Seems like the FI points themselves didn't fail on my '75 450SEL, but I do
remember replacing the wires that went to each set. Probably cleaned the

I'm not talking about the _fuel_ trigger points, but the single,

You won't mistake them.
The ignition points are a standard set in the top of the dizzy, cost

The FI trigger points are a quadruple set installed in the base on a
large fitting with six wires connected to them, and cost $400.
