The next upgrade on my 240D is the timing chain. In my usual
obsessive-compulsive way I am trying to understand all the parameters before I do it as I really don't like surprises in the middle of a job. What I am trying to get my brain around at the moment is timing the injection pump. Reviewing the manual on start of delivery adjustment, I see the "drip method" described. As usual, the description leaves much to be desired. The description says to pump up the fuel pressure with the hand pump and wait until it starts dripping about once per second--which is considered correct. I have some question to those here who may have done this before: 1. What does the flow look like when the pump is to far advanced? 2. What does the flow look like when the pump is retarded. 3. Any recommendations on doing this for the first time? I have seen these piezo-electric devices that allows adapting a standard inductive timing light to a diesel motor. Does anyone have experience with these? Do they work? Thanks in advance M. 77 240D |
