190E 2.6 (W201) Hardstarting

It takes like 7-10 ignition off-on in the mornings or when left and cools fopr like 2 hrs. What makes it so hard to start? After starting it moves sweet & fine. Even when i switch ignition off and restart afterfew minutes it will start in one kick. Whats wrong with what? Fuel system? which part of the fuel system. Switche key to ON and fuel is seen on fuel didtributor. Please.

Engine cold starting, autobox reverse faulty

I feel i'd better change the 20 yr old Mercedes engine and its autobox. Toyota's 1G [straight-6] engine my suit me. i once had a Toyota MarkII, 1G engine, autobox car. Till i soold the 1990 Japanese machine, i had had NO ignition problems. i dont get fair Mercedes support in my area, which is full of Toyota's, and very few Mercedes. My worry is on the rear wheels differential. Will the Mercedes differential work properly with a 1G straight-6 engine? I
