Unhappy Stalling/Idling Problem Mystery....Help!
I have a 94 220e and It has been running perfectley up until this week. When I go to start it, it starts right up. Then after about 10 secs it starts idling like crap. Then I go to put it in reverse and it stalls. But thats only sometimes. Then once im on the road, it drives fine. Then I hit a stoplight and it starts idling like crap and dies. Im really puzzled right now.

Any Ideas!?
Possibly the fuel filter/pump or ECV?

I'm thinking it's a vacuum leak. It could be cracked hoses to the idle air valve.
