Funny you should mention this. I saw someone who had a Nissan Diesel and he swore by putting a little Methamphetamine into the fuel tank! Corse he also repainted his truck with a brush!

A set of nozzles is about $100. To get them pop tested and shimmed is another $100. or so.

I'm not sure if the experts would choose the '85, but that's what I would use. That '83 is too pristine to mess with IMO.

my 85 is really fast great acceleration.


all though my 83 is a turtle not even kidding. i was thinking it be a nice birthday gift for my dad since the 83 is his but i mainly drive my 85. the 83 is in a way mine but my dad bought it new but didnt maintain it cause the diesel shop that worked on benzes went out of business in 1995. so after that it pretty much got all gooked up and with my ideas i want this thing to rippp and he will be happy.
