Re: 240DL 1990, Very hard to start when warm/hot, without Gas pe

A second vote for faulty fuel pressure regulator. Pull vacuum line off and see if there is gas dripping out of it. If so the diaphram has a hole in it. I was having the same problem. I found one for $76 at http://www.fcpgroton.com In retrospect, I wish I would have done that check. I did have fuel ...

Well check it out just incase. I will check mine probably this weekend. I want to check out this crank position sensor too, where it located? I'm 99% sure a new fuel pressure regulator fixed mine.

The crank sensor didn't work, but it was cracked so it was good to replace proactively.

Next up is the fuel pressure regulator.
