Cold resistance The '85 OM617 is 25 ohm One of the '83 OM617 is 33 ohm The '81 OM616 is 66 ohm P=e^2/R so 576 W, 435 W, and 220 W. But that is cold, so as it heats up the resistance will go up and so the power will be less. I question if my measurement of the OM616 is correct.... _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
