    Push it and find out. Looks like some sort of throttle adjust for a PTO.

    i push it and nothing happens. I can't trace it out of the firewall because it's in a weird place and i dont think i'm tracing the right cable. Then, when i was down there I looked at the damn fuel filter, and some moron busted off the drain valve. Guess I should of checked that before I bought it.

    well, good news...i finally drained the fuel filter of the water, but I still have the water in fuel light on when the HT starts up. I had hoped...but time to swap the filter! I just don't trust that damn plastic drain valve...

    Just get up 30-40 and back out of the throttle. Then push the button and it should be very clear the change. . Mine is on/off with a switch and vacuum operated.

    When on it engages anytime you back off the throttle but I have seen manual ones. They are very useful on the Dodge.
