Does it have an auxiliary pump like a 123? Gerry From: "Dieselhead" <126die...@gmail.com> I know the OM603 is slower to warm up than the iron head Diesels. It is because the engine is more thermally efficient. It might make sense that the 606 takes

Re: [MBZ] '95 E300 with OM606 - how long to reach operating temp?

Max, I'm on my second '95 E300D and I believe these things seem to take a while to warm up. My old 300 TD, a naturally aspirated 123, always automatically started the heater blower at the same spot less than 1.5 miles from my house, at any OAT (outdoor air temp). On the other hand, these NA 606's

Re: [MBZ] '95 E300 with OM606 - how long to reach operating temp?

Thanks to Curt and Loren for their inputs. Tonight I timed the warm-up, and it was about 4 minutes once I left work at ambient temperature of about 50 degrees. When it was below freezing earlier this winter, it took longer but I think 10 minutes is an exaggeration. -Max -Original Message---

Re: [MBZ] '95 E300 with OM606 - how long to reach operating temp?

I don't have a lot of experience with turbo diesels but I don't think that my NA diesels (2x 240D, 2x 190D) take particularly long to warm up. In fact compared to my gas vehicles ( Dodge Dakota V8, Ford Ranger v6, GMC S15 v6) I think the NA diesels warm up faster... I figure on having heat by th

Re: [MBZ] '95 E300 with OM606 - how long to reach operating temp?

I know the OM603 is slower to warm up than the iron head Diesels. It is because the engine is more thermally efficient. It might make sense that the 606 takes a little longer. But those with 606s are in a better position to answer. I've never driven one. x Dieselvolk, I've been driving

It is a lot easier if you drop the side by taking out the two subframe bolts on that side. You may as well change the subframe mounts while you are there. And, the LCA should be done at the same time, as all the links have to be taken out again to change the bushing in the wheel carrier unles
