Re: [MBZ] throttle flap in 240d

The 82 on 240D's had a flap of some sort right at the throat of the 
intake that is not like the older 115 style.

123 240Ds with M-injection pumps (pneumatic governor) have a throttle 
plate while those with MW injection pumps (mechanical governor) do not.
The 615, 616 and 617.91 engine manual describes both systems. The US 
delivered 123.123s (240Ds) I've paid attention to had MW pumps, but 
that's not clear in the literature I've examined that only engines with

have been brought in.

I have seen them on 82 and up, but have no idea what its for.  So I 
guess I am no help.

Can anyone explain why it's there and what it does? The other car seems to
have had one, at least part of the linkage for one is there (and it's the
same year), but no longer does.

The throttle plate is used to control vacuum that is used with SOME 
injection pumps to control fuel quantity - especially at idle. In those 
engines if the intake manifold leaks (vacuum drops), idle speed increases.

Mac,
 
There is a venturi in the flap area which generates a vacuum signal that  
goes over to the fuel injection pump to control fuel flow via a  diaphragm..  
It 
is also said that the plate will prevent the engine from  running in reverse 
which used to happen with some regularity.

Is it possible that the 82 has a transplant of an earlier version of that

Could be, but I think you'd have interference between the oil pan, oil
filter and cross member.
