My fear of the resistor plugs comes from this forum, which has been a life saver. If not for its invaluable help my MB would probably have gone to the crusher not long after I bought it. However, with the help and advise of the members here, yours included, I've made my 380 sel a reliable and enjoyable car.
Of course, the problem is that I've come to rely on the forum's advise so much that whatever I read is practically gospil. Whenever I've asked for help, the responses I've received have been spot on. Therefor my fear of resistor plugs.
Maybe this will be a good test of resistor copper core vrs. platinum. The "new" car, an 89 300 se, is nearly perfect. The only fault, so far, being the 2 instances of start/die in a week of daily driving. It will be interesting to see if the problem reapears now that I replaced the platinums with copper cores. I'll report if it does.
