alda fitting - boyt - 06-05-2013
Hello has anyone fitted the alda kit to 603 them selfs. It looks easy enough to fit. But is there instructions how to set up. Regards andy

Do you mean retrofitting an ALDA onto an injection pump that previously didn't have one?
RE: alda fitting - boyt - 06-05-2013
Yes the one available fro dieselmeken.

I've fitted a Dmeken ALDA to a 606 pump myself. Fairly straightforward to fit although it does need fuelling limits set up in a pump shop. I had a couple of fitting issues and reported them back to DM who says he has modded the new kits he now supplies.
Good service I thought.

The fuelling needs set-up. You can't simply plonk bigger elements into a pump and expect the rack et al to be adjusted to the correct settings. Since I'm going down the route of standard 606.962 I asked the pump shop to set the idle and max fuel to the same delivery figures as a W210 300TD electric pump, with max fuel being at 1bar to coincide with the 1bar ALDA and wastegate.
I cannot speak from experience as to whether this will work because today was the first start the engine has had in it's new chassis and that was for a brief second and at idle. In a couple of weeks or so it hopefully will be on the road and then I'll know if it's correct....or not.
