300d mercedes w123, vacuum modulator linkage plastic retainer
Hey everyone,
Where can I get the yellow retaining clip on the vacuum modulator linkage to the fuel injection pump? Or am up S#$% creek? Thanks for any help! Last edited by jdere31760; 02-12-2020 at 08:22 PM. Reason: continued |

Follow up for anyone with same issue, I used a rubber vacuum cap on the end of the linkage. Not exactly sure what size because I found a bunch of vacuum caps in a drawer but I believe it was the same size as the return fuel lines. Went on pretty tight. Let's see if it works!

Yes vnate, I used a rubber vacuum cap on the end of the linkage. Not exactly sure what size because I found a bunch of vacuum caps in a drawer but I believe it was the same size as the return fuel lines for the fuel injectors.
Hope this helps. |

IP Linkage Clip
O.K., I was wondering because these are important and without one the car wouldn't be much use .
I'm not hitting the junkyards right now anyways, I thought maybe I'd find one for you . I'm pretty sure stamped sheet metal throttle rod clips ('Jesus Clips') will work but you'd have to search a bunch to find the right size & shape .
