> somewhat above the 80 mark.

I think 85 is nominal.  But, senders and gauges lie, so check the
head temp immediately after a good run with a quality IR thermometer.

[MBZ] Todays fun with the 210

2021-12-12 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Last night I was in town, started the car up and got the BAS ABS error 
and of course no cruise control. Restarted car and no light but still 
not cruise.  Today hooked up DAS and of course brake lite switch.  I 
thought I had one or 2 on the shelf, but I have 2 cranks sensors on the 
shelf.  I reset it and it has not come back, but I have not driven the 
car yet, guess i will put in an order.


On another note, what sort of mileage are you folks with 606 turbos 
getting?  I can't seem to break 28-29 normally, even on all highway 
trips.  I have hit 30-31 once or twice.  At first the Chinese clutch 
locked up most of the time so I figured that might be dragging it down.  
Put the correct one on, also retimed the IP and seems like there was 
something else I did and it did not seem to make a difference on 
mileage.  With the IP retime, the smoke at idle seems to have stopped 
but today it seemed I got a wiff on strong diesel exhaust and thought I 
saw some smoke.  I am wondering if I need to just go ahead and replace 
the nozzles?


I know this is a stupid question, but what temp should it be running?  
This one seems to run right at the 80 mark most of the time and am 
wondering if that is too low causing increased fuel consumption.  Seems 
most of the other 606 powered 210s I have had usually ran somewhat above 
the 80 mark.
