The diesel idle control knob on my 83 240 is finally starting to fail. This is the rubber knob with Mickey Mouse ears that you turn to increase idle for cold starts.

Pelican doesn't sell those so I found the OEM somewhere else, but also in rubber.

Has anyone ever seen a metal one?

I get tired of changing parts like this when sterner designs would make them last longer.

Rant over, still looking for another knob out of metal.

Please PM me if you have one to sell or have a source.

Thanks!
