Re: [MBZ] '87 30TD rev counter.
No, that one is for diagnostics, specifically setting the injection timing with the dynamic tool. The one for the idle speed/tach is on the rear of the engine reading off the flywheel.

Re: [MBZ] Somebody should buy this
Yea but it may have been fixed. The rod bender problem usually shows up by 120k.

Re: [MBZ] '87 30TD rev counter.
Ok, thanks. Is the Hall effect sensor for the OM603 located on the front of the engine with the magnet on crankshaft damper as on the OM617/616? The connector that attaches the tail from the sensor to the harness. It's exposed and corrodes, resulting in poor transmission of the signal (which is not voltage, but a pulse generated by the Hall Effect pickup). The result is first an erratic tachometer/idle speed control, followed by eventual loss of signal to the amplifier.

Peter Interesting. Thanks again. We have a 87 124 300D that has a completely wacko idle. Everything I've tried makes no difference. I think the tach also goes wacky with the idle. But when I unhook the idle speed electric connector on the pump it does the same wacky idle thing.I never thought of looking at the tach/instrument cluster as Dan suggests. Is there some other connection between the hall effect sensor/tachometer to the throttle or idle speed control that would work with the EDC unhooked? (I think EDC is the book term for the electronic idle speed control plug on the top of the IP.) It sounds like a flakey signal from the sensor would cause this, but I don't understand how it could work with the plug on top of the IP disconnected. Next time I see the car (probably 6 months) I will look for this sender and connector at the rear. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
Re: [MBZ] '87 30TD rev counter.
Are you talking about the engine to body ground strap, or a different connector? The connector behind the engine is usually the one that gets corroded. Mine comes and goes, along with the idle speed control, and I suppose I should get in there and clean that connector sometime.
