[diesel_mercedes] Turbo Boost Adjustment

 


THANK YOU ! .

Those two videos are very informative although the exact method of _how_ to adjust the boost pressure isn't included .

I also found this Kent video that's very helpful : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36CvnGHvLvE

I have a couple other things to test yet but now I have an ever increasing store of knowledge to pull from and I'll get this sorted out ~ so many bodge repairs were done to my poor old Coupe before I got it and I'm still learning the basic thing that should, nee, must be checked, yested and adjusted before making any other changes .

My car came with the wastegate hose disconnected and plugged, I wondered why and when I rebuilt the turbo some time back I wondered about the waste gate proper but didn't know how to test / service / adjust it, maybe now is the time .

ALL here who like to tinker should go watch these three short videos, I'm sure in the near future I'll be posting what I've learned about basic trouble shooting .

[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Check '84 300CD Slushbox

 

Mixed driving, about 200 miles in Las Vegas traffic, the rest on the open road, all with the AC cranked up as far as it'l go .

Low fuel lamp on at 343 miles .

363 miles, 21.8 MPG .

Biobor used .

I filled up in Barstow, Ca. where it was 108* F, changed the nearly clean filter just because, the place I made it to with the low fuel lamp glowing and SWMBO yammering nonstop about why didn't I fill it up in Las Vegas where I'd found major branded Diesel fuel for $3.27 gallon, only had B20 bio Diesel ~ it's medium yellow, a color I dislike in any fuels and don't trust but we'll see .
