My 1995 mercedes c220 suddenly stop pulling and cut off?

I was riding along and suddenly the car just stop pulling and eventually cut off. I waited a few minutes and it cranked and ran normal for several miles and did it again. I thought it was the fuel filter so I changed it but got on the express way twice and and it just quit pulling and I had to have it towed. What are the things I need to check first; My address is [email protected]

check your harness wire. Check if the wire coating is brittle then you have to change it. The original harness has a lifespan so what we did is to replace the wirings one by one with a japanese made wires that wont get brittle. More durable

check your main harness wire. The harness wire becomes brittle and will eventually short circuit your car. Stalling and hard starting is the initial symptom. If not replaced soon, your car will smoke and eventually affect your computer box

SOURCE: I have a mercedes e240 which is a great car, but

this problem usually comes from crankshaft position sensor ( called L5 ), you have to replace it and check again.

SOURCE: I have a problem with my 1995 Merc c220, the fuel

Modern plastics seem to exude something that collects on all the surfaces inside the instrument clusters of many cars. When it settles on the pointers of instruments like the speedo and fuel gauge it produces the effect you mention, sticking the pointer to the rest stop until the meter has enough oomph to pull it free or you go over a bump.
If you have a good magnifying glass you should be able to see what's creating the problem by looking at the ends of the pointers..Actually, just condensation can do the same thing but it's not so sticky and you'd see a mist in the perspex cover too. Since the speedo and fuel gauge control comes from completely different areas these are the only thing I can think of that may link the two things. A couple of extractor hooks from MB would allow you to pull the instrument assembly from the dash. Disconnect the battery if you go this far as it's so easy to short something behind the instruments. Then it's a question of unclipping the two connectors at the back, pulling the cluster free, and unclipping the perspex cover. The procedure's well covered in the Haynes manual.

SOURCE: 1995 C220 Car starts up fine, 2-3 min. later

I own a 95 c220, & it had the same problem, it would just quit running while I was driving it, almost as if it was running out of gas, or stalling. The MB dealer said that there was no code, & that there was nothing they could do. So I found a mechanic in germany online that knew what it was. He said to change the Fuel Relay, if you look in your car manual, under relays & fuses, it should show you where its located. Mine was in the trunk on the right side of the spare tire, and it was Green. It was about 50 dollars from the dealer & they had to order it. The mechanic also told me, to be safe, to also change the Main Engine Relay, which in my car was located on the passenger side, under the hood, close to the windshield. It was white with a clear top. It was about 75 dollars from the dealer, and it showed in my manual where it was located, so I was able to undo it myself. Its simple you just unplug em, & plug in the new ones. And I've never had a problem since, & changed em about 8 years ago, it might be worth looking into. If your Fuel relay is bad and its malfunctioning, it will stop gas from going to the engine, making it quit running. Hope this helps

My c220 1995 with 107,000 mercedes consumes 1lt every 1500 km but it does not have exaust blue smoke

Check for external oil leakage along right side of cylinder-head. Oil can burn on exhaust in such small amounts you will not see it or smell it.

The gas gauge does not work on my 1995 c220. How do I troubleshoot the problem?

Most likely its the seding unit in the tank. Pull it and move the float to check.

Engine

Yes, a c220 engine will fit, but you will also have to use the ECM and wiring harness from the c220
