190e 2.6 Engine Stops

[brianm]

I know I have seen this before somewhere but...

1991 190e 2.6 auto. 170K Sweet as a nut but for no apparent reason stops now and again.

Changed the big black solenoid (back of the fuse box) with a used one from Dronsfield. Lasted 4 weeks. It stopped again today.

Still a dodgy solenoid? Something else I am missing.

Other than that - silky!

2 possibilities over voltage relay (big) maybe with fuse on top? and fuel pump relay (smaller)with 6zyl or kickdown marked on it. Replace both with new ones and take it from there. their location varies but normally round about the ECU somewhere. theres agood web site here about the fuel pump relay http://ow.no/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=103&Itemid=91
