Asking advice for various problems, -94 C200

Hi, my 1994 C200 petrol manual with the M111.941 engine has been having some annoying symptoms for a while and slowly getting worse, so I finally want to fix everything that needs fixing.

Problems:

I have quite a bit of revhang sometimes, usually when it happens it’s around 1000-1500 rpm for a few seconds after I let off the throttle.

The car is also a bit hard to start sometimes, but only when it’s warm. It cranks for ~5s before starting, but it always starts. Very quick to start when it’s fully cold.

The temperature needle jumps up and down a bit, it stays at the correct temperature for a while sometimes but usually it’s doing weird things.

Relevant info:

It’s an early model that uses the PMS system, meaning no maf sensor. The fueling is controlled mostly by manifold pressure from my understanding, but I’m no expert on this.

At this point the car has been driven 273000km, I have only owned it for the last 40k but it’s been going strong even with these little issues being there for a long time now.

Already done:

- Relearn mode
- Replaced all three coolant temp sensors
- Cleaned the butterfly valve in the throttlebody

If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appriciate it!

As the title says I found this watch, just laying outside. All I know is that it’s a quartz movement but with a rotor like an automatic, and that it likely needs a capacitor as it doesn’t really hold charge and the second hand jumps two steps at a time.

I have very recently gotten into watches and I actually found this watch the same day that my first ”real” watch arrived in the mail (tsuyosa), so I got a little kickstart to my collection. Can anyone tell me more about these Kinetic line watches? Was it a good find?
