i believe that to be the parking brake sensor that is part of the tors i think. i removed mine and not had any problem i also have the tors removal kit on my 2002

so i could just unplug it you think?also off topic before i drill my carb for the idle screw..after i drill my carb and use the threading bit do i go clockwise or counter clockwise?im just trying to get it all straight before i start the project..thanks
personally id take the throttle cover off and take the whole switch out as its just a hassle(for me anyway lol) if it hangs down or you can just cut the wires after unplugging it so theres nothing hanging down
, and would need to ask someone else about the idle screw as i didn't use mine as mine decided to tick over without it.
I don't remember if it was in the throttle or brake lever but there was a small switch in one that I was going to leave off when changing parts from my 04 to my 01 and with it unhooked, the engine wouldn't rev. I wouldn't cut anything until you know for sure you won't need it. I had just unplugged mine and when it didn't rev, I remembered something that I had read. When I hooked it back up, everything was fine. If you don't want it but need it, I'm sure you could test to see if it was a normally open or normally closed switch and wire to make it read like it was working. I'll clean all that stuff up when I take mine back down to do the finish work, I want to have all the building and modding done before I make it all nice and shiny.
File the boss to 90 deg before you drill, then insert the tap and turn clockwise.
As soon as the tap starts to bite and cut threads the rule of thumb is to turn the tap clockwise for one revolution and then back off half a turn the cut the swarf off.
Lubricate with Metholated spirits or if you have none WD40 is a bad second choice.
Clean every little bit of swarf out and remove the burr inside the carby before you insert the screw.

Ok i got the idle needle in and all cleaned up real nice..now the cable that is included in the kit how do i attach it to the needle and spring and everything?
- Put it in the holder- slide the clip over- tighten the two screws and your good.
thank you..i did that now on the moose steel braided cable the ball that goes in the throttle mount is round and just slids through the mount.should i bend the mount?or does if i hit the ball with a hammer so something will it slightly flatten out?
hey slick do you know how the thumb throttle assembly goes back together?when i put the new cable in the spring pop out and and dont know how to get it back together
