300D Injector Rack Dampener Adjustment

[randal...@gmail.com]

Would someone please clarify for me the actual location of the Rack
Dampener adjustment. In searching the aft end of the injector pump,
near where the two lines emerge from the oil filter, the only thing I
can find that appears to be an adjustable bolt is at the BOTTOM of the
pump housing, and that appears to be only a brass standard-head
adjustment screw, but with no lock nut. Therefore, I am not sure if
this is it. I cannot find any other adjustment location on the back of
the injector.

Thanks to any or all...

It's dark outside right noe. When it gets light outside I will take a
picture of my pump and post it.

Here are links to some pictures of the rack damper bolt on my 617 5
cylinder diesel in a 1982 300 TDT 123 model:

Thank you very much for these photos, as they clear the question up
perfectly. I think I was looking for something more obscure down in
the back of the injector and missed the obvious thing right in front
of me.
