    MEP-016D load test failure.....

    I'm going to do a project that involves putting a 3kw 4 pole head on an L100. I have researched the L100 power curve and also looked at the 1800rpm 3kw DJA.

    I believe if it was an electrical problem the engine would not drop rpm. If the engine is producing black smoke when loaded then it is either a dirty air filter or obstruction in the intake (found a shop rag in one once!) or injection timing (unlikely since the pump is shimmed and does not...
