Post by: 91turboeco on December 27, 2005, 09:11:31 pm

when im driving slowly let say 2 gear barly on gas the engine revs up slightly like 200rpm without moving the pedal.

just driving slowly it acts like i giving more gas but i dont.
it dosen't do it past about 1/4 throttle. rmps only go up a few hundred then it act fine.

Well, if it was a carbureator I'd have some ideas... but I don't know on a diesel.   :?:

Does it burn any oil?  I've heard of diesels surging a little from oil leaking in from the valve guides (and motor oil becomes fuel for the diesel).

So, it just feels like it's running away a little bit?
