Hello rmmchl,

Depending on what model W113 and year of manufacture, the two identical relays are most likely for the CSV (intake manifold cold starting valve) and the injection pump starting solenoid. Both are starting aids.

I think you can get those 86/87(contact numbers) at Advance Auto et al.  Cheaper,  but a different package.
