OM606.962 Lumpy Idle
OM606.962 Lumpy Idle
My 606 always runs on 5 when cold, the DV's were weeping quite badly so I replaced the 6.no O-rings and copper washers and the fuel leakage has stopped but the lumpy idle remains..
When thoroughly warmed up it idles perfectly, and even when cold holding the revs just above idle it runs perfectly..
It has been suggested this could actually be a worn / faulty DV causing the issue, so I'm thinking crack each injector in turn and identify the faulty cylinder/injection line, but it won't identify potentially a worn injector (is this possible?).
Assuming it's a worn DV can I just buy a single DV from say Dieselmekken?
Interestingly it does run smoother and (feels) more powerful now the seals are replaced..
Anyone with a similar experience?

Why dont you think its a glow plug? If you are convinced its a DV swap it with another cylinder and see if the misfire moves.

Delivery valves and springs are still available from Mercedes dealer, so would not bother with dieselmeken. ca. 45€/piece.

It could be simply working the air out of that cylinder's dv system. My 602 does the same thing, it coughs and misses and smokes until it works the air out of the system. Even on a hot crank after it has been run, it will do it again until all the air is bled out the return system.
It smooths out after a few minutes of running
