I'm thinking about putting basic repair kits together - a kind of everything you need to do a certain job. I this case sub frame mount kit, motor mounts, front sway bar kit and trans mount for one price.
I'm also planning on having things like rebuilt criuse contol amps, idle speed contols, fuel distributors, steering boxes, power steering pumps, push button units, heating regulators, ICU's, ignition distributors and other things like that.
Maybe new parts like fuel pumps and hard parts shipped directly to you from my US based, OEM supplier.
Anyone think they might be interested or have requests or ideas? Any ideas would be helpfull.
Since my Cruise Control is not working I've been thinking about a replacement from General Development Lab. I'd certainly entertain proposals that would include a full package, including step-by-step directions.
That would be the heating servo in the engine bay? There's a smaller amp behind the glove box for that system.
I sell quite a few criuse control units. These are rebuilt with a refundable core charge as long as your core is good. The unit is on a bracket by the brake pedal - sometimes very difficult to remove.
I need the year and model of car and if it's a euro or not. Several different units available.
I know where the parts are located on the vehicle, was asking if you planned to put an amp/servo kit together. I've replaced the servo with a manual ctl for now. thanks
Dan, Very interested in a package for subframe ,and related mounts and bushings, keep me posted , Had'nt scheduled the repair/rebuild as yet , but my 380 SL is in need of a package like that !! ssadkins@aol.com Great idea, thanks " Qiksand "

Dan My 1985 380SL is starting to cut out at low speeds - by reading the posts here it sounds like the idle speed control valve. I'd be very interested in purchasing a new control valve and installation kit. Any idea of cost and degree of difficulty to install? (my mechanical expertise is low: 1 on a scale of 1 to 10) Thanks!
It may not be idle speed control problems. I'd look at fuel pressure and fuel filter first. The fuel injection can be set at idle so you might need to adjust it if it's too lean or rich. Also, does it run OK when cold but not when hot? Pull the plug off of the idle speed valve. It the engine speeds up a lot then it's working OK. If not, then it's probably dead or siezed up. Did you check the fuse on the over voltage relay? It's a red 10 amp blade type fuse. If it blows the car will do all sorts of strange things from running too fast ( not as fast as idle speed control problems ) to having no power and running rough at idle.
At any rate, I can get pretty much any part you need for a 107.
