Dennis, I think you hit the nailon the head,again. I am doing electrical
checks and am  getting 13.5 V at the throttle switch.Sposed to be 5 volt.
Thought it was connected with anearlier problem where my dash o2 and alt
lights wont stay on after the engine is started.Tookthe dash cluster off
and looked for mixed up wires there.What you say makes perfect sence.I did
remove those connectors recently.have zapped two(2) throttle switches.I was
stumpped as I sat down at this computer.
I will switch the 2 switchwiresand probably get what I am looking for.Cant
do it soon enough.

As for replacing the cam and retainer when changing the switch, these two
items are included with the new switch.Yes, the cam did have a tad bit of
wear.Just has to make an old post 86 switch interesting to adjust.

I was able to adjust the switch from above with the allen wrenchs,and
couldnt figure out why I was having a problem.I like the 83.5  throttle
switch configuration better. I can adjust it without dragging out a drop
light,and dont need 2,3mm wrenches to adjust it,and the switches are ez to
replace wherener I screw the connections up again.The 83.5 set up does look
flimsy,but itis not. Just strange looking.

You say the bore is smaller? Was the bore on the switch I used to have
larger? Does this affect gas mileage or acceleration? Oh yeah, dont have
any acceleration to worry about anyway.

As for hooking up this switch and throttle, I didnt cut any wiring from the
harness. I added a connector from an old switch to the piece of harness I
cut form the doner vehicle.This will plug directly into the place where the
old switch did.

Ill let ya all know what happens.

Thanks Dennis
