Hello all,

First, I'd like to say that I am glad there has been a continuation of interest and support for an American Superturbo forum. I was a member on Shuman for awhile, but when I returned yesturday, it seems (and probably for quite some time) that the Superturbo forum was taken down and this site created instead. Glad I found it.

Now, about the pump. I have been holding onto this gem for quite some time now (two years) with the idea of creating my own Super-turbo Mercedes based on that of the green wagon from Finland. Unfortunately though, due to financial constraints (I'm a poor college student) I am forced to sell and be contempt with keeping my car stock... for now.

So, I am putting up for sale my modified Mynä-Diesel M pump for Om 617 engines. This pump has been completely redone by Mynä Diesel; seven mm elements--the biggest available--along with all gaskets, proper tuning, and some other small modifications, like the boost aneroid you'll see in the pictures. The pump is capable of supporting the fueling of up to three-hundred horse power, according to Mynä Diesel, with the proper air flow rates--different Turbo, porting of head ect-- and correct timing. It is my understanding that there is another forum member, on this site or another, who has the Mynä pump and actually ran it on a dynamo. Just on the stock set up he reported roughly 140 horse power at the wheels! As you can see there is incredible potential if this is coupled with the right setup.

All told, including shipping (120$), cost of the pump (300$), and the modification itself (1,250 Eur~ or 1,700 at an exchange rate of 1.36$) I have about 2120$ dollars into this piece.

Ideally speaking, I would like to recoup as much money as I can but given our current economic times this is probably not feasible as most of us don't have extra cash lying around. This is why I am willing to negotiate on the price and possibly by as much as a couple hundred dollars or more depending upon the circumstances. Keep in mind that since its modification no additional miles have been put on this pump. It is still dry in the orginal box that it came in. So please, if you have a price in mind contact me and we can discuss it. I would really like to see this go to a functioning project, to someone who will use, instead of it sitting in the corner of my room, and hopefully others too will be inspire to get their projects going.

Also, I will be uploading all receipts except for the original cost of the part as the pump was just bought informally from a friend's Euro 300d. In addition, there are three photos of said pump one of which is labeled with some numbering. This numbering was done by Anti before shipment of the pump back to the U.S describing all the various features and tuning options available--the shutdown aneroid, the fuel lines, and the primer pump were not installed yet when the pictures were taken. Upon request I can also email you the correspondence Anti and I had as the process took place.

If anyone is interested please email me at mpapiri2008@gmail.com and I will try to answer as many questions as best I can, although I think most of you probably have more technical knowledge on the subject than I do.

One last comment about shipping. I am willing to ship this international and depending on the final destination, I might be willing to contribute to a portion of the total shipping cost.

Here are the pictures and some comments that I received from Anti before arrival of the pump

1) Max fuel delivery adjustment. It is now settled to max and if

That is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Sorry, I don't have the money, but if I did I would buy it.

Same here. I know I want it and I know I'll get one maybe next year but definitely not today
I'm also really close (East Bay)

Same here, if I had the cash I'd buy it now.

I don't know why they need the oil line, mine does perfectly fine without it. The oil supply comes from the timer bearings through the pumps' cam nose.

Count me in the "want, but no cash syndrome"!


Good luck with the sale Mike. Maybe you can convince Zach to buy it!

Mynä-Diesel Pump now 1500$ without shipping.

Will this pump work with 602 turbo?

No. That's why I need it.

If I was not already in the process of getting my pump done I would buy it, I am trying to justify having two pumps...

I would also have to change their version of an ALDA, it simply wouldn't work where it is located.

This fellow Mario was able to start a 602 on a 617 pump. Not sure how it performed though.

Doesn't sound all that good that point, but maybe a little more tweaking might get it right.
