1985 sl 380
 

This one is harshing my buzz. My 1985 sl doesn't idle well in warm weather. It seems once the outside temp is above 70 degrees the engine searches for an idle rpm or will killafter a sudden deceleration. Cold engine start up is ok but it is a little rich/sluggish on start up. Are there temp sensors to adjust or is there an idle choke adjustment of some sort? Any help is appreciated.

Very difficult to properly diagnose without use of fuel pressure meter, lambda meter, and scope. Alot of indipendents have good exp with these cis problems but a lot of people just guess too and it can easily cost thousands.

It could possibly be your fuel distributor (expensive)...common problem on that car!
