WTB: EGR Pipe between Chain Tensioner and Air cleaner - Benzworld.org - Mercedes-Benz Discussion Forum

logmein · 10-22-2009, 08:43 PM

I have a 1980 450SLC. I'm looking for the pipe/aspirator valve assembly that connects between the chain tensioner and air cleaner. It's part of the air injection system. I believe all 450 V8, 116 and 107 chasis from 77-80 would have it.

This is what I'm looking for:

Attachment 267730

Anyone have one in good condition they'd like to sell? It's an easily removed part attached by a hose on the valve end, and a large nut on the chain tensioner side.

E-mail me at talamini@optonline.net, please include price and shipping to zip 08807, NJ.

Thanks,
John T.

The correct forum for your car is the R107 (part also in W116?).

If I was requesting/offering technical advice I would agree. But since I was posting a WTB part ad, I thought the classified section was more appropriate.

Why are you replacing the whole thing, instead of just the exhaust check valve?

^What he said. Do you have a PN for the valve?

The valve is expensive as hell - like $400. That's why I replaced mine with a check valve labeled for a Ford for $20.

I thought the valve you replaced was from the AIR pump.
