Engine Stall
Hey Everyone
First post and new to this Forum!
I purchased my 1984 380SL last summer and I've had a great time driving it.
Just took it out of storage 3 days ago - started like a charm.
The past 2 days driving have included an occurrence ( 1 a day) where I'm driving around 25-25 mph and the engine suddenly stalls.
I pull over, put it into park, turn the ignition key to start and it starts fine allowing me to continue my drive.
I used a fuel stabilizer for the winter and running at just under a full tank right now.
The usual slower start but always turns over.
Its spring up here in Toronto so around 10C/50 F.
Anyone have any troubleshooting ideas before I further investigate - and by investigate, I mean taking it to a reputable mechanic.
Many thanks!
