A couple question on injectors:
1) Will new nozzles reduce or eliminate leaking injectors?
2) Can new nozzles be properly installed without recalibrating the injectors
with a pressure tester?

My 300SD when parked up hill would drain the fuel from the fuel filter. Then
it would start the next morning run for about 2 seconds and die. Never to

Found out that the fuel filter was allowing air to get in, but would not

Wondering if you've either got a leak in a fuel line or a bad fuel filter.
That car should definately start at 17 degrees, the windchill does NOT lower
the temp.
