The site is fantastic thanks to all those who help out, but I have another problem with my prized machine.
I recently have to wait for other cars passing by before I start the car up (190E2.6Manual) because of a loud clattering noise like electrical chattering or something.
If I have to go anywhere late at night it shatters the silence of our street and sounds like it won't start but won't give up trying, sometimes you get a sound like when you turn the key with your engine already running.
Also I've had recurring problem of ignition turning engine then go silent(with key still turned) then turning engine again,then silent then turns and fires, like the circuit breaking down. I have got NGK plugs but am going to buy bosch ones from Halfords unless anyone knows of anywhere that will just supply 6plugs and not have to buy two packs of four. The stalling problem is nowhere near as bad since knew fuel filter fitted,almost non-existent but more apparent when under load at night - lights on full,turning corner so power steering in use,clutch dipped so just at idle.
Have checked history for ignition related topic but found nothing similar to the racket this is making, it always starts but I could never sneak out of our street!
