mystery part
While replaceing hoses on the vacuum system, I noticed this part screwed to the firewall that wasn't hooked up. The wiper door and headlights seem to work fine, so I'm not sure what this is.
Here are a few pics of it as it was mounted in the car:
and
and here it is out of the car:
Any help ID'ing this would be appreciated.

It's a guess, but I've seen external control values for positioning the EGR value -- if yours is new enough to have that. Since many defeat smog controls, it would make sense it isn't connected.
Or maybe not?

In that case, to the junk box!

My knowledge doesn't extend to the 69s, so I'll bow out of this one (to be honest, my knowledge of the 77 I do own isn't bad but it isn't without holes)
Perhaps its a special powered deer whistle that continues after the vehicle stops to prevent deer from ever approaching your vehcile?

Well the wiper motor is definitly wrong. It's missing at least the headlight washer pump which should be on the drivers side of the motor.
So thats prolly what the mystery part is.
