Hello,

I own a 1987 300E A/T and currently having problems, Please help me!!!

A few days ago I've noticed uncommon vibration on my car, this happens only after you put the gear on drive or reverse. Also, I've noticed that the acceleration is no longer smooth. However, the car goes back to normal after it shifts to a higher gear. I decided to replace all the sparkplugs and wires. After doing that, the car goes back to normal. But, this only lasted for a couple of days. So, I decided to check on the sparkplugs and most of them are burned out. Please let me know what makes the sparkplugs burnout this quickly and how can I fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank's
Rito

It sounds like your car may have a very weak mixture caused by a vacuum leak.
Check all vacuum lines, especially to the gearbox.
