Car has been in the hands of a professional for almost one year. He has replaced the fuel distributor, several other parts, cleaned out the fuel tank more thoroughly than I was able to do. Car is running beautifully, except it dies repeatedly after warm. He is looking for a crank position sensor and there seems to be none anywhere to be had.
After my experience trying to find parts for this car, I got discouraged and sold the 1986 420 SEL I have owned since late 2003. I have a feeling this car is next; it's a beauty but, with no parts, how can I live with it?
