OM605 running rough
OM605 running rough
Oh and I'm also loosing coolant. It started with 1 liter every year and now I'm loosing 1 liter in about 2 months. No obvious leaks. Could this be related somehow ? Bad head gasket due to overheating ??
So I have a '96 c250 with a mechanical pump from om602 non turbo.Besides from low power(the pump only fuels for a NA OM602 so i have like 90-100hp) it was running ok. Last year i noticed a slight clicking from the engine, sounded like it's coming from the head. Recently it started running rough, especially when cold but it starts ok. It will run rough until it warms up then it sounds like it has a bad injector. I can hear a chuffing sound from the intake manifold and my guess is that i'm loosing compression through the intake valve. I haven't yet taken off the manifold to check. What could the reason be ? Bad lifter ? Burnt valve ??
