Newbie needs help! Slow go up hills
Hey all, I'm a new owner of an 82 300sd. This is my first MB and first Diesel. She slows down badly going up hills (about 30mph at most). I changed both fuel filters, but it didn't seem to help. It is very dangerous to make a left hand turn in traffic. I am reading about an ALDA, but I don't even know what that is. Plus she will only downshift if I floor it, I think there may be a cable problem there, otherwise she shifts from 1-3 in the first 25-30 mph no matter how much fuel I am giving it. She shifts fine on normal driving conditions, but if I push her the trans flares. I know one problem at a time, so I guess I need the most help with the lack of power.
Thanks!
