81 264 gle owner needs advice

Hi guys, I currently own an 81 264 gle with about 180000 kms on it. Im the second owner of the car and love it to death but recently it just started stalling on me after a number of stop and goes or in warm weather. I have done research on it and I have read alot of suggestions on what might be wrong and this forum has supplied the most details.
The problem is that I am thinking of selling the car but am confused. I read alot of reviews about how bad the b28f and b27f engines are especially in terms of camshafts going bad however my model has a b28e engine and cant find any information relating to this particular type of engine. I live in Australia now and so I bought the car here. Your advice would grately be appreciated and information about this engine as well. I am a student and I seriously dont want to open up the engine and play with the cams. Thanks guys
