Idle control valve hoses, boot between throttle body and air flow
sensor horn, injector seals, and the o-ring on the injector holders
-- a vac will make it run OK cold (closed loop, higher fuel for the
cold engine) and then stumble, cough, stall, and suffer from terrible
"throttle lag" warm. Make become almost impossible to start warm if
the boot is really bad, as there will be little or no fuel injected.
The boot is a PITA, but not impossible.

Have you checked for all the "normal" vacuum leaks?

On this new 300E i just picked up, workign out the little bugs.
It starts up and runs great when cold. AFter it starts warming
up the idle starts to get a little rough, and finally gets to
where it will sometimes die. Afterwards it can be hard to start,
or start up somewhat easier. Sometimes it will sit there and
idle and try to die, then recover and run for a little while
longer etc. Just as quick things I swapped out the coil and the
ignition module, didnt make a difference. So, seems like its
something in the fuel injection. I also noticed that it seems to
have that smell like the cat is getting too hot. I noticed this
once before in the 380SE that I dropped the 5.0 euro in. Its cat
would glow red hot I think because it was not getting enough
fuel, running too lean because the tank screen or filter was
plugged up IIRC. Wonder if this one is running too lean when it
warms up? Doesnt seem to smoke but does have a funny smell like
its either running too rich or too lean. Anybody got any ideas?
