Starts, but has to crank a few seconds longer than normal 200 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be goober on  Wed Nov 7 11:16 CST 2001 [RELATED]


I am looking at a 1987 240 that is a really solid car, no rattles or bangs approx. 140000 miles, floorboards are NOT rusted, neither are the rockers. Drives like a new one, paint is a little oxidized, the usual cracked map holders on the doors, yellowed headlight lens, etc. For $2000.00, this car is a hell of a deal. Anyway, the only thing that I can find wrong is that it doesn't start right up when you turn the key, like most 240's. It has to crank for just a few seconds longer. Cold start injector? Any help would be greatly appreciated, regardless, I am going to jump on this, it is unbeleivable value for the dollar. I would rather have one of these cars than a new: kia, daewoo, toyota, nissan, honda, you get the picture, and no car payments!!
