Increasing Speed in a 1981 300D?
Hello all.
I've noticed that my 300D, though never a speed demon in the past, seems to be a little slower than she once was. The car especially has trouble picking up speed from 1st to 2nd gear. It actually sounds like the car has a little trouble when shifting between these two gears. No shaking or anything too nasty, just seems to be difficult for the car. I changed the oil and replaced the air filter thinking that might help some, but not too much luck. Any suggestions? |

Changed the fuel filters?

Yes sir, along with the oil.

Whoops! Apologies. I thought you typed oil filter. I haven't changed the fuel filter and will certainly do so.

Replace both, and fill the secondary before you put it on.
