Finally got my 85 190D where I can drive it, so have been driving that
for the last couple of days. It seems like it has less power than the
84's I have had. I really have to rev the piss out of it to get it
going sometimes. Anyway, I put a set of wheels at tires for a 124 on
it, and the tires are actually a little bigger than the usual 124
tires. IIRC, the correct tires for the 201 are 185 65 15, and for a 201
its 195 65 15. But, the tires that were mounted to the 124 wheels I
pulled and put on this car are 205 65 15. The first number is just how
wide they are, correct? So it should have any affect on changing the
gearing so to speak. Fuel filters are new, Im almost thinking the tank
screen might be plugged up a bit, car was sitting for lord knows how
long before I got ahold of it. Anyway, has anybody drove both years and
could you tell a different in performance? Or do I have a problem to
look for?
