Diesel conversion of my 1988 190E, help?
I am in the process of converting my 1988 190E from gas to diesel. I got the car with engine damage, the 2.3 #4 cyl. has valve damage. The exaust plugged and caused one of the valves to stick, then the piston hit and caused damage to the seat in the head. This engine is repairable with plenty of good used parts that I don’t need. I have a good 2.2 diesel from a 1984 190D to slip in. Has anyone here done this conversion and do you have useful input to avoid pitfalls? Thanks
