[W126 Coupe] Vacuum problem? Got the car running! Like Shit!

[Sharan Bains]

There is only ON MB that officially takes MB plugs - and that is the 190E 
2.3/2.5 Cosworth...a high performance engine which maximises those plugs.

I also believe the heat range on w9DC's is too high - w7DC's work 
brilliantly. NGK's are good too.
