I recently did my m112 the problem I'm getting now is its cranking but no start I re checked my timming 4 times it's correct but crank no start wht could be wrong
168k on my m113k e55 , I hope she Lasts a long time more . I know she will because I take care of her , one day before she’s too tired I will wake her up again & give everything a good refresh . However my m113 ML500 that also has 168k needs cylinder head gaskets because my girlfriend drove without overflow cap on & overheated it Sick songs ! Perfect for zoning out & rebuilding an engine ! Edit : while rebuilding the m113 engine for the ML500 I found it was the timing cover O-rings that caused water to mix with oil . Still had the cylinder heads resurfaced & I’m filming the rebuild for my channel now
Thanks! I have had a new project in the garage for almost a year now, but the first video of this is still in the making. I have had so much other things to do in the summer so I haven't had time for any fun! But will definitely continue doing these because it's a blast!
When you purged the fuel rail, you used a 9 volt battery to open the injector coil. How did you run the fuel pump? Did you supply voltage at the pump fuse ?
Hi I am doing the same and have the same issue as you with no rod bearings and still no bearing available. So is the engine still going good ? Way am asking is that I thinking of getting the bearing fore the 55 with out the Kompressor as you did on one rod I will have to do it on all 8 it’s ther fore I am asking if that one you mount still going 😀 Thanks Mats Sweden
Hej Mats! Engine is excellent, no problems whatsoever. You can definitely use the M113 NA bearings. But VRP Speed has now come up with bearings especially for the M113k engine: www.vrpspeed.com/product/vrpp-race-con-rod-bearings/ I would have probably bought these if they would've been available when I had my engine open. Hälsningar från Finland 👋
Hi 👋 and Thanks fore the post I have a standing order at VRP since middle of June and yesterday it still pending of delivery so now I can’t wait any longer So ether I re fit my old bearing and put lower part of bearing shell on top and top on lover side or by the one with the hole in Tanks again fore your answer Mats
Is a 2005 CLS55 AMG really that reliable compared to the less powerful 2008 CLS550? I mean it has driven 3 years longer, and probably abused way more over the years. I really like to know what you would say, to me it just doesn't make sense that a the 3 year older, more powerful version, also comes with cheaper maintenance and better reliability.
Well, a good question. Now, I don't have experience of the M273, but I am just about to rebuild a M272, which is of the same engine family. Really, I don't think there is much difference in reliability to one ore another. They are very similar engines in many aspects. Biggest difference being 3 vs 4 valve heads, but that doesn't affect reliability. Both blocks share same alusil-coated cylinders etc. 2-row timing chains. Structure is quite similar anyhow. So I can't say what is more or less reliable, both are reliable but there can be problems with any engine. I'd say that maintenance and inspecting the engine health is the key.
On kyllä, ei näissä sinänsä mitään ihmeitä. Tietty kannattaa huomioida että koneessa on sen melkein 500hp niin kyllä näitä kannattaa huoltaa jotta pysyy hyvänä.
@ Internal Combustion Can you share the manufacturer and part No. of the piston rings, please 😇 Did you gap the rings individually, or were they gapped like oem? Best regards
Sure, the rings are pre-gapped. the brand is NPR / NE and part number is 120 010 0066 00. Anyone that sells NE / NPR products should be able to get these on order
@ Internal Combustion Thx! Where did you order the piston rings? I can only find a single website and one eBay seller from india?! Do you remember the bolt size for the connecting rods? Trying to get ARP rod bolts without paying a premium to VRP or Weistec 😇
Regarding the piston rings, I suggest you ask NPR for a retailer in your area www.npr-europe.com I used a Finnish retailer called Janicol racing: www.janicolracing.fi There seems to be quite a bit of retailers worldwide, for example www.enginepartsuk.net/npr-ne-europe-piston-rings I havent used them though.
I was doing an engine overhaul to replace gaskets. There was a small casting defect in the engine block that had collected sand between the upper oil pan and block. When I removed the oilpan with engine upside down, all debris fell into the engine. Didn’t want to take any chances so I disassembled the engine completely.
🙏🙏🙏 Please come rebuild my 55? I would rebuild it myself but a jurastic event alter my life. Growing up I've always wanted a MB Amg. I got to purchased not only my first MB, but Amg ('06 cls55 amg), I was 26yrs old, so my 55 is very sentimental to me, thus why my 55 been garaged for 10ys. I'm 47 now. Since then I've been searching and unsuccessful in finding/trusting anyone, especially around my area to rebuild my 55. I'm hoping you wouldn't mind taking on my sentimental value project?
I had thought of replacing my motor, but when as I'm searching for one many of the M113K had 100k plus miles. My M113K is under 80k miles (67k miles). This is one reason why I don't wish to replace it, and second... when I mentioned rebuild I meant I'm looking to replacing/upgrading the piston heads, piston rods, rod bearings, coolant, camshaft, pulleys, injectors, etc... all eternal/external components with aftermarket racing components., custom forged heads, rods, camshaft, etc... I'm wanting to give my CLS 800 HP at tge low end, and at the high end, 1000 HP. Coming across your video convinced me that I much reach out to you, Hoping (🙏 🙏 🙏) you would like to make this happen for me. Turning my CLS 55 coupé into the very first Supercar Coupé or is it the first Sedan 😁🤷♂️.
I don't know how people can reassemble parts that are filthy. My OCD would ruin me putting greasy oxidized parts back onto a refreshed engine. Fun video otherwise.
I use to own a W211 E55 , and all i can say is it was simply a beast of an car , still to this day, only letdown was the gearbox letting it down
Amazing. I salute you!
Nice build .👍🏽🤤doing mine now and its a grate project.
I wanna buy a car from this guy, LOL!
Good shittttt! #KompressorGangGangGANG
I recently did my m112 the problem I'm getting now is its cranking but no start I re checked my timming 4 times it's correct but crank no start wht could be wrong
GREAT VIDEO, I AM CURIOUS....WHY DID YOU NOT CHECK THE PISTON RING GAPS?
I did but off camera unfortunately!
Nice build man. Why did you not bore the cylinders and fit new pistons ?
Cylinders and pistons where all good - no need to do that!

