190E Hot Start Problem
It has a 1.8 L gasoline engine.
The engine starts fine when cold.
When it's hot or warm (say, stopping the engine for 15-30 min), the engine cranks but won't start. I've to engage the starter many times before it started. Then I've to depress the accelerator aggressively a few time before it runs smoothly.
But if I let it cool down (about 2-3hrs), it starts fine again.
Another problem is: the engine suddenly died when I was driving (this happened a few times already)... this is very dangerous.
My mechanic replaced the following:
- Fuel Pressure Regulator
- Fuel Accumulator
- Spark plugs
- Cap and Rotor
It didn't solve the problem...
Please help.
