I just traded my 98 Contour SE for a 98 Contour SVT (God I love this thing). I was glancing under the hood for a place to run my power line for my stereo system and ran across a cable that's not connected (the connection for it is there). It comes from out of the upper drivers side of the firewall and leads to the throttle. Is it just the "passing gear" cable for the automatic non-SVT's? Or should it be connected?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like the cruise control cable.

So yes. If you want cruise; hook it up...

BTW - the ATX available in the CDW-27 platform is electronic. Kick down cables have gone the way of the dodo... wink laugh

I found a perfect sized hole (for 4 gauge) on the inside (behind break/clutch) and drilled from the inside to the engine bay, it worked out perfect. I also have a '00, don't know if that makes a difference...
