    1986 Mercedes Benz 560 SEC ignition problem

    Please help !!
    Engine starts fine when cold. After driving a short distance (10 minutes) or longer (one hour or more). Park the car and return 15 - 30 minutes later. Turn the ignition key and the engine will continue to crank strong but will not start. So I shut it off , try again foot down on accelerator pedal , cranks , sputters sometimes it will start. Sometimes I have to shut it off, wait 15 minutes and it may start right away or have to repeat the process. The thing is that it does not happen all the time. It may start fine for a day , and then next day same problem.
    New plugs,new fuel lines,new fuel accumulator,fuel pump pressure ok,fuel injectors cleaned,new check valve.
    Appreciate your help!

    I'm sorry I can't help you here but I'd love some shots of this car. I know some who had one about 12 years ago..it's an amazing car.
