Hello amigos,
I am pleased to announce that I have purchased a new camper. This does
have the original diesel TDI engine installed. It is a 1982 model. I am
noticing no great amount of power and fuel MPG of only about 25MPG. Is this
what is supposed to be? I know now not to put gasoline in this motor, like
my old one. I gave up on the trailer project as is was to unstable at
freeway speeds.
Is this the motor that I can use corn oil if I run out of diesel? Also,
it smokes quite a bit and when climbing hills laeves a good trail behind
angering many other motorists. Most noted when I climb through the
mountains heading east on I-5 from San Diego. Does anyone else's diesel
smoke like this on long climbs?
Thank You,
Javier
