This is the most common m112 page linked around:

http://www.whnet.com/4x4/new_V6.html

Anyone know why they changed airboxes (from single filter on the passenger side to two filters w/ the box ontop of the engine) ?

Frank, nice stuff.

Anyone know what the 320 engine is from 97? A neighbor has a 97 S320 that won't start, so I am looking for basic tuneup info to get him going.

Straight six. Just have to coordinate. My plan is to investigate the engine, change plugs, determine if a coil pack is bad, and clean the MAF.

What is the no start symptom? Is it a no crank, or nothing at all when the key is turned? I've worked on a few at the shop, PM me and I can give you some pointers.

Awesome vids by the way. I've tried so many times to figure out what the mani looks like as its working and even after taking 15 or so apart, this vid explains a lot more.

Thanks!
