Dropping a cylinder at idle
 

Hi all,

Car is 92 400e with 136k miles. When car is started it runs liek a champ. After reaching normal op temp if I sit at idle it starts running very rough and power goes way off. As soon as I get the rev's up over 3000 it clears and runs strong and clean again. If I get caught at anothe rlight it drops the cylinder again runs rough as a cob until I get the revs up over 3000 and it clears again.

I suspect a sensor malfunction of some kind. I'm going to try and attack it this weekend ... any suggestions on where to start looking or testing for the culprit?

TIA

pull your plugs to check for fouling :eek: .... a free test :D and major carbon/gunk should be easy to spot. :eek:
