Gday Mate
Did you find a solution to the problem as I have the same and curious to know what you have done to get rid of it?
When I start my car from cold its idling smooth, driving smooth, bur after about 20mins it start to "get the shakes" when I stop at a traffic light, and also when I pull away....However the car drive smoothy oce I`m on the move......Told it might be the distributor cap......Any advice or suggestions?

I was having all kinds of strange idle issues. I replaced my OVP and it runs and starts much smoother. I have come to find out, the ovp is very easily fried or damaged in these. They don't cost much so definitely worth replacing

Thanks for your reply!
For me as a totally stupid with technical stuff, what is
a OVP and where is it located?
Maybe a pic perhaps, please!!

OVP is a silver/gray relay behind the battery.
DON'T by this cheap relay's on ebay. It's much better to re-soldering the relay.
I did by a new OVP to my "190K". And as long I did use this with a newer EFI+++ & alarm did I find out that this are no good. Suddenly my alarm starts and the reason was that the relay did go on when it want,somethimes the car didn't stop. I did repair my old relay and everything are ok.
On a stock w201+++ can't you figure out this, only if your battery is empty,
