    Default i made a boo boo !!

    I was putting on my new mace throttle body on and finished doing it. I hooked up my cruise control cable to the bracket as well but as I was driving the bolt must had come off because it was not there anymore. Just wondering if anyone knows what the name of the specific bolt which has the retaining clip on it; is as it was a odd shape? or anyone know where I could get one other than the wreckers coz its sometimes a hit and miss with them.

    ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!

    I think he means the bolt that links the cruise control arm to the throttle cable area. It is an odd shaped bolt that can fall of easily if not tightened enough.

    OP - Can't help with part number sorry. Ensure the arm is the correct way up though!!! I mounted it upside down after cleaning the throttle body and the throttle got stuck open on the highway at around 120km. Not good!
