before u switch the engine off,
turn the gear lever to neutral.for a couple of seconds.
the car will start all the time on half kick.
the problem is the cranck shaft position sensor.
hey speaking of cold start problems I just picked up a new ovp relay for $7 off ebay. Whats the normal price I could get one for?(just seeing if I got a good deal or great deal)

since i repaired the hand brake,i have been leaving the motor on neutal with the handbrake ON.
SINCE THEN as u know u have to push the leaver to park or NEUTRAL.
no cold start problems AT ALL.
THIS MEANS THE COLD START VALVE , TEMP SENSOR, ARE FINE.
come on what other result would it be.

I bought one from MB for the 260E I used to own,
for $130 new Canadian.
You got a good deal,trust me !
Yay!
I got my ovp for $80 at the dealership. So idd, Yay! (for you... hehe)
It's just been shipped. Even though my ovp looks good from the outside, I think this one is in much better condition(inside and out). Hopefully something on my car will increase b/c of this(such as the cold starting at least)
