[MBZ] Stars in the Air

[John Peterson]

It was a great day in Rhode Island.  Myself and lister Dwight Giles took to 
the wrenches and installed a new fuel thermostat and rear muffler in my '90. 
The fuel thermo was a PITA because it is a real tight fit- and the hoses 
(clamps) don't come off quickly.

We also filled the fuel filter with Lubro and ran it out.
The car is shaking quite a bit at idle, is lacking power, and from about 
halfway pressed down on the pedal to full throttle there is no increase in 
speed when driving- almost like it is "bogging down."

Could the violent idle and nailing along with the lack of power mean a bad 
spraying injector?

ANY suggestions what to try next?

Attached, a photo of THREE diesels in the driveway.  My '90, '91 and 
Dwight's beautiful green machine.
