I bought a 1986 245DL with 215K miles for $300 last weekend. The car is partially disabled. It idles OK but dies within 2 or 3 seconds when the automatic transmission is shifted to Drive. When it dies, I can hear a loud popping noise coming from the exhaust tail pipe and also a strange sound, like letting air out of a pressurized tank, coming from the engine compartment of the passenger side.

I have not started trouble-shooting the car and thought maybe someone out there has experienced this symptom before.

Thanks,
Michael
