| 1981 380sl - Poor acceleration from start
Hi all!
I have been restoring a 1981 380sl...so far so good!
The car just starting doing something strange.
After starting and warming up, it will run sluggish from initial acceleration until about 2000rpms, and then seems to run fine, even at high speed.
It will repeat the problem when braked to a stop, idle, press the gas, and repeat the slow crawl through 2000 rpm and then take off!
I stopped by a generic mechanic shop and they recommended adding Lucas Fuel Ingector cleaner and taking her for a long drive.
Did about 50 mile drive and had to get home. Didn't really notice any marked improvement.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
