Saturday 8/15 we set heat records in So. Cal. so naturally I was out there working on my beloved Diesel Sports Coupe......
I began by doing a routine valve adjust , easy to do because I still had the fuel injectors out for pop testing .
I kinda go lost in the ' might as wells ' and after four or five brutal hours the engine lit off and settled into the smooth idle we all know and expect .
Vastly less smoking now , the off idle power is still too soft but it easily reached 95 MPH @ 1/2 throttle this morning and was still accelerating .
I'm hoping the fuel economy improves too .
Has anyone ever touched the EGR valve ? . I'm wondering if it's stuck open or leaking a bit .
