1987 240DL Whats wrong with this car? when i bought this car it was with the understanding that it would cut off when you tried to put it in gear and start off. So I was told buy the previous owner that it was the tranny. However he was not sure ,because he is not familiar with cars neither am I. I believe that if it is haveing problems with going into gear that it is not the actual problem but the shift linkage. However i have been messing with this car the last couple of days and yesterday and have come onto something new, I believe that the fuel filter is clogged and i will attempt to replace this today.

Thanks -Randell
