I just used Chris Foley's excellent rebuild kit on my leaky MPS. After removing the spider webs and varnish it all went together nicely. Chris gave me some great tips on getting an initial set. I think it is there but I don't have any experience with how a well tuned djet 2.0 914 should run. I suspect there is probably 150k or so on this engine although it could be lower, I doubt higher unless it was cared for very very well. Impossible to know with the dead odometer. Compression is great on all cylinders with no variability.
I took a little video of a drive, start up, corners, and two pulls to 60 (of various quality). After the first 40 seconds I opened my sliding rear window so you can hear the engine sounds better. https://youtu.be/Fi4vFCWhlCw |

Speaking of MPS's, here's a great 3D rendering of a D-Jet MPS from a wiz on benzworld.org and his D-Jet website

There is some amazing stuff on that site. Including a link to this video for tuning an MPS on the bench using the MPS 'Tune-o-Matic' and using other MPSs as a tuning template. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MQ2pD9wv3g Looks like they've made plans available to build your own Tune-o-Matic. What a time saver it would be in the rebuild process to have this on hand. MPS Tune-O-Matic |

It looks like he's making built to order Tune-O- Matics available. If anybody is interested, I can provide his contact information. |
