Thanks, I am using straight diesel with power service additive. The car was not smoking when I purchased it, but the timing was off some. I think the PO got it running smooth just for me. I now know the power was low at the time of purchase, but hey. The compression is~350,350,375,350. The car operates at around 190 degrees F. The car starts up almost instantly after 1 glow cycle at less than 40 degrees F.
-I can do a video in a couple days.- -Can an EGR cause this? It is something I have not checked. |

My best guess: The ADA (non turbo version of the ALDA) = altitude compensation valve is set too rich. Be sure the ADA atmospheric vent port is NOT connected to vacuum... You should only make adjustments in 1/4 turn increments. * Turning the adjusting screw clock wise decreases fuel. * Turning the adjusting screw counter clock wise increases fuel. Your operating temperature should be around 176° F = 80° C. If the EGR is still connected, put a BB in the vacuum line, and consider installing a galvanized plate between two gaskets = from the EGR to Intake manifold = instant blank off. Read this thread The higher temperature and smoke where cured by screwing in the ADA. http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/diesel-discussion/300512-overfueling-240d.html Feel free to call me Tuesday. .
