Re: [diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Checl '83 300CD Slushbox

 

Nate,

I have a few turbos, one from Brian's earlier blown engine. Might be in parts. I think it had the earlier turbo. On my current turbo, I just capped my AIR off, as the system had vacuum leak at the valve, on the fender.

Should be something in that box for you to use. Too busy to dig at the moment

Now all I needs do is find an old turbo languishing in someone's junk pile to begin with .

Low fuel lamp on @ 398 miles .
