You can adjust the timing to get a little more power and slightly better fuel economy

Of course it is possible. Many arguments have been fought over 240D power improvements, but there are a couple of us that have posted on various forums what we have done to our 240Ds and the results.
Most recent is a gentleman that gained 30% more speed, based on a repetitive hill climb, and recently completed a 600 mile trip where he maintained his 31MPG to boot.
Even 10 more MPH at the end of a highway entrance ramp is worth the trouble. Been there, done that.
The main adjustments are “inside” the governor, and although there is some room for additional fuel, the goal is to delay the reduction of fueling by the governor as the engine speed increases.

Your last statement is not a good match for an older MB diesel as they require lots of maintenance.
If this is the car that you want to sell, I would seriously recommend you sell it and get something else that is not so maintenance intense. Not to be rude or anything, but this is not a good "learning" car.
That being said, I am not sure about the etiquette regarding linking other forums.

well im no car dumbie either. Im more of a TDI guy and this is a car i never really wanted, just had to settle for due to certain circumstances. I love the look of the car but hate how it has no power!
(10-14-2011, 09:13 AM)willbhere4u As far as adjusting the pump you may get a little more power but not much! and it will hurt M.P.G's
You can adjust the timing to get a little more power and slightly better fuel economy
im not to worried about MPG, if you ever wanna sell that turbo kit let me know!!!

It's near the end of this thread, by 47dodge. Non of these mods are easy btw, adjusting the pump, modifying prechambers, slapping a turbo on it, etc.

Ive been reading through some of the links and there is some good info on these forums but i simply do not have the time to make these kinds of mod, its not my skill just i dont have time. I think i will drive the car the way it is, get her pretty and sell her at the end of the semester. If anyone is interested in her keep in touch with me.

(10-15-2011, 08:37 PM)carlitosgy6 Im sure if its an Honda civic he will keep it and work on it
EDIT: No, im not a fan of Civics or hondas. Im more of a TDI guy myself. I would love to get a Golf TDI 5spd, then I would make time to work on it
Im sure you were trying to be funny, but in the end its what makes you happy and this car does not make me happy but hopefully it will bring happiness to someone else.
