85 300D alternator pivot bolt

I'm doing that right now, there's no nut on that and it's a coarse thread. I don't know the thread pitch, but the bolt is 125mm long from the shoulder.

But I just replaced my old truck with a newer old truck, and now I'll have the time, and the desire, to catch up on all the deferred maintenance on my '85 300D. I'll be hitting the search function...

'85 300d

The shifting on my 85 is quick with a light pedal, when I drive it like I stole it it shifts way higher. It seems to be correct for the load I place on it, and consistent.

Accelerator pivot bushing play allowance

Couldn't tell you the specific as engineered, but the hard rubber part that actually connects to the linkage on the engine should have very little play. It seems to act as a bit of a shock absorber,...

I'd guess

A late 50's 190, but that's a fuzzy memory that my parents owned and fuels my merc addiction.

My uneducated video guess

Is that it's the injector on the number one cylinder, but that could be complicated by valve settings.

Vacuum shutoff valve question

Is the valve supposed to bleed off vacuum after actuating for shutoff? The new switch in our '79 does this, and works properly, but I can't remember if it did that when I put it in last year. I...

In the before shot, if you aren't keeping that plate with the idle/choke (don't know the actual term for this, but it controls the idle speed) mount and cable, I'm interested in them.
