i have a 92 240 since new. perfectly maintained but in the last 6 mos. it is hard starting in the am when it rains overnight only. only the first start ib=n the am and then drives perfectly all day. the problem is oddly tied to the amount of rain . little rain little problem,lots lots of problem.cannot duplicate with a hose soak.my mechanic for all these years never saw anything like it. i called IPD in oregon and they were stymied also. now i let it run for 5-10 minutes in the driveway and i am good to go for the day. one thing i notice is a little fuel odor but everything checks out. ideas or experience like this?
