601 Tuning for performance questions from Newbie
Hello,
This is my first post, as I have been able to find most of the info I am looking for through searches, so thanks for all the past posts. Now, I have some questions I need answered and don't know where to look. The car is: 1984 190d 2.2 with 241k miles, 5speed, mint california car that I traded a racing kart for. The car smoked for previous owner and he lost interest, my brother's repair shop did a head (had a blown head gasket), timing chain, tensioners, guides, injectors, glow plugs, timed the IP with a dowel-type tool. Two under hood fuel filters have been replaced as well as the air filter, return lines and EGR components. Motor mounts are new, and engine shock. The car then sat for a year with a tank full of B100. I am trying to run the B100 out of it, but might need to drain the remaining 1/2 tank if the minds on here see fit. Sounds like some diesel additive might be appropriate. Currently, here are my questions/plans:
Thanks in advance for any help, and I will try to get some pictures of the parts/cars up ASAP. Trevor www.grasspass.org |

What I Think
Blue smoke is generally caused by oil burning. White smoke is generally fuel. You will get more smoke from regular diesel than from B100. I find my 87 190D to be quite slow with the 2.5 NA I suspect that you will find it difficult to get a significant amount of power from your 2.2 without a turbo and lots of boost. Other than that good luck. Dan
