1993 Mercedes Benz 300 SE

My 1993 mercedes benz 300 SE is having trouble staying running. it's hesitant starting but once is starts it runs about 5 minutes and then shut off and also shut off immediately when the throttle is pressed. The fuel pumps, fuel filter, fuel presser regulator have all been change. What else could possibly be the problem?

Engine wiring harness upper and lower could be degraded, coil could be bad, throttle positioner, fuel distributor could be bad and depending if its a half year car and you have an OVP that could be bad. Also after a full tune up have someone adjust the duty cycle.

You have an electrical short. Did someone install a trailer hitch, alarm or stereo recently?

take it to a shop and have it checked out - unless you know what work was some on the car and you know how to un-do it.

1992 mercedes 300e cranks over starts for a second then die

Could be a number of things. Start with the fuel pump relay. When your key is in the start/crank pos. it overides the relay as soon as you release the key to run possition the relay has to stay ingaged or the fuel pump will shut off. Also look in your owners manuel for impact or emergency fuel shut off switch reset.

Looking at buying a 1993 300 se

Struts are about 200 dollars and you can DIY pretty easy. Transmissions can be costly so be careful.
