I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I have a 1990 240 and live in Canada. As it’s been getting colder here this problem has been getting worse. It takes a good half minute of cracking to get her running and once started I have to let the car idle until it has warmed up. If I try driving before it is completely warm it barely moves (a lot of shaking and no response from the accelerator). I replaced the AMM...that didn't help. I just put on a new FPR...seems to start better, but I still have the problem of it running like crap until its warm. Any ideas of what this could be. I would really appreciate the help. THANKS!
