Hello everyone, i put a new ignition coil in the car today hoping it would
help but it didnt.  As I negelected to state earlier the car really seems
like its misfiring after just starting up you almost give it full step
down and its like your not going anywhere for a few seconds.  ...

Well, considering no reply re this querry, I thought I would post my
observations re doing just that .... someone else may just be as cheap as me.
Removing the metal shield (bend the crimps away) is no problem and the rubber
covers slips off without any problem after the ignition ...

1992 mercedes 300e will not start in cold weather. Once weather warms up,
it will start.

I don't use it and unfortuantely haven't tested it.
So if someone wants it, $175 will get it shipped in the US.
PayPal accepted.

If there is one thing to be learned from the eviction
of Juergen Schrempp from the top spot at Daimler-Chrysler,

I've noticed that the speedometer on my '95 E320 has become erratic -
sometimes wobbling a lot (esp. at low speed), sometimes not even engaging

and if so how hard is it to re-lube these?

plugs are there and what do I need to watch out for when I replace
them?
Thanks.

This is a VERY open-ended question:  I have an opportunity to buy a 1979
240D from a mechanic who specializes in German cars.  He comes highly
recommended.  He says it's been well maintained, has 130,000 miles on it and
except for faded paint and the AC doesn't work it's a fine car. ...

The fuel  level transmitter is messed up, it is fine until reaching
3/4 level, then it starts to become intmt. When it is down to about
1/4, it is mostly inop. It dawned on me that the sludge/crud is at the
bottom of the tank, and so the lower down you go on the transmitter,

My water temperature remains normal most of the time.  But when the engine
is working under load, such as when going uphill for a minute or more, water
temp rises to nearly the redline.  I'm talking about modest hills here, no
