I have a 1995 Mercedes SL-500 that idles VERY ROUGH. Took it to the Mercedes Dealer- McGeorge, they said - REPLACE DISTRIBUTER CAPS... Did that at a local Eurpoean Repair Shop, and It Did Not correct the issue. Had the wires changed - NO IMPROVEMENT. The shop's computer indicated that it was a THROTTLE BODY issue... Does this sound right, and is there any way to simply increase the idle. The car runs GREAT, it just idles awful when I come to a stop; it seems a bit better when the AC is on (I guess thats because the engine adjusts the idle to accomodate the AC). When the car has been running for a while and I go to back up - It bucks out of control. When I stop at a light, the RPM's go from 400 - 900 and sometimes the engine will cut off. Love the car, Just hoping that someone has some advice..
Thanks
