Someone gutted the cruise on my truck and I'm wanting to put it back so I'm watching carefully.

Check the vacuum lines carefully. I think there is a do-dad on the brake pedal that dumps the vacuum to the servo if you push it. Not real sure how it works. It may litteraly be a piece of hose that the plastic bumper seals off.

Wish I could be more help on the electrical side. Check the plug that goes into the servo. Check to make sure your vacuum can doesn't have a big hole in it (the coffee can thing).

Good luck.

I found my problem! After testing everything,pulling my hair out etc. It was the cable at the injection pump! It was properly connected to the other throttle cable but the other end where it mounts was loose.So instead of pulling the throttle the cable was being pulled to the throttle lever. A hose clamp is now what is holding the cable from pulling through the mount.
