I have a 79 300 SD.The engine occasionally lopes or rocks at idle.
I have read about the rack dampner adjustment. Although I have not been able to find the adjuster.
Could my Timing pump be to old to have one?

Yes, the first year to get the rack dampener is the 1980 300SD. There was a service bulletin telling to retrofit the new backing plate onto the old pumps.

If your interested I'm sure I've got a used pump backing plate with a dampener.
