88 230E Diesel conversion

[Fergal1975]

I've converted my 230E to diesel. I've put in 6 cylinder 300d non turbo I'm looking for bracket to mount cruise control motor on exhaust side of block has any one got one I have the motor as I took it off the 230E engine .its bracket is not good as it was mounted under inlet manifold. Also there was a kickdown relay on the 300D Donner car but none on the 230E I've transferred engine transmission and drive line into 230E chassis.

Engine runs really well slightest little when idling cold but fine when warms up . Needs oil change been sitting up for a while . Could have went for a more modern engine but I wanted to have right for year of car . Want to get it on the road make sure there are no transmission issues ( kick down)

They are a great engine for sure and seem to run and run, there is one locally with 514000 miles .
