I always thought older diesel engines =slower speeds more torque. My 240 auto has no tac, so I dont know, and you can wind it out if you keep your foot in it, but also you can make it shift at much slower speeds by letting up on throttle. No need to wind it up unless your pulling a long hill or racing the Geo. Max

Kiss your fuel economy GOODBYE .
Plus , you're operating the engine way in excess of it's basic design parameters , don't be upset when it begins leaking oil from every joint and the piston rings begin to go.....
Thrash it all you want but don't complain about needing another quart of oil every fillup .
I can't imagine it being any smoother unless it used to shake like a paint mixer .
My Mercs all chirp the tires up shifting when I stand on it .
