Hi guys,
?
I have a 1986 Euro 500 SEC with 238,087 miles;?my car?runs well and it has
not 
been abused, but it burns some?oil and runs too rich. In the morning when
I?try 
to start?the car, it will?not start unless I press on the gas paddle
or?attempt 
to start it?two times...
?
I'm thinking of replacing the cold start switch. What would you recommend?
Also 
is there an electronic device (computer) that regulates the idle and fuel 
mixture?
?
Thanks in advance,
?
James

??????? The best advice I have is to lean-out the engine a full
??????? half turn.? This is what I needed to do, after I changed 
the entire exhaust system.? It now takes 3 short tries 
to fire it up, but no more black residue in the tail-pipes,
all grey.? Performance has not been affected, at all, and
if you don?t like it, you can always turn it back, following
the inspection.? Of course, if the leak is too large, playing
with the tower may not solve the problem.? If it is the 
large boot on top, you may be able to seal it temporarily
with tape/glue.? If it is one of, or multiples of, the eight 
rings between the manifolds, you can change these yourself,
but it?s time-consuming.? Are you using premium grade
fuel??? Try some aviation fuel, 1/3 max to full tank.? Burns
very clean.? Just make certain that the cooling system 
works perfectly.

Hi Guy's
It's Clay again still playing w/the? 88 560 couldn't pass emissions too
rich. 
Took to have ajusted on machince at M/B service and they told me it was a
leaky 
intake manifold, and wanted $1600.00 to fix it. I almost dropped to my knees

because another mech. I've had some work done by told me it was listed as 6
hr. 
job. He said $600.00 unless he had problems w/bolts snapping of and then it 
depened on time. I once had a 88 560 sel and it was not passing and a
different 
guy put a BB in the hose of the map sensor and it passed perfect, but can't 
remenber if that one was running rich or lean. But when they opened the hood
for 
that fume test the tester squeezed the map hose to check. Any Ideas on what
I 
should do w/ this car, all health problems I've had, have had me on my back
for 
alittle of 9 Months and can't even walk over 20 ft. 

I broken the same ankle 3 times in the past year because of the leg giving
out. 
Couldn't have invasof Surgery because of comidin for heart. I was just
thinking 
of getting rid of it as, and eating the loss.
Thanks,
Clayton Moizo

Sure thing Mike. While I no longer have my SEC, I can drive my 300CE up from
Sarasota. May be able to get Jim Robertson to out as well if he's available.
Might even be able to get Attila down from Jacksonville if his work schedule
permits. I hate to say it, but I no longer have phone numbers for the other
coupe owners in the area. We used to get as many as a dozen or so coupes to
meet up at the Mar Vista Restaurant on Long Boat Key a couple of times a
year.
