|  380SL has developed a engine murmer 
			
			I have a '84 380sl and just recently it has developed a slight murmer  at idle.  It's a little miss-fire I guess but it's enough to shake the car a bit.  I have replaced the plugs, and added some techron to the gas.  I have ordered the metal connectors to the plugs.  I am hopeful that this will help.   I was also replacing the air filter and noticed a lot of gunk on the butterfly value of the carb. I increased the idle and sprayed in some gumout. This cleaned things up nicely but didn't change the problem. So any suggestions about next steps before I deplete my checking account? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer Captgrail |
