more lowend power needed!(Cheaply)

[Archive]

I have a 92 turbo diesel that is basically stock. Really! All I have done to it is had a minor pump turn up that doesn't smoke alot and the 16cm2 housing put on. That's it. What I want is a little more power off the line. It just doesn't jump off like I think it should. Is there anything I can buy like injectors or turn the pump up more? I am new at diesel ownership, so use a little english with me to get me strated. But the way for all the people that helped me with my "HELP ME" post, it cured itself? I guess, it doesn't have a rough idle anymore. Thanks to all...

3dracer check out tst's web site they have some good instructions on adjusting the injection pump(tstproducts.com). Also consider replacing the injectors. There are current posts on this. Next time underneath your truck check out the exhaust where it goes over the rear axle and by the transfer case if you have a 4x4. The exhaust can be completely replace with a 3 1/2 or 4" exhaust systems or just replace the crush sections with mandrel-bent pieces.
Good luck

Injectors are the way to go, you can get the power you want and tune the smoke out if you don,t like it, personaly i like to be able to make a nice soot cloud if the need arises (small sterio thumpin low riders come to mind, smoke in the drivers window and out the rear passenger side, it's a wonderfull thing)Ok back to he problem, you don't won't to crank the pump more than a turn with the stock injectors it wears out the cam plate and rollers, with a set of injectors
JRE,B&D,Ect. you'll get the power and be able to turn your pump back i'm running the JRE injectors and i went from a full turn back to a half turn and tightend up the AFC spring and have alot more usable power at all levels, if you hav'nt installed gauges a pyro gauge and boost gauge are essential for tuning, and on the early truck a nice freeflow exhaust helps too , and sounds GOOD!!
