'86 4kq gas pedal ????

[Stephen Arbaugh]

Need some help again (as always); 

Driving home yesterday I thought the throttle cable broke: gas pedal on the
floor, still idling. Find a parking lot, and sure enough there is slack on
the cable. Rig up the string to the window, limp home, order cable. So
today, I'm looking to swap it out and it turns out the cable is fine (if
old), and there seems to have been a silver metal thing mounted on the top
of the gas pedal arm. This was still connected to the cable and hanging
loose. How is this thing attached to the gas pedal? The remains of a rubber
thing are here and there, I assume this was part of the mount. What
direction did it face?

Told ya, full of questions. Any assistance on how to put this back together
properly would be greatly appreciated. Since I don't know how it looked
originally, I'm at a loss.
