Hello forum
Simply put, I had a problem with the car (detailed below as it may relate to your problem) and I have found the cause but do not know what part is missing?
its the black port on the intake manifold - like a speedfit or pushfit connector? here is a library image.
After several days and nights of searching M113 engine, breather hoses, crank hoses, diagrams (I couldnt find any diagrams for the engine on google) I could not find an answer to what fits in this port? Can anyone help me? there are no apparent hoses hanging about and noticed the CLK500 has pipes going to it?
thank you
The story...
I have a 2003 SL 500 I believe the M113 engine which I used push start to fire up however let go of the foot brake too early causing premature crank/ false start. I then started properly only to find the engine tone was very loud and the car stalled and would not hold revs. I managed to keep revs going and car idling however it was not normal, very hesitant, chugging, erratic, stuttering etc.
Now, I could hear a strange suction noise from the engine bay so investigated and removed airbox system and maf - cleaned and refitted all to no result. I then found a hole (something missing) and once popped my finger in to block this hole the engine returned to normal running.. so as per 1 short 3 reply thread I had found during my searches it seems the false start had forced some sort of plug or bung out of place...
