Ported TB and Cruise?
My car came with a ported throttle body. The problem is the cruise cable won't fit the stud. What years used the same TB? The car is a 2000 and the TB stud for the CC is a flat "T" shape, like a nail head. Do I have the wrong year TB or cable? Any help would be great. I'll take a pic if needed.

The TB spring appears to be powder coated or chrome. I'm sure that is not factory. Anybody confirm/deny this info with a color? The cruise won't work any, I think I have a dead module, but when I get that fixed I want the cable to stay on.

It probably has to do with whether it was a TCS or
non-TCS car. The non-TCS have a second cable
that snaps to the throttle cam stud up at the top.
TCS cars have a single "gizmo"-to-TB cable and
combine the pedal and cruise at said "gizmo"
instead.
You can swap over to non-TCS cruise & pedal
cables; I did. Don't have the P/Ns handy but the
counter dude could look it up for you.

The car doesn't have ASR. I'm guessing maybe my cable is wrong or broken. The TB is probably off a truck since the engine came out of a Yukon. This is the problem when buying someone elses car.
