No Max ;

Of course not .

Does it need to be recharged every summer ? .

That's the issue with my '82 240D and I have never really looked for the leak ~ most of the time it's the compressor shaft seal, I am told there's not a vastly improved seal that's not ceramic like the originals were .

[diesel_mercedes] Fungus & K100 Additive

 



Fred ;

Engines are engines unless they're two cycle so they sound pretty much the same .

Diesel engines almost never get ' misses ' because they can't foul spark plugs being compression ignition .

The tend to have a fairly narrow power band, why you need to use the gears just so to have any manner of performance .

I need to look under the hood and check the paper filter again, the last time I did it was still clean so maybe, just maybe I'm nearing the end of the fungus debacle .

My Coupe is running pretty well, it still lopes at idle when fully warmed up most of the time but not always,  I am quite sure the Injection Pump is kaput and am looking forward to replacing it but I can't until I have the damned recalcitrant VW out of my driveway .

Before the engine in m Coupe died in a large could of smoke, it ran pretty well on all five cylinders once it revved above 1,500 RPM .

Yeah, I have no idea how long it takes. I had just done the full flush (tank out) when we found K100. It was already running pretty good and never got bad again.

My problem is I have no idea what a good running diesel sounds like. It stays running. No heavy smoke and sounds like a really obnoxious baby toy.

Plenty of power, for what it is, once I learned how to use the gears. 

Irritating because I have a good ear for gas engines, so I hear everything but it means little.
