Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum - nice to meet you all!

I have a 1991 Mercedes 190E 2.3 with 120K miles and I just love it. However, I am having a starting problem. We replaced the spark plugs a couple of weeks ago because the car would stall at startup until it warmed up about 20 minutes. About a week ago, I went to work and it was running fine. Stopped at my house to change, and on the way to the park,I heard asound (sounded like the front drivers side - like a piece of gum or paper was stuck on the tire). I pulled over to check and could not see anything. Anyways, I went for a walk for about 1/2 an hour, started the car and it would not crank to start the engine. The garage where my car is at can't figure out the problem, they said the sparks are fine, but they think? it is flooding. Any ideas?

Very sorry if this not where the post shoud go - not sure where else to out it.

Thanks for your help!

 

It it is fuel flooding, the car would still crank. It may not start but will crank. If the garage say it is flooding, it could be your fuel distributor.
