How many of you guys actually have your cruise control on your B2 still working? That's one of my next projects to get in working order.

Mine still works,, use it when-ever I get on the inter-states or 4 lane country roads. works like a charm. gotta be going bout 30 before it kicks in tho. comes in handy when my leg gets tired.

Mine works but I don't like to use it. The diaphragm is getting weak and so it makes the vehicle surge really badly below about 70.



Hey Jester, wanna send me your cruise parts if you rip them out?

Mine worked before I did the 4.0 swap. Now I need to get it hooked back up and working. I miss it!

Mine works in my 89. I use it coming home from camping... it's all downhill once I hit pavement :) I use it at other times too but I really only drive mine camping/hunting/fishing since I have a car for my DD...

That's why I want to get mine working for road trips and going on the interstate.

Sure thing. I'll shoot you a PM when I do. Might be sooner then later.

Mine still works after the 2.3 turbo swap, but I never use it as I do all short drives into town and trails so no use for it.

Mine didn't work at first, however after re-securing the switch down at the clutch pedal with some wire (clip seems to have vanished :icon_confused: ), it now work great. I use it fairly frequently on long highway trips, but almost nowhere else.
