Is it better to run the throttle to a turbo diesel engine wide open or at minimum throttle?

It depends on the load placed on the engine. You won't get a lot of additional horsepower, or "boost" from the turbo unless the engine is working - as in pulling a heavy load or operating hydraulics etc. You can run the throttle wide open, but if the engine is just running, and the machine it's installed in is not moving then you're just burning fuel. Other than that, more load=more throttle.

Where is the throttle position sensor on a 1995 dodge ram 2500?
Gas engine, on the throttle body. Diesel engine, on the injection pump.
Where is a vacuum port on a 6.0 diesel engine?
Diesel engines don't have vacuum because they don't have a throttle plate.
Where is the throttle position sensor located in a 1998 dodge diesel ram 2500?
It is on the part that the throttle cable hooks to on the engine.
Which is rated better diesel or petrol engine?
Each engine is rated better for different things. A petrol engine generally has a higher horsepower than a diesel engine, so acceleration and speed is often better on a petrol engine. Diesel engines tend to rate better with torque, so they are better at pulling heavy loads, which is why diesel engines are used in trucks and locomotives.
Will diesel engine work better with a spark plug?
Actually , there are no spark plugs in a diesel engine
Why does a diesel engine not produce enough vacuum?
As a diesel engine does not have a throttle valve in the air intake, no useable depression is created in the intake manifold. That is why diesel engines are fitted with vacuum pumps to operate the brake servo.
How do you find diesel adulteration?
If there is adulteration in diesel, you will gt late throttle response. There will be ignition delay. A good diesel gives wafer crisp power delivery & quick throttle response. Good quality diesel gives excellent low end torque & strong pulling power from lower RPM. As per obsevation of Multijet engine of FIAT :- In multijet engine, good quality diesel burns with clattery sound on idle. In multijet engine ,at cold start ,Adulterated diesel gives diesel clatter but diesel clattter disappears when engine goes to operating temp. In multijet engine at full operating temperature diesel clatter disappears & engine revs like petrol engine without sound of diesel clatter.
What is the minimum temperature in a diesel engine cylinder for the fuel to ignite?
35 c
Who is better gasoline engine or diesel engine?
diesel. Diesel engines tend to have better efficiency especially at less than full load. Gasoline/Petrol and LPG engines tend to have better power weight ratios.
Where is the throttle position sensor on a 1999 dodge diesel?
It is part of the assembly on the engine that the throttle cables attach to. It is also called an APPS, accelerator pedal position sensor.
What is the minimum compression ratio for diesel engines?
Around 18:1 will give a running diesel on a engine such as an old perkins 4203
What is Diesel additive?
Diesel additive cleans the injectors, therefore the engine is cleaner, giving a better performance.
