Hey guys, on my journey to restore my 260e I have come to fuel system.
Here is the problem with my car, on a cold morning I just have to tap the key it fires up no problem, but if I don’t let it warm up for awhile the first time I try to take off from a stop sign, the car doesn’t react to giving it gas for a second then BAM! It takes off, almost feels like it’s winding up but not reving.
I have replaced all of the following with the nicest quality parts I can get
-plug and wires
-cap and rotor
-O2 sensor
-fuel filter and air filter
-temp sensor for injection system
As well as the car has been swapped
To a manual transmission so it isn’t the transmission slipping. And the car does run better once warm, but does have a slight surging idle and I’d really like t get it as smooth as possible
So that’s why I have landed on rebuilding the fuel distributor.
I have seen countless videos on rebuilding it, and have zero hesitation on that, but I can’t seem to find info on where the fuel pressure tool hooks up and what stock levels should be.
If anyone can link a video, or a write up or just info on the steps to dialing it in once it’s been rebuilt.
