[W126 Coupe] powee problem

[David Fatovic]

some new information. since we had spark I decided to
try something. I took the air cleaner cover off and
sprayed some carb cleaner in the air valve. the car
started but died when I stopped spraying. I have it on
a tow truck to a shop that has some better diagnostics
then I have. but now it looks like a fuel issue not
ignition.
