Hello,
No, no. The gas lever is set correctly. However, its effect only extends up to the middle position...
I was able to fix the error today (after having removed and reinstalled the fuel injection pump 6 times and disassembling it again

).
You wouldn't believe what the cause was...
The bypass control valve on the return line

.
I had installed the correct hollow screw with a restrictor, but I had modified the piping of the return line because a part of it had broken.
This resulted in a low internal pressure within the pump, preventing the motor from reaching its full speed.
Now I've installed a throttle in the return hose, and the engine has become much more responsive.
Best regards, Rodion.

Okay... after a 1500km tour, I haven't had any negative experiences

.
Interestingly, the pump doesn't perform as well with cold oil.
It runs at a maximum of 2500 RPM. But it doesn't really matter, PÖL is a thing of the past... Especially considering the prices

.
The emergency bypass valve also performed well
