It's an OM617. That's a pre-electronic turbo 5 cylinder. So it has as little Bosch electrical as possible. It does have the Bosch fuel injection but the word on the street is that they are OK. Back and forth on keeping the Bosch alternator but I suppose I'm stuck with the starter. I don't think they're too bad though. Still working out how to do the engine kill with the safety power switch - maybe I keep the stock vacuum shut off for now. The plug wires must be military as they're REALLY stiff and bolted to the plugs.