My s211 e55 has 221k km, still pulling like a freight train.
When you purged the fuel rail, you used a 9 volt battery to open the injector coil. How did you run the fuel pump? Did you supply voltage at the pump fuse ?
I only primed the system with putting the ignition on. there is more than enough pressure to test the rail. no need to hack wiring!

Good morning Fran NYS Goop
How much did u bolt the head bolts to ?

What do you use for the manual to put the engine back together
I had the mb manuals available for use
@@internalcombustion1416 was it the Emanuel’s ?

@@maximzagorodniy772 Sorry I have no link available

onko nää m113 koneet vielä toimivia melkeen 20 vuoden jälkeen?
On kyllä, ei näissä sinänsä mitään ihmeitä. Tietty kannattaa huomioida että koneessa on sen melkein 500hp niin kyllä näitä kannattaa huoltaa jotta pysyy hyvänä.

Do you remember the bolt size for the connecting rods?
Trying to get ARP rod bolts without paying a premium to VRP or Weistec 😇
Regarding the rod bolts - WIS finally works and I found the document with the dimensions 👍🏻
I used MB original rod bolts. If you get the ARP rod bolt # I am interested as well If i am going to rebuild another engine :D
Regarding the piston rings, I suggest you ask NPR for a retailer in your area www.npr-europe.com

Why did you need to rebuild it if the M113 is bullet proof ?! 😊

When I removed the oilpan with engine upside down, all debris fell into the engine. Didn’t want to take any chances so I disassembled the engine completely.

Thanks for the trust! Maybe a used engine could be a better solution in your case? You could also spare your current engine for the future.
