[T3] Hothe is back on all 4

actually they are  bosch 019's

2 of the leaky ones from 10 years ago I put in Kerosene as per Jim Adney's
suggestions, one of them now is good, the other still weeps a little.

One of the current leakers is still a gusher after a week with fresh gas in
it, the other is a slight weeper.  The "Good" spare I had in Kerosene is now
a leaker, but to be honest It might have been when I got it too, I doubt I
tested that one.

I sent a message to Tram, hopefully he can dig me up a couple

 So .....
What are the "good part numbers" for the fuel  injectors?
Are they different for 1500 or 1600 engines?
Unique injectors for different years?

I have an "old" ... and I mean really old ... Mercedes repair garage very
near me.  Would the Mercedes and Type 3 engines be the same?

If they would have the appropriate, NEW injectors, for our engines, it
might be useful to have 4 of them on hand.  ???
