My 1992 240 wagon starts and idles perfectly 99% of the time, but 3 times in the past couple of weeks it was very hard to start. I had to really pump the gas to keep it running which I never have to do. The only thing that is similar in all of the situations is that the car was pointed uphill. Any ideas?
