Reason why the Mercedes Benz was idling poorly was due to lack of maintenance. If the owner replaced the engine air filter and the sparks plugs on time, he/she wouldn’t have those issues to begin with. Preventative maintenance is the key to make almost any car perform the way they were supposed to.

You do realise that Scotty hates working on anything other than Toyotas...he's a mechanic, not a driver. I would own certain models of Merc any day. And the extra time some maintenance jobs take is worth it if you actually know how to drive the car, not just use it as a taxi. My Golf's plugs are a pain to change, but it's worth every minute when I'm driving it, because it drives like a go-kart, not some land-yacht of a yank tank. Each to his own...

In 1967 my mother had a 1958 British Ford 2-door 'Popular' car. On a Sunday, I would clean its spark plugs and ignition points, and adjust the carburettor idling, so I could start the car, engage 1st gear, let up on the clutch, and get out of the car while it trickled along beside me at walking pace, like a family pet, perfectly smoothly. Remembering to shut it down before the intersection. Very much appreciating your advice.
