Cruise Control.....FSM No Help
Hey all,
I've got all the components (I think) to add cruise control to my '83 GS. I've got a complete stalk w/cruise button, a cruise switch for between the seats, and the big Can w/throttle cable that goes under the hood and hooks to the carb.
Question is, do I just start hooking this stuff up and go? The switch between the seats has a connector that looks like a logical fit....the stalk is a simple replacement and logical hook up (I think).....The Can can't be too hard....assume I need a manifold vacuum...the electrical connectors are right there, and hook up to throttle.... The guy who I bought this from also sent me what looks like a CPU he said it was the cruise control controller (not sure if he sent me the proper part or not) where does this go? Does it replace my current CPU?.
Before I go monkeying around with some pretty important stuff, I was hoping I could get some expert advice.

Does the cruise CPU look like the regular CPU?
I appreciate the offer, I will hit you up for pix once I'm sure I have all the parts to begin....
Does it matter if the cruise CPU is from a GS (if it was available), GSL, or GSL-SE?
Thanks, I take it everything else is just plug n play.

i haven't played around with the cruise control linkage on the carby but it looks like you will need those specific levers, you might need to find a second hand carby with the bits on it and pull them off

One thing I like is that Mazda provides all the connectors you need for every option, you just need to add the parts.
