I bought this 92 300e the other day and ran it around (before, during and after purchase) for a bout 2.5 hours. only thing i noticed was a mild stumble once or twice but that was it. didn't use it yesterday but did
start it to see if battery was holding charge. it seemed to be fine.

today i start it (raining since yesterday) and warm it up for 10 minutes and everything is fine. pull out of the drive and it stumbles hard but then goes another 1/4 mile running ok but then dies.
try to start and nothing (no crank), but the tach needle jumps up to 5k rpm when i turn the key. go back an hour later and it starts up and makes it home.
now i can start it and it runs for 2-3 minutes before the abs light comes on and the blower comes on (climate control is set to 'off') and it dies.... plus the power seat doesn't work when this happens and the battery acts as if it's dead.
wait for 10-15 min and car turns over fine and starts but then the abs light comes on after a few mins and it dies....
is it possible the ovp is getting damp due to the 2 days of constant rain (otherwise why did it not act up the other day)? or is some other gremlin at work??
