I'm having a sudden issue with my '84 240 DL Wagon (215,000 miles). I purchased it 2 months ago and it's been running wonderfully.
Yesterday afternoon, out of the blue, it had trouble kicking over. Once it did, the idle was erratic and shook the car. I was able to rev it--and while revved, it felt and sounded normal. However, if I try to move the car at all in a low gear, or at idle, it stalls out.
There were no abnormal "symptoms" leading up to this--the car was running very well.
We did hit a pretty deep pothole a few days before the problem surfaced.
I've checked everything I could think of (even added gas in case the gas gauge had broken) and I'm stuck. Obviously I didn't check the right thing.
Any help would be sincerely appreciated.
