1995 E300D power issues
Hey Guys,
I have a question on my 300D. I tried a 0 -60 run today and it took 33 seconds to reach 60.
The fuel filter has been changed, but I have not yet checked the strainer.
I do not think that the strainer is the problem since this all seems to have started after the tach stopped working. It appears that the OVP is bad and I have not changed it yet.
The question is if the OVP could have anything to do with this. I cannot see how high the engine revs when I floor it and also when stopped at a light it does idle very rough. It seems like not enough fuel is getting there. I know from my SDL that when the ovp is removed the engine starts to idle rougher and lower and you loose a little bit of power.
The o rings on the IP are very dry as well. When i start the car the engine runs rough for about 5 to 10 seconds.
I wonder if all this could be related to the bad ovp?
