I know what you mean - "electronic crap" is what caused me to sell a perfect
'99 Camry with 99K mi and buy our '91 300D with 99K mi. The Camry looked
like a sea of little black boxes & while it was perfect at the time
eventually problems would occur. I quickly realized I would never be able
to troubleshoot problems like I normally can.
Even back in '91 the electronic stuff on a diesel was really getting bad -
but nothing like a gas car! Electronics have revolutionized the modern
engine but without the proper (and often expensive) gear to check things out
it makes troubleshooting very hard. Especially for things that occur "at
speed". Oh well, it's progress I guess.
Have a nice week -

Nope... It has some sort of electronics crap to do it... ELR, maybe?
(note: I have a pair of om606.962's with way too much "electronic crap")

All of the om617's do.
It is on the end of the injection pump nearest the oil filter housing,
and it looks like a bolt with a nut that's screwed into the end of the
pump

Hi John -- Which models need to have the Rack Bolt checked & replaced
with the up-rated one? Not sure which one I have - or where to look
for it -

Do you have the updated rack damper bolt? The new ones are gold
colored and are SIGNIFICANTLY stiffer than the silver ones.
You shouldn't have to mess with idle speed.
What about the primer pump? Do you see any air bubbles in the lines?
