Your receipt says only 6 glowplugs . Most likely the hardest to get to weren't done. If you have an infrared heat gun you could shoot the exhaust manifold right where it comes out of the head when you start it and see which cylinder/s aren't warming up as fast. It would be a 2 man job and...

So why are you messing with an old MH?

Looks like maybe a glowplug not working or an injector is sticky or some air in the fuel system.

TDCO is high should be a code for -2.02

That's one tiny turbo

The obd1s would get stuck and be hard to get unstuck once you hit -2.02 IIRC. The obd2s don't seem to have that issue.

Try unlocking the TC going up the hills or even dropping to 3rd

Check air filter

My 96 went to 305k before the crank broke. It had massive blowby, I'm assuming from getting too hot. Never did anything with the dampner, My 99 is at 285k and blowby is still OK, noticing lower oil pressure though. IMO getting hot is the main culprit with these engines

Check with glagulator about the harness

Any ds4 engine I've worked on didn't have any marks

must be an obd2 system. PCM tells it to run for a bit on key on. no oil pressure present tells it to turn off

The zddp is for flat tappet cams not roller

You need to get a scanner on there that can read the data live to see what's being commanded vs what's actually going on. Have you checked the harness plug at the trans to see if it's oil contaminated?

So when you jump to the high rpm it's because it's going into neutral?
