Weird thing on my throttle linkage

Post by Fine59 » Tue 7. Nov 2017, 18:21

Who can tell me what this is and what it is for on my throttle linkage? Someone mentioned a rheostat, but what does it do. It looks to be stock equipment. There is also a cable that goes from the linkage to under the dash. The cable seems to be frozen and the rheostat slides on the linkage. I’m getting ready to redo the motor and would like to bring everything back to original

Could it be some kind of cruise control?
