Who has arbitrarily adjusted the length of the throttle control rods?

I've been working on my 85TD and noticed that the throttle rods are way (some 1/2" or more) out of specs per the FSM section 30-300 for the 123.193 which I believe is the US version of the TD.


This car is sluggish off the line but the only things I've done that might affect running is adjusted the valves and changed fuel filters. Would you go through the FSM procedure and set the rods to specs?


I'm thinking of recording the initial lengths before making any changes so I can go back if necessary. Might this process be beneficial, a waste of time or detrimental?
