Intermittent Rough Idle When Engine Hot

Hello Forum.

My 1985 300D shakes a bit to much at traffic lights sometimes. This is with engine up to temperature. One can feel the whole car moving from side to side when it is at its worst, or so it seems. Passengers notice it and comment.

At other times, it might sit at a light and shake none, or hardly any at all, like I would expect my gas 300SE not to shake.

When it is shaking at its worst, if I give a bit of fuel to increase the rpm a couple hundred turns per minute, then it smooths out. If I let up, it is much more likely than not to resume the shaking.

Have you had and solved this problem before? What do you think the solution is?

Thanks!
