engine oil to lubricate throttle linkage of W124 diesel?
A mechanic seems to have used engine oil to lubricate throttle linkage. Is it good?
I think it is engine oil because the spill under the linkage onto engine has the same color as the spill around breather hose and oil fill cap. The MB maintenance CD file suggests "only ATF" to lubricate those linkages.
