1990 300SE (W126) Stalling issue (OVP?)

Hi all,


Well, after reading all the posts about the OVP, the next day my car started stalling mysteriously. It has only stalled 3 times total so far, so it's sort of hard to pin down.

It has only stalled (so far) when I am decelerating to make a 90 degree turn. Twice on a right and once on a left. It stalls about halfway through the turn leaving me with power steering by Armstrong to finish the turn.

It starts back up immediately, with no struggling to ignite. It then continues to run just fine......

I do not know what indicator lights may have been involved because I had my instrument cluster out to repair the odometer at the time. Yes, I did plug the vacuum line to the economy gauge so that isn't the issue. I do have my cluster back in now.....

Sounds like a typical OVP issue based on what I've read here, but I'm not sure and at $85, it's not something I want to just replace without knowing for sure....


Any advice or test procedures would be very much appreciated.


Thanks!
