Where is the throttle servo unit?

I have a 1986 300 SDL with cruise control problems (of course). Would someone be able to tell me where the throttle servo unit is? I want to begin trouble shooting.

Thanks!

The servo is under the intake manifold behind the injection pump.

Start with the cruise control controller under the dash in the area of the steering column. Usually reflowing the solder joints get the cruise working again.

I assume reflowing the solder joints means lightly touching them with a soldering iron?

I hate to ask simple questions, but this is a bit new to me and I would really hate to break my beautiful car.
