician and probably cannot begin to list the vast number of MBs and special MB projects he has had in the past.

Karl, maybe you can expand a little on your experiences with an introduction by yourself ?

I wish you could have been at our recent gathering (PUB 11) to give a presentation on one this injection project. Hope you enjoy the W113 group !

Take care,

Welcome Karl

Don't forget El Benzo!  There are two different ones.

Also, he's a good friend of Paul Bracq!

I saw the Benzimino or El Benzo, 280 SL with the computerized fuel injection and the 600SL Silver Arrow at StarTech at Black Forest this year.  Karl was one of the featured speakers.
