She finaly runs.... but ! Smokes alot

I finaly wrapped up the engine swap in my 85 300D last weekend. I drove it for about 20 minutes and it ran pretty good, it smoked a little bit but wasnt too bad. Yesterday I cranked her up and let it idle for about 45 minutes while I was thinkering with the AC. I went for a drive today it was really slow and it smoked alot too. It's much much slower than when I first got it running last weekend.


I also noticed thet the little rubber hoses that connect the injectors together are leaking a little bit. Anybody knows what type on hose I need for that and where I can get it?

FYI: The engine that's in there was in my wrecked 300d and ran 100% perfect before I pulled it out.

Another bug that I guess I need to work out is that when I turn the ignition off, it takes a few seconds before the engine shuts down. Before it would shut off instantly.


Hopefully I will be able to get rid of all of these problems and be able to daily drive it soon.
