Well, I proved it. The #4 outlet is not delivering fuel when an injector is
attached to it. I have some pictures of the setup and some videos. But they failed to deliver with the video so I will try it without for now.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Throttle Linkages

 

What the rubber worked for 30+ yrs, and how many miles?

I'd guess that the rubber connection took stress off other components, further down the line.

Rubber? On such a critical component?

When I drove the 4spd 240 to Reno this spring I had a linkage problem but didnt know it till I got back home and did the next oil change. I dont drive this car at all in winter, I drive a Outback. So to get ready for Reno I did everything, all filters, oil change valve adjustment, transmission oil. I always like to take a little spin just to check for leaks and such but I could not because we were in spring breakup and I would not of made it back home so I just took off for Reno. When I hit the paved road and put the pedal to the medal not much happened. It seemed like half throttle or my engine suddenly wore out, after a while it got up to speed, sort of. So any I drove to Reno, passed one truck, came home. When I was changing the oil next time I noticed the part of the throttle linkage(I would swear this is designed by Dr. Seuss), the part that is vulcanized together, it has the stop lever on it.  anyway the rubber stuff was almost all the way torn off and I was only getting partial throttle. Ha, Ha, maybe that was why I got great fuel mileage. Anyway its soooooooooooooooo nice to have parts cars. This part is the same on 300's. Max

I was able to do this to all the rods except the vertical one connecting the I.P. to the linkage , I had to lengthen it significantly more than the Wagon's one to make it all work .

I now have vastly improved " tip in " throttle response although the loping @ idle is still present  and the engine doesn't return quickly to idle when I release the throttle at freeway speeds , this is why I decided to tinker with it to - day .

I cleaned and lubricated all the ball pivots , most were dry yet again .
