Our 1989 245DL runs really well; lots of pick-up, smooth shifts, good drop-down when passing. But at stop lights, warm or cold, it bucks and shakes like the dickens. Any ideas? I put some octane booster into the tank today and that my have helped a little, but I'd like a place to start to look for a cure, not a symptom reducer.

Thanks.

D.
