Hi Chris,
Where is the Rack Damper Bolt located? Do I have one on my 91 300D 2.5T?
Thx -

ambienttemp)iscold
Got to this yesterday. It (rack damper bolt) was all the way in. I
turned it out, with engine running and things....changed. Went all the
way back in and nothing - it's only when adjusting out that things change
and you can adjust it. Very interesting. SO, I adjusted out till the
engine stopped shaking (although my air filter is shaking like CRAZY AND
ALL 3 bushings are new AND still intact).
So, the car starts without having to push the pedal (not as perfectly as
before), no loping AND there USED to be a vibration (I thought alignment
since tires were just balanced) around 75-80 mph. THAT IS ENTIRELY GONE.
Aside from terrible filter shaking at idle (which is only reading 550 on
the tach, used to be 750), the engine runs MUCH more smoothly.
NOW: Should I turn the rack damper bolt out even further to reduce the
filter shaking and will that bring my idle back up?
Thanks,
Chris
