1975 300D Door Locks Repair
This weekend I repaired 2 doors using the rubber diaphragm kit from this website. However; on the front passenger door the pull/push knob stem seems to be dis-connected from the rod that is controlled by the actuator to lock and unlock door. Not sure what I need to repair, hard to see.
Also, I'm looking for the driver side door lock switch actuator that has the 3 vacuum lines, 1 in and 2 out but can't locate on this site.

1975 300D Adjust idle just a bit.
I would like to adjust my base idle up just a bit on my 1975 300D what's the best way to adjust?
Also, when I adjust the idle from the inside using the dash adjust knob, it seems to have an affect on the linkage making the trottle pedal a tad harder to depress, and it's not as smooth.
Any ideas or info would be appreciated, thanks.

1975 300D Post Valve Adjustment Pinging OK?
I adjusted my valves for the first time a few weekends ago. Two exhaust and one intake needed adjustment. Engine runs better but it seems to ping more when it's cold. Is this normal and/or OK. I certain that I did the adjustment correctly. Thanks.
