It seems like everything about Mercedes was better in the old days, especially the injectors. I returned all the Turkish nozzles today and I'll try to balance my injectors with the old German nozzles. First I'll do a lot of part swapping, and if that doesn't work I'll try to get some shims. Too bad there isn't some mechanism for easily setting the pop pressure, like setting the gap on spark plugs. That'd be nice.

kmaysob, using a pop tester is easy. The harder part is removing and disassembing the injectors as you have to work carefully and make sure everything is clean.
