Sprinter OM612 2.7L - specs??
« on: March 09, 2010, 03:44:59 pm »
Anyone have any pictures or length/weight specs for the Mercedes OM612 2.7L 5 cylinder engine used in the Sprinter??

Is it a big heavy truck engine like a Cummins 6BT or is it smaller like a VW TDI car engine??

Is it electronic control???

What transmission is used in the Sprinter??  Pictures of the flywheel end of the engine?

Is the OM611 four cylinder 2.1L just 4/5 of the OM612 or is totally different design??? 

Thanks for your help.

i know they are not the size of a cummins. they are more the size of a 5 or 6 cylinder VW engine from what ive seen. they are only 2.7 litres, there isnt much to them. they arent going to weigh 1100 pounds.
