I know that everyone here has D-jet but does anyone know of any L-jet gurus anywhere? My car has smelled like it runs rich since I got it. While doing some exhaust work this morning, it was confirmed by the black soot everywhere. I thought I read somewhere that these cars ran rich from the showroom floor. I have backed the idle adjust all the way out with no apparent change in the richness of the mixture. It did change the RPM to a point though. I read in one thread something about coming in from working on the car and smelling like I had been standing next to a diesel campfire. That's me!

Thanks for all the replies. I'll go through the basics as you have suggested. Reiche, what vacuum are you refering to being hooked up? To the regulator? I have gone through all of the lines on the engine several times in the past 9 months and have found nothing out of place. Also, I wasn't aware that there were two adjustment screws. I have only used the one that was obvious to me when I poked around looking for it. I'll give another look around. It seems to be something simple because the car runs very well it just smells bad.
