Dreaded air in Diesel Lines
Have noticed car is sluggish!! Checked diesel pump and air in pipes.
have changed O rings, feed and return hoses, O ring in prefilter. O ring in fuel filter.etc even swapped feed line hose from tank. Only O ring couldn't get to is the shut off valve, cross threaded one of the torx screws and waiting to drill out. But car goes great starts great. Only problem is it is sluggish on load. No Ummfff. It's a TD 2.5. Sometimes it goes great. Like once a week. That is why I know car should fly. It just feels like an old non turbo car. It has been serviced with Mercedes parts always has 90,000 kms and is near mint cond. It's a Esprit so lowered etc it just drives without issue. Just sluggggg.
can anyone hellllllpppp before I am forced to turn it over to a specialist and bleeds me dry!!!!!
always serviced the car myself. Never had issues. Mercedes are quite easy to work on!!! And great cars!!!!
HELPPPPP
