I live in coconut creek Florida and have had my blue 1983 240d Mercedes since '08. In October of last year the tranny went on the car and I was able to find a good deal on a 300d with a good engine and tranny. The swap was just finished as I have got a VW Gti so I let the Mercedes sit around for a bit. After finishing the swap I was disappointed by the power as I wasn't feeling much of a gain. I then did a but of research, and cleaned the banjo bolt with little difference. I ten decided to remove the ALDA and plug the line from the banjo bolt and the difference is night and day. I can't believe the difference! I have always been fond of my old diesel and plan on keeping this one for a long time.
