So, it's no surprise to me that these things are out of production, but does anyone make a reproduction cable?
I've been chasing a cruise control demon for a couple of years now. The car seems to surge badly on the highway when engaged. I originally chalked it up to my "far from stock" combination of parts and the untuned state of my ECUY and figured I'd live with it until I got around to tuning it.
Well, fast forward to now and the car is tuned but the cruise surges as badly as ever. I attempted to adjust the cable at the throttle body end, but it seemed to make no difference. While I was there, I noticed that the black plastic end of the cable that the adjustment is made from will essentially slide back and forth with next to no resistance on it what so ever....which has me wondering if the cable is either broke, or something is unhooked/broken at the opposite end behind the fender?
I plan on pulling it apart tomorrow (I'm already getting a headache thinking about it), but in the event it's the cable.....where can I get one?
There may be a bright light at the end of the tunnel, as I have a complete cruise control set up from a 4-cylinder car my brother sent to the scrap yard a year or so ago, but I can't find any info to tell me if the 2.3L and 5.0L cars use the same set up or not?
