1997 SL500 Engine stumble at idle

I posted this in the 129 section too:

My 97 SL500 stumbles at idle, like a miss but not as intense or aggressive. When it happens the oil pressure drops dangerously low, the car almost stalls, but wont completely cut out. Durning normal driving and acceleration, the car still runs flawlessly. The check engine light just came on today, the last time it did it gave me a misfire code on cylinder 1, but has yet to reproduce the same code. Anyone else have this happen, what was your fix?


I have seached the forum and see it explained as mass air sensor, o2 sensor, and some control module I havenever heard of, maybe someone can help. The spark plugs in the car are new, btw.

On a lighter note, I installed the KMAC front camber/caster kit, works liek a dream and I would highly reccomend it.
