[W126 Coupe] Hesitation while driving

[Mike R.]

Mine did that until I turned the fuel injection adjustment 1/4 turn CCW.
This is the 3mm allen through the air cleaner adjustment. Car stumbled,
hesitated, dangerous driving across an intersection because unless I used
LOTS of loud pedal it wasn't going anywhere. That simple adjustment
transformed the car back into a great machine.

Right off the line. Hesitates under load I punch it and it acts like  
the fuel filter is clogged. Sputters then goes then sputters again. If  
I only use 10% gas it goes but takes forever to get up to speed.
