    Change your *fuel accumulator*, located above the rear axle, passenger side. About a $100 part. Chang the fuel filter and any dried out fuel hoses at the same time.

    Hi... My 81' 380SL runs great at all speeds and gets good gas mileage. The car always idles at 1000 RPM hot or cold. When I start it hot I have to Floor it to start or it'll just turn over.
    It's a sharp car, without any other problems. I'm an old American car "Carb" guy and don't know about TBI cars... Any ideas? Thanks for your time.
