Can anyone please give me a part number or any information for the fuel injectors for a 1992 300SE ? I cannot find the Bosch part number. Someone told me that Bosch does not make injectors for that vehicle. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My vehicle has 250k+ . I think they need replacement. The vehicle has hardly any power going up hills and stalls occasionally when at very low speed parking maneuvers. You think it's a waste of money at that mileage?

I have done complete tune up, replaced fuel filters, air filters, all of which gave me a little less sluggishness, but still I want some more power.

Your call, depends on your long term plans for the car. You're going to spend $650 instead of $120 but won't be down for a week. The great majority of them test out fine once they've been cleaned and refurbished. They give you a copy of the test results and tell you which if any can't be brought back to spec. How's your compression?

Indeed, I would have yours sent out of testing and cleaning before I bit the bullet and bought new..

these cars are Not rocket ships off the line...

Sounds like too lean mixture. This will not be caused by injectors but more likely the air mass sensor and/or the oxygene sensor.

Get a diagnostic readout, that would tell and save you some money, although an air mass sensor is not cheap. If the problem is air mass sensor, you may be lucky since it may simply be cleaned (read some threads about it).

Don't keep running in that condition, or the catalytic converters may break down and spread out in the exhaust system.... and a new set of exhaust system, catalytic converters and air mass sensor really is an costly affair (I can tell, because I tried exactly that with exactly your symptoms).

So go carefully.
