[diesel_mercedes] Throttle Linkage '81 240D Automatic

 


Thanx Bill ! .

None of those worked so I tried modifying your search , replacing ' 240D ' with 300D then 116 and still nothing .

It looks like I'll have to schlepp on out to the Yards and do some walking ~ you know how much I HATE Junk Yards , right ? .

  . . . .

It drives about the same, shifts O.K. etc. but shouldn't wear out the throttle linkage parts I now need to go find in some junkyard or off some dead NA engine .

Looking underneath revealed it's been leaking a fair bit of engine oil in addition to the normal dribbling of ATF so I jacked up the front of the car and crawled underneath it with two cans of degreaser and a new paint brush and go to work ~ it's *much* cleaner now , hopefully I'll be able to find the oil  leak soon .

I took one picture of the clean engine and will prolly post it to - morrow .    - Nate
