OK... this is on a 87 300SDL...

Part is between the oil filter and the IP. The throttle linkage is hooked up to it... Don't know what the big part is, but of immediate concern is a piece of linkage that is not connected and I can't see where it's supposed to go either.

Hopefully the pic explains it. Linkage to nowhere is on my finger.

Thanks,
Bill

Looks like cruise to me as well.

linkage mates up with a ball on the back of the injection pump lever IIRC.

I'm glad you agree.
