I am starting to regret purchasing this 300D.
Todays Failures:
1) Failure to swap 190E ABS units due to stripped head on a fitting
2) Failure to swap 300D soft lines due to stubborn fittings
3) Failure of turbo to be anything but useless. 0-60 time consistently 20 seconds. Is that 240D world?
4) Failure of governor. It popped out. AGAIN. I do not know how. Secondary pump is disabled. Plastic gears appear intact. No broken metal on the snap ring groove area.
I've got it scheduled for a visit to the shop on Wednesday to check out the ATF leak I've been having, but that may have just been overfilled and/or a slightly lose pan bolt.
Additionally, I might have them install this actuator and I will handle the plumbing aspect of it. I'll need to get new line for the gauge that I have as I believe there is a kink in the line.
And probably have to get a boost controller as that actuator cuts out at like 7 psi.
On #4. We have it almost reseated but the problem is it will not go "inwards" fully so to remedy this. The secondary pump will be completely gutted. The two drive gears are already removed. Now the rest of the innards will be sacrificed.

I know they replaced this secondary pump with a plain cover at some point. If anyone knows that part number I would be interested in it. Thanks. Edit: Found the part number I believe. Discuss here:
