Ernest, I like your conclusions. I had similar symptoms when I first got my 190D this time last year. It'd start and run but had no get up and go until the engine had warmed the fuel for awhile. I bought the car in New Jersey in mid-December, it had been sitting for a few weeks. I think it had a tank of summer fuel in it. Its nice that the newer cars have the fuel-warming provision, otherwise, add anti-gell and hope. Once I'd run about 1/4 tank of good winter fuel through it (oh and a couple cans of purge) it was fine.

I had a kidney stone (avoid these, they are not worth the trouble!) and the doctor gave me some for pain. The dispenser at the drug store asked me if I took painkillers or narcotics of any kind, and I of course said no, why do you ask? He replied that I probably need to be in bed when I took the Percocets, then. I had an "episode" at 5 am, finally gave in a took two at 5:30. Within a minute I was comatose, woke up at 9:30 but couldn't focus both eyes at the same time in the same place, and finally managed to get to the phone at 10:00 and call in. For the life of me I cannot understand why someone would call abusing these things "recreational". "Suicidal the slow way" is more like it, who wants to be incapacitated? Peter
