almost everything you posts to everyone is negative and more about your opinion that repairing something
you and katjek are the reasons i stay off the forums and just realized i am wasting my time on them again, last post for me for a while
will say this, i put 40,000 miles a year on just my main driving car which right now is this cdi and i check every single fill up, so i do have a good idea what mpg my cars are getting and when something is not right and how it affects my mpg
i keep a bottle of the gas leak tester in my car that you can buy at home depot , it is like $10
this is what i put on the injectors and it bubbles, so you know you have a leak
sorry i just saw this thread again to reply about the gas leak tester stuff, hope you figure out why the car seems underpowered
the only time i have noticed a little underpower type issues it turned out to be a caliper hanging

On a "Technical Services" specific forum, you should expect to be challenged when making claims that need amplification, as to exactly how the claim(s) being made is/was arrived at.
I simply questioned your post-content, to provide that testing methodology AND data that would back up your claim(s) made above. I see you've provided none.
My memory was exactly correct - I wrote above asking if you were the guy that claimed in the ; "45 mpg range?" So, I looked it up courtney, in fact you stated here on PP on
3-16-2013 Diesel Discussion [update on my 1999 e300 thread] Post #10, that your E300 got "44mpg !!!"
If that car model '99 E300 gets over 32 mpg? I never got that on the identical car from new 15-years, and recorded every tank fill-up mpg. I never got over 31mpg on the identical car.
However, I'm seeing that you've decided to go negative, courtney.
Thanks for your reply.
