Weird engine behavior
Hey guys, back on here again regarding my w123 1984 230ce. My m102 engine has been running weirdy lately. Its starting to get colder where I am and my car on cold start isnt going to 3 bar oil pressure when first starting. Its at about 2. But when the weather was warm it would start off at 3 bar on the gauge. Additionally the car is at an almost stall speed low rpm like 400 rpm on cold start sometimes it will even stall on its own if I don't supplement extra revs. Is there anyone whos had a similar problem or anyone with an idea of where to start?
Im using 10w-30 oil and i just did an oil change with about 5L so basically almost full.
Thanks in advance , James
