PS. The car only misfires at full operating temperature.
That means the leads are reversed (should read 70%) I had the same problem when I first tested my duty% the positive lead in the #2 pin and the negitive lead in the #3 pin will give the correct reading... (something about mercedes useing reverse duty cycle) So your real percetage is heading toward 0 (richening)
Does the car misfire with the o2 sensor unplugged? (fully warmed up) If not try unplugging the coolant temp sensor.
