I have a 1990 240DL (290k) which has an intermittent rough idle problem only during damp weather and rainy days. It only happens when the engine is cold in the mornings. After the car warms up (idle for about 10 minutes) the problem disappears.On dry days she will run fine. It appears as though it is intermittently missing. I have changed the coil, spark plug wires, rotors and distributor cap.

Your suggestions and help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Smaz
