300SD Adjusted valves by the book, now won't rev ???
n/aI am new to Mercedes and just bought a nice running 1982 300SD. I wanted it to run nicer so I adjusted the valves. Now it acts as though the throttle is not connected, but it is. Can't hardly get it above idle, even when I push the throttle rod at the injector pump. Starts easy, sounds good,
no smoke. I rechecked the valve adjustment, it is spot on .004 intake, .014
exhaust. I had layed the linkage over to the side, don't think I bent
anything-but the speed control actuator does feel limp wristed-that is no
tension. I double checked linkage-seems correct-the rod to the injector pump has about 3/4 to 1 inch of travel-is that normal? Don't know how I could have
changed that. Could the supply pump coincidentally failed? All hoses in right
