300D Hard Start Hot and Sporadic Power Loss?
Hi there. First i want to thank everyone at MercedesSource for all the help to us. Thank you. I lump these two symptoms together because they seem to possibly be related. First, is the regular occurrance of hard starting only when the engine is still warm. My engine starts great when completely cold, i never have to crank more than a second. But most often when i return to my car after it has sat for up to 2 hours and is still warm , i have to crank three times usually, and sometimes 4 or 5. And then, sometimes there is a real loss of power that accompanies the car after i am started.
