A new dielel perfectionest?

Sorry for the spelling mistakes! Some perfectionest. Diesel Perfectionist that is.

I am the proud new owner of a 1983 300D turbodiesel and this forum has already started me on the quest to become a diesel perfectionist. I can fix anything until I break it, and I know nothing about everything. I love this car because I can get my hands dirty, pun intended, and have already learned more about the car than I ever thought possible. With over 340,000 miles logged much of the vehicle looks and feels new. Since I don't have previous owner records I have had her checked out and had all questionable items replaced to help prevent a meltdown. I'm working on the transmission shifting points and have found good information on this forum to help me resolve what appears to be my current only major concern. Can anybody recommend a good manual for throttle linkage adjustment?

Thanks. I'm learning my way around and trying not to re-invent the wheel as I go.
