For more recent 6 cylinder engines please order a 'normal' 123/MERCEDES-6-R-V.

For 6 cylinder electronic driven fuel injected engines (when the engine needs a trigger pulse form the ignition), please order the 123/MERCEDES-6-R-V-IE.

Please read the installation manual carefully. It contains more information about the specifications of the 123ignition and a step-by-step description of the installation procedure.

Coil and spark plugs

Although used coils all look alike, they should be viewed with suspicion since one cannot tell from the outside whether, and how often they were exposed to overheating in the past. Installing the 123ignition system will ensure that the coil will never be overheated again in future. We recommend the 123 Red Coil.

Perhaps you will also need new spark plugs? At 123ignitionshop we recently added the spark plugs most commonly used in combination with the 123ignitions we offer. See: the spark plugs list.
