Have to say that I have not noticed a quieting effect, but I do notice the difference in smell. My 300Dt friend filled up (nearly full tank) and said he noticed the noise reduction the next morning. It seems that IP fuel delivery valve rubber (0-rings) are not terrribly difficult to replace, they come out from the top, with a special tool, of course. We are looking into replacing all of ours wtih viton/synthetic rings BEFORE any problems occur. Chris Luther Gulseth wrote: 270????? Sounds like a dog chasing it's tail! Where's the pump at?

An engine and IP could be designed to harness these extra BTU's, and I think Elsbett did it, then sold it to a Chinese company.
