Occasional stalling

I have a 87 190e 2.3 and it recently started to run rough at traffic lights and then stall. But it only happens once in a while. new plugs, points, etc have been installed, and recent gas filter and transmission service were completed.

I looked over all the vacuum lines and wiring and can't find a fault.

Anyone had the same trouble?

190E
Hey,

I had a similar problem with my 190E 2.0 1987. I first had the fuel relay changed but the problem was still there. Later on found out that it was an injector/injection problem. My car used to stall everywhere it went but after changing the injection, it was as good as new. The injector is a wear and tear part so might have to change it some time.

Injector prob?

Did you just replace the injectors -- or was there more than that?

New or rebuilt parts?

I had the same problem with my car and it turned out to be the ignition coil. Check and see what kind of power you are getting out of that. 1986 mercedes 190 E

That time I had to change the injectors. Later on the fuel pump stopped working so it had a similar problem. As far as I know, I had to check the injectors, fuel pump and fuel relay. One of those three could be the problem
