Fixed Cruise Control
Driving the other day I hit a fairly serious bump and the cruise quit. Thinking it was something easy, when I got home I looked at all the obvious sections, hose, electric connections, fuses, etc. Nothing! So I left it for a few weeks and yesterday decided to take off the unit itself. When I detached the boot that covers the accelerator wire, the chain had come apart. The connector had rusted. I put on another one and now I have my cruise back. Just a helpful hint for another place to look!

The cruise didn't work on my 94 when I bought it. One of the first things I fixed. Looked at the vacuum hoses, they were dry rotted and one of them was collapsed. I bought new hose, installed, and the system started working again.
