Lack of power? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Vince the canuck on  Mon Apr 24 08:30 CST 2006 [RELATED]

Hi my 85 240dl wagon starts well and seems to run well so long as you dont have your foot down hard on the gas pedal. When the pedal is depressed hard as to pass or for more power needed on a hill the car merrily downshifts then no power...it sounds like it should be picking up speed but does not. As you let up and it shifts back into a higher gear you feel that it has power again? I dont think its an ECU problem, this has been replaced. I also dont think its fuel pump or filter related either. Filter is brand new and the pumps have both been replaced in recent years. I recently replaced the AMM with a used part but this seemed ok for quite a while before this latest power issue.
