A big shout out to Peter Hertzing for helping diagnose the problem the problem on my wife's car. He suggested the idle air control motor/valve and that was indeed the problem. I was working on her car in the dark parking lot of her office with nothing but the glow from my I-Phone to illuminate the engine. Peter made some great suggestions. I bought the part, but could not put it on. I had to have the car towed, and when it came off the truck it started and ran fine. But, I had my indy put the part on. When he got the old one off, it was definitely gunked up and filthy and the valve was sticking. So, I am confident that fixed the problem.
Thanks to this Mercedes list member who helped me diagnose a problem on a Ford. This really is a great group! Donald H.
