1989 190E cold starting problems
 

As the title states, Im having a hard time starting my 190E when its cold! It takes about 20 tries to get it to start, and when it does start it takes a few min to get it to act like its running on all cylinders. But after its warm it has no problems at all.. And when it warm outside it starts on the first try.. Whe would this be.. Please help.

Thanks: Gene.

Check for vacuum leak and the spark plugs/wires.

Gene,

Over Protection Relay (OVP) behind the battery, silver in color, most of the time is the problem. Check to make sure that the fuse is not blown. Another area you can check is the cold start valve. This valve gets power from OVP.
