Hi everyone
I got a strange problem with my 190E which I am trying to resolve. From the beginning that i had the car, some 6 months now, the car would accelerate un eavenly. Say I'm at a red light and I step on the gas, say 50% throttle, the car will rev up to 1500 rpm and stay there for a second, and then it would contine on. This was bothering me a bit, but it did not cause any problems. However, now that I am replacing a few pieces of my fule delivery system, the car started acting a bit more strange then usual. Once I hit 3000rpm on the highway, sometimes, not always the engine will not give the power it should. It feels as if I'm pushing down the accelerator and releasing it all the time, also un eavenly. I have reasons to believe that somewhere along the way the fuel line might have a clog and this causes it. Next week i will receive my parts and I will replace a portion of the fuel line, I hope this is it, but if not, does anyone have any idea what it could be?

Thanx a lot jreate, I'll take a look at it and see what goes on in there. I'm quite sure it has to do with fuel delivery.

No it's not the tranny, the engine does this and I have very good reasons to believe that it's fuel starvation caused by something, either bad cold air shut off valve, or something called an EAJ valve. I'm waiting for my service CD to arrive so I can check all these things. One thing I know is that I want to get it fixed.
