Hard Start




My engine is taking a long time to start, I've got new injectors, changed the ICU, searched the forums, kicked the tyres,  prayed to the Benz gods ..and cursed them.

WhatdoIdonow, whodoIturnto ?

Re: Hard Start

Check your fuel filters. They can be clogged. This happens especially if it has been sitting up. Rust from the tank can clog them very easily.

While checking the fuel system check the electrical system as well: cap/rotor, plugs and wires. Check also for loose lines and connections that can cause an air or vacuum leak.
