Ever since I have that "NEW" engine put in my car, I noticed that it is hard starting even in warm weather. It has to crank quite a bit. Two or three pre-glows help. It fires instantly, but does not stay running at first. Lots of smoke for may be a minute. Than it clears out and runs smooth. Starts quick when engine is warm. Engine smokes some on hard acceleration. All 5 glow plugs check good (0.6 Ohm). Fuel mileage is 22 - 24 MPG. 0-100 KPH < 20 sec. No fuel leaks visible at the primer pump or anywhere else. Blow-by is normal. Would a diesel purge help? -- Hans Neureiter, Houston, TX '82 300SD, '95 E300D _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
