Ditto. I guess I should have said "correcting US, or giving more correct info", or something along those lines. I wasn't offended in the least, and was completely sincere in what I said. So If I'm reading you right the computer control that detects the EGR's operation was introduced in the 90 model year? I really do want to learn, not just about my car, but as much about MB diesels in general, as I can.

I did end up with a non-EGR engine with a non-computer controlled turbo and am very happy with it. It took me about a year of learning, thinking, trying, failure, etc but I finally got there. I was sharing some of what I learned to other 90 to 93 2.5 turbo owners. Keep up the good work, learn all you can about your car, and enjoy one of the best cars ever made.

Very good. That is what these boards are about. Sharig hard won, hard learned info with others to try and save them some of the pain. I'm soaking up everything I can like a sponge in hopes of being able to gain enough knowledge to "give back" myself.
