....and most of the people that I've asked. First, let me give you a little background so that you know where I stand:
I just replaced the motor in my 95 240 with a motor out of a 97/98. The new motor only has 54K miles on it. Now we didn't know that it was a OBDII motor until the actual installation was almost done. So the mechanic had to do some custom electrical work in order to compromise the OBD1/OBD2 conflict; along with some vacuum lines. Now the car was running fine for about two days before my brand new clutch starting slipping really bad which isn't the problem in question. B/c of the clutch I took the car to another mechanic and b/c of my own stupidity...he ran the car out of gas. Now here's where you guys come into play. Since the car ran out gas it's been running like absolute ****! The car had a really hard time turning over and once it did it would stutter and stubble. If I tap the gas ever so slightly the car wants to stall. On top of that.....if I am to coast at 2k or 3k rpms and try to drop the hammer, it will bog-down violently! The od thing is that these symtoms get progressively worse as the temp of the engine increases.
What I've done to try remedy the problem so far:new fuel filter (z32)new MAFnew fuel filter
and one last thing....I checked the OBD and it was throwing a Code 33 (o2 sensor). So, naturally I'm going to replacet that and it just so happens that a o2 sensor for a 97/98 lying around. I could use this one, but I'm not sure how to the convert the 3-wires of the 97/98 to the 1-wire of my 95. I searched around and didn't come up with much of anything concerning this issue.
I know this is a good bit to take in and diagnose, but I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions that you guys can give me.
Thanks in advance,Chris
