I've been so impressed by this list, I thought I'd ask a Mercedes-specific question even before I try an MB site:
Any of you fine folk know how to retard the injection timing on a 1976 300D (115 114 chassis, OM 617 engine)? It runs fine on 25-30% diesel or biodiesel and 75-70% wvo, but it smokes a bit more than I'd like (whitish, but particulate-heavy, as far as I can tell). I've fiddled with the altitude compensator on the IP, but that just makes it stall. Any suggstions greatly appreciated! Kenji Fuse PS. The Haynes manual I have has a listing for the 'timing device' in the IP, but there is actually no info there... _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
