I need to rebuild the injectors on my 1979 300TD, and I have a set of Monarks that I ordered here. I have access to a pop-tester and a shim kit.
I asked my mechanic about obtaining cores so I could do the rebuild at my leisure. He sold me ($50) a mixed set of turbo and non-turbo injectors, after measuring them and deciding it would work.
I don't think he's correct. I suspect the springs in the turbo injector bodies are stronger, and that no amount of shim removal is going to get me the required pop pressure.
Can you confirm or deny?
thanks!!
