sounds like they sell cars there nowadays por kilo.

i thought 116 use carburator... stromberg or something.

the fuel distributor and injectors will cost far more than the car.

Hello - posted problem in another forum - thought I'd post here too. My 1999 E320 has started to stall while idling. I try to restart it but it will not turn over immediately. Minutes later, it finally starts. However, very scary to have this happen with an infant in the car. I refuse to drive it now. Has been in shop for a week being tested. Shop does not have Mercedes scan tool so determining problem difficult. Is this true?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

 

COULD BE A NUMBER OF THING ONLY MB DEALERS HAVE THE GOOD SCAN TO ,,SOME INDENPENT SHOPS LIKE OURS HAVE A REAL COMPUTER TOOL...YOUR CAR AS THE FLAT KEY CORRECT??THE RED END??

 

battery problem?
