[diesel_mercedes] IP Timing

 

You are correct Alan ;

I want to learn how to do it the very best I can as i have discovered in the last 50 years that proper ignition timing is *everything* when it comes to good reliable power and driveability .

Confirming my impression that in addition to seismic faults there is a magnetic field that sucked all of the old MBs to California.  There are very few left in scrapyards on the East Coast.  Anyway, I seem to remember timing a 123 Diesel a long time ago.  I was using the fsm but no electric pump.  As I remember it involved adjusting the timing so that a small drip of fuel dropped out of a short pipe screwed into the #1 cylinder feed on the pump.  Hopefully someone with either better information or a better memory can provide some more accurate help.

I spent two days afternoons removing an Injection Pump from an 1985 W-126 300SD , I plan to try it in my '84 300CD as it still smokes and I've replaced everything else....

It'll prolly turn out the IP is mis-timed but I want to teach myself how to properly time the IP anyway....

Suggestions or details on how to do it @ home gratefully accepted .

I read in the FSM I'm supposed to connect up an electric fuel transfer pump ? .- Nate
