Jonathan,

Do you have a grille for an 89 560 SEC? Cost?

    Hi, 



    I desperately need some help. I have a 380SEC 1984 model. When I start it in the morning or after a rest of more than 4 hours, it starts up fine, however, if I drive it for say 20 mins, switch it off, try and start it again its as if the motor gets no fuel and wont start. The starter is turning over but nothing. Then if I leave it there over night, it will start up fine the next day. I have taken it to 2 mechanics that can't seem to find a problem as it will start for them after playing around with it for a while.



    Any suggestions??



    Thanks



    Jim (Melbourne Australia)
