Hi I have a 95 SL600 with 15k that runs pretty good if I just ease it around. However if I gas it it seems to bog down and I even have had it stall if I really push it from a standing start. I've put in new KN filters and injection cleaner but it still bogs down. Any ideas out there?

I heard that the oil in those filters is bad for the air flow sensors and gums them up, I wonder if that could be your problem.

I had a similar problem with mine. At first I would get some cutting out sometimes when I would kick in the after-burners. Then all of a sudden your problem. Came on fast for me. I didn't make to the shop I was heading for when the the problem started and had to be towed in. went from bad to worse within about 100 miles. Made it to within 25 miles of the shop I was heading to on my own power.

Turned out to be the fuel pump. you can have it pressure tested. cost me about 800 to replace on the road. Cheaper if you do it of course. But I was 400 miles from home.
