240D runs like poo.
[size=1]Help my wifes 1982 240D was running fine on a tuesday but when she went out to start it on wednesday it ran like it had a dead miss[:'(]
When I came home i changed the primary fuel filter and that seemed to cure it for two days. Then she called me at work and told me it was doing the same thing again, I just wonder if there is anybody out there that could help me with possable things to try?

RE: 240D runs like poo.
Several possibilities. Here are the most probable.
a) Algae in the fuel tank. Keeps blocking your filters.
b) A fuel leak. (Could also be a bad primer hand pump), Allowing air into the fuel system.
c) A bad load of diesel fuel.
d) Vacuum in the fuel tank. Remove fuel cap, and retry
