THANK YOU Volker ! .

My Coupe doesn't have the gold (up graded) rack damper bolt so I didn't think it wise to fool with it .

I keep looking at junked injection pumps hoping to find a gold one , no luck so far .

I'll give this adjustment a go and report back .

I think the IP is kaput because I can shift into neutral when the engine is turning 3,000 RPM and it'll SPEED UP to 3,400 RPM and stay there ~ I left it racing and pulled over to check if the linkage was sticking / binding / whatever , it wasn't .

Still and all , the smooth , glassine power since I added the OFV spring , is nice .

I just did some math and discovered I've put over 70,000 miles on the rebuilt engine .

I guess this means I need to stop and gather up my core valves & get them mailed.
