Carb rebuild finished - where does this cable go?

I finished rebuilding the carb and I can't remember where the cable in the photo goes. It's on an 80 and I'm pretty sure it's stock. I labeled everything except the cables...all the others were obvious. I must have thought this one was too at the time of disconnecting.

No pic, but the cables on the nikki are the Throttle; Choke; and Hot(cold?) start assist, located on the drivers side wheel wall.

Sorry, just realized they didn't go through...too large. I compressed the pics. I got the 3 you mentioned hooked up, although you can't see the 3rd in those pics. That last one doesn't show up anywhere in the Haynes manual or the FSM. It's got that little loop on the end. Based on the curve of the cable it looks like it should head down below toward the throttle, but I don't see anything. Oh, and it runs to this thing attached by the passenger's side wheel well.

There is an aftermarket cruise installed, has not worked since I've owned it. Are you pretty sure that's what it is? If so I have no problems leaving it disconnected.

My guess is throttle cable, but I didnt even look at my cruise when I took it off. Who needs cruise when the pedal is to the floor? :P

Yeah, and since it doesn't work anyway I'm probably going to remove the entire thing.
