OM648 swap into a w123
Ok,.
Well it runs and drives like a stock vehicle. Tip start and all. The transmission tune is now so close that I almost forget sometimes that it is not stock. I switched over to one of my modified valve bodies a few weeks ago to do some testing and tuning on that and I had forgotten how close I had the stock setup tuned in. It took me a bit to get it back but there are some holes still with this tune.
The only thing I have not had time to figure out for sure and I think it has something to do with outside temp input is the glow system shuts down early when it is cold and it smokes. It all turns on and the car starts up right away and then after a short period it shuts down and the engine is not warm enough to not smoke a bunch. But I also have straight exhaust so there is not dpf or anything either.
