My 90's 300TDt had a plugged vacuum/pressure relief valve. Lines
clear, pressure in, no pressure out.
Replace it on the roadside an hour after purchase by swapping it
with the valve which was servicing the EGR. Same part, just different
hookup of lines and vent cap.
Risk at the time, was the IP or the turbo shot... Nah has to be no
pressure to IP (cross fingers).
Sadly the evil EGR was disable by my 'fumbling attempts" to *improve*
it's performance.

Seriously though, the 'low power' issue is probably either an ALDA
adjustment, or a plugged line between the intake and ALDA. When
running properly, this is not a slow car. A full buyer's guide to this
model is here:
