Throttle Rod Availability or ID, 1989 Jeep Comanche 4.0


Recommended Posts

1989 Jeep Comanche 4.0:    It's the linkage rod between the throttle body and the bellcrank below the throttle body.

I have not been able to find one.

Could you please tell me tell the part name, the P/N, or where I might get one
Thanks,

Dale

    I'm in southcentral Indiana.  The problem was that a rod end spherical bearing retainer failed,  Later I worked out a way to secure it with a twist tie.   I'll watch it over time. A more reliable improvised retainer option could be to slot a short piece of polyethylene tubing, slip it over the rod end and press the ball through the slot.

    But the twist tie repair could hold up over time.  I center-folded the twist tie at the narrowing point behind the ball and twisted it tight, 2 full turns.  Then reassembled the ball end, wrapped the twist tie ends over it and twisted the ends tight over the length of the wires.  This was one of the heavier bread bag twist ties.
