You could adjust all the linkages by the factory manual, but I suspect that you may need to adjust the idle speed on the injection pump. I think you need a 5mm box wrench to do the job.

The whole car shakes at idle on a cold morning. With just a slight throttle, maybe an additional 50 RPM or so, everything is normal. I did replace my motor mounts last fall, could this have altered the idle speed at all, i.e. if the motor is now sitting a little higher on the new mounts could the accelerator linkage need some adjustment? Once the engine has warmed up, the shaking at idle is much reduced.
