74 KW = 100 hp.
Pumpe Duse is the german for Unit injector what is how the vehicle injects fuel. So the type of engine is recognized by the method or type of injection it uses and the numbers equate to the output in horsepower.
so yours is PD100.

PD 130 is the 96 KW versions and usually have some red lettering in the badge.
