The cars with TCS only have one cable. The throttle, and the cruise cable, both go into the little box on the passenger side fender. From that box there's only one cable running over to the TB.

If you don't have TCS/ASR, but do have cruise, you have two cables on the throttle body.

I had to drive my car today b/c it is going to a speed shop for the cam install, but i have a question i drove the car 20 miles, and the catch can had about 1/4" oil in the can.. Why after 20 miles???

Is that normal. Also it being so damn cold here, the oil was not dark in color b/c A) the oil has only about 200 miles on it b/c i did an oil change beofore i put the car in storage. And it was a milky color sorta.. Is that bad?? like i said there is not miles on this oil b/c the car really has been sitting since October....

Help.... Any ideas?

i dont know why there is so much of it, but that milky color your describing leads me to believe it has water in it, most likely from the condensation inside the valve colors that doesnt burn off when you only make short trips which sounds like your case
