(04-29-2013, 12:18 PM)Greazzer Hello,

I am wondering if anyone out there has ever sent their IP pump for a rebuild in the U.S.A ? If so, can you please tell me the name of the shop, contact info, et cet. Were you happy with the results ?

I have an unusual IP Pump. It's a MW pump from a wagon, 300D NA (no turbo). It does not have an ALDA, but it has something similar looking. I am thinking of swapping out my M Pump with this pump.

Thanks,

apparently a tech at another location in Fresno, CA is a self proclaimed Mercedes Geek and did the work on the pumps.

You are probably speaking of John Kaddy. He now works for Diesel Injection Systems in Santa Maria, Ca. 805.929.1599.

They/ he built my hybrid mechancial VE pump to replace the electronic unit on my OM602 DE29LA. I have nothing but HUGE RESPECT for them!

I do think John Kady can do something with the ChinaHanji 1 418 415 051 10mm elements for the MW pumps. Target 90cc and he should be able to set it up nicely.
Just tell him you are part of the Mercedes group he set up the MW pumps eith the 6.5mm p's and b's for some members.

John Kady is the fellow who setup those tomnik Holly element MW pumps. As Suave stated, he no longer works for BECs in Fresno. Good guy to work with though. In fact Kris Wolfenstein still sends off the Mercedes performance stuff to him.

Speaking of BECS Pacific, Kris sold his Bakersfield shop to them a few years ago. He now works for them. Kris would be a good place for stock rebuilds and offers good prices. He charged those tomnik build just over $500.00.

(05-29-2013, 09:48 AM)85-300D So Kris would be the guy to contact as John is no longer working at a pump shop? There are several numbers listed - which would be the correct one to contact the correct person?

(05-30-2013, 05:56 PM)85-300D I just got off the phone with Kris - great guy. He said that the pumps he built for the guys on this forum flowed about 30% over stock. I was really hoping for more than that. He said that he didn't now where the plungers and barrels were sourced, but they looked like good quality, and he didn't have any problem setting them up. So, which exact elements were these? He also said that he recommended using a little bigger injector with this setup. Anyone know what specific injectors he could be referencing?

(05-30-2013, 07:48 PM)85-300D From what Kris said, the price of the pump build, calibration, and elements was closer to $650. It really doesn't make a difference if we don't know where to get the elements or injectors.

(05-31-2013, 03:48 PM)Bangaway What size elements with how much fuel are you talking about?

(05-31-2013, 04:18 PM)85-300D

(05-31-2013, 03:48 PM)Bangaway What size elements with how much fuel are you talking about?

He said 30% more fuel. I don't know what size the elements were - he thought they were about 6-6.5mm. I am hoping that someone who was involved in this will be able to give us some more info

(05-31-2013, 09:54 PM)Bangaway I think the price is probably based on the time he puts into it without a premium added. So it's not that amazing. But it seems so because there are so few options.

(05-31-2013, 11:42 PM)85-300D So, what are our options for elements that are actually being manufactured, and in stock now? I havent seen any larger nozzles for our injectors - where can they be found?

Kris said that the price was lower to try to help us out, and he would try to fit the pumps in (may take a week or two).

(06-02-2013, 09:56 AM)85-300D I appreciate your help. Would you mind sharing what exact combination of parts has worked well for you, and where they can be found? This could save others significant time, headache, and money. I want to build the pump once, and not have to constantly worry about changing out parts.
