engine very clackety and starting to get vibes at 1500 rpm 99e300
the engine has always been kinda clackety since i bought it at 165k. Now its at 175k and the clacketyness has gotten a little worse but over the past couple days it has started to have a real slight engine vibration at 1500rpms. My brother used to have a mercedes diesel and he was saying that the heaters may be bad? I was standing next to it yesterday talking to my old man when i had started it to let it warm up a little and I noticed that it would be running smoothly then all teh sudden the clacketyness will just start instantly...then it will get a little better....but it was a sudden change. I just did a fresh oil change with mobil 1 5w40 with filter and that didnt make any difference. I just dont know much about diesels so I don't know what the problem may be...i figured i knew mostly everything there was to know about engines....but diesels are a different animal.

Hello Darkostoj,
Welcome to the forums. Check you engine mounts. If your able try running B99 (BioDiesel). It works great as a solvent and will clean injectors nicely. Or you can try Diesel Purge. (Do a search on Diesel Purge and it should bring up some messages to read). Diesel Giant has a really good tutorial on how its done. I'd do the easy stuff first. Either BioDiesel or Diesel Purge to clean the injectors and see what you have afterwards. There are links also on how to check the motor mounts. Hope that gives you some idea where to go. Bob

The "heaters" is undoubtedly the glow plugs. If they are bad the light ought to stay lit.
Check the top of the IP for fuel leaks and the clear palstic fuel lines for bubbles and report back. You don't say where you are located; if in a freezing local it may just be the difference between D2 and D1 fuels.
