Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

Is this timing using vacuum advance like some other autos? If so where does it come from and what is it off of?

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

OK I have checked the hose again and it is good. I am still wondering if there is a OBD tool on this machine. I have a pair of wires going into a white plug. It comes through the fire wall on the driver side. The wires are green and black and the plug as I said is white. I have looked online and can...

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

I checked the little hose and it is good, no cracks and I was wondering if there is an OBD for this tank of a car?

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

Hmmm I started hearing a high pitch hum from my car. Is this a main fuel pump going bad or is it due to the line being restricted.

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

Re: 1986 240dl Stalling

There is no valve on the fuel rail to test at. But I will test the clamp in the morning and hopefully all will be revieled.

While ideling in park I reved up the enging and as it started to spit sputter and BOG down, that is when I applied a pair of pliars to the return hose that goes back to the fuel tank. It cleared up and caught up with where the...
