Trouble Starting W201 W/ 2.6L
I have a 1990 w201 2.6. 109k miles. It is having problems starting. It seems to have started when the weather got hot and humid here in the mid west. I am using prem fuel. Starts pretty quick cold. But after it warms up it is very hard to start. Once running it is smooth as can be. Accelerates fine. Any Ideas?
Thanks, Larry

190E 2.3L (1988)
Warm start problem.
Hey, listen
I have got the same problem and spent lot's of time on my observations. The car that I possess is MB 190E 2.3 of 1988. As you have described above it starts well when the engine is cold and has problems with starting when the engine is respectively hot. If that would of happen in inverse order, I would probably blame cold start system or something else. But in this case I wasn't able to find a solution just yet. Perhabs the fuel mixture isn't adjusted as it should be..
