Hi,
I have recently got a 1983 230E Auto, which goes/went well with no problems... however recently it has randomly cut out for no obvious reason. It will all of a sudden be as though it has run out of fuel, when you try to re start it, it fires and then dies again, this will happen for a few minutes (sometimes more) then all or a sudden it will fire and then rev up as normal, and then carry on running as it should.... any ideas?
Underneath at the back there is what appears to be two fuel filters? and a 12v fuel pump? is this correct? Should this pump be running when the ignition is on? if not what is it for?
Any advice or info gratefully received
Thanks,
Dan R
