Kebowers, thanks so much for the info on the ASR system. I looked today at the wiring diagram and at my accelerator pedal and found no switch. I think my system,1991(early ASR system, m103 engine,CIS injection)differs slightly component wise from the newer systems.My system consists of the accelerator cable that is mechanically connected to the throttle potentiometer (R-25).The throttle pot is electrically wired to the electronic accelerator control unit. The control unit processes the signal and outputs it to the throttle actuator(m16/1) This throttle actuator lives under the intake and is connected to the throttle plate by an 8 inch adjustable rod.There is a safety switch in the throttle pot that is open@idle and closes@4-6 degrees open throttle.There's also a safety switch in the throttle actuator that is closed @ idle and opens 8-12 degrees output shaft rotation in the open throttle direction.If the accelerator pedal is in the idle position but the throttle actuator remained in the open throttle position these switches would DISAGREE and open the circuit to the fuul pump relay and shut the engine down.I really don't believe moving the throttle linkage at the THROTTLE POTIOMETER, where the cable attaches can do any harm since you are only eliminating the use of the accelerator pedal and cable and this systems safety features are in the throttle pot and the throttle actuator .Thankyou so much for your reply.Dan
