ok...just so i don't have to go back and read through 3 pages of threads.....
have you checked to see the fuel is clean....?
are you still using the same tank of fuel.....or is it having the same problems with fresh fuel......?
have you checked the fuel filter to make sure its not blocked.....?
are you getting full throttle at the butterfly when the accelerator is flat to the floor.....dont laugh.....it happens more often than you think.....
have you checked to make sure that the metal fuel pipe from the injector pump isn't cracked and leaking.....common prob too....
and also make sure the air cleaner is clean as well......
these are some basic and free checks......if this is still the same problem with different fuel.....then theres always the chance you may have got some diesel bug.....
thats why the fuel filter needs to be checked.....give it a shake and pour some fuel out into a clean container...preferably white or glass....pour out some fuel from both sides of the fuel filter.....and see how that looks.....
im assuming you've already checked the water sedimenter in the bottom of the filter for water first......?

Some more points:
Intercooler - Have you cleaned it out?
Fuel sedimenter - Drain & re-fit.
Fuel filter?
Turbo to fuel pump hose... Is it OK?
As for the fuel pump boost compensator. It is actually quite an easy job. If you do a search, I've done a couple of detailed(ish) writeups on how to do it.
Good luck.

Im reshuffling the schedule ATM, Send me a PM in about a weeks time and I might have an at home slot for you, might not be long enough to fix it but should be long enough to diagnose it,.

Vlad, do you have a EGT gauge? If so, is it reading higher than normal for a given rpm-gear-speed-load?

SubscriberDave will do.
Other q's people asked:
No EGT guage.
Problem has existed for numerous tanks off fuel - like heaps so that's not the problem I think.
No I haven't checked the fuel filter. Where is it?
Sedimenter? WHat? Where?
How can I tell whether the throttle is fully opened when pedal to the floor?
No i haven't checked the metal pipe
air cleaner seems fine.
No I haven't cleaned out the intercooler. I had enough drama just accessing the bottom hose I have no wish to give myself a bigger headache and even think about removing the intercooler !
The hoses all seem to be OK.
As you can see I have little mechanical nouse so will be talking to Dave about it !

The fuel filter mounts on the inside edge of the right hand guard at the front, kind of just behind/back from the radiator.
The sedimenter is beside the fuel tank on the left hand back corner.
A question for Camel-landy (or perhaps Blknight):
Does the 300Tdi have a butterfly/butterflies? I thought the only common/popular diesels that did were later model Toyotas. I certainly don't get vacuum in my inlet manifold.

Now that I think about it, it can't have butterflies. There's no throttle linkage to the inlet manifold. Is that right?Originally Posted by rainman

No butterfly

Check the water trap,if you don't know what it is it hasn't been cleaned out and is probably full of fungas.Do a valve set. Pat

Pat, what do you mean by "valve set"?
