Default RE: '76 240d Smokes only on decel

Ok... That seems to be a guide for adjusting linkages... I went over it, and everything looks ok on the car...

but for some reason there just isnt a strong enough venturi effect coming thru the throttle body to generate enough vacuum for the IP control line.

there isnt anything clogging the venturi tube at all... and ive checked the tube for leaks... it holds vacuum just fine.

DoI need a new throttle body? or is there a calibration adjustment on the IP for the amount of vacuum in the control line / fuel output at idle?

thanks

So i replaced the throttle body.... same problem.

I took it in and spoke with a guy at a local shop.... he said there is goat skin in the IP that can wear out...?!?!? (good 'ol germans)

so thats gotta be it. Need to put in another IP i guess.

can this be done without disturbing the timing chain?

thanks!
