Late versions ('85s) have the combined switch underneath the throttle body,
but I don't see that either.  MAybe the cable goes to a cobbled up switch
and they just bailed on the WOT switch?

Yeah, that is not what I have either.
It is rotated left 90 deg from what I have.

What the heck is that cable coming across the top?

Hmmm...  Bentley shows several variations on the throttle valve
switch.
The
text indicates that a faulty switch or improper adjustment can cause
the
irregular idle that I'm experiencing.

Problem is, I can't find it!  I see NO electrical connections anywhere
near
the throttle body nor do I see the adjustment plate or the switch
itself!

Can anyone help?   It's a 1985 1.9 L Westy Weekender.

I have posted photos of the throttle mechanism from two different
angles at
the following link:

Thanks in advance!  (TIA)
