isn't that a sign of a stuck egr? (Mine departed BEFORE they caused problems, but 1987 is the newest, so no computer junk.)

Re: [MBZ] Soot on the Boot
Rolled up behind a white 2014-2015 Cruze a couple of weeks ago, it had the green Clean Turbo Diesel badge on the back. It also had more of a sooty film on the back than I've ever had on my white 300SD. I could see it from 100 yards away, and tell what it was from more than 50' behind it. I thought diesel particulate filters were supposed to stop that from happening. And the Cruze has a computer that knows how everything is working and parks you if the emission controls aren't functioning. (unless it has a delete tune in it) Mitch. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] Soot on the Boot
Dry soot or greasy soot? Check for boost, proper boost control, and excessive oil consumption, all of which are turbo related. Do you have excessive smoke when doing the "smoke test" -- wide open throttle, third gear, about 50 mph. If so you have a fuel delivery issue, turbo problem (lack of boost, so excessive fuel) or low compression. Low compression isn't a sudden thing as a rule, usually gradually gets worse. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
