King Cruise is an aftermarket add on. The cc_5 cylinder is what moves the
throttle and gives the analog movement of an air cylinder a digital signal for
the control. This is done by the rheostat or variable resistor on the rear of
the cylinder. It is usually a blue color and must be handled gently as it is
obsolete of course. The 2 solenoids that are mounted to the top of the control
box is what meters are in a positive or negative pressure to the cc-5 and the
rheostat send positioning data back to the control. To the end of the cc-5
cylinder is attached the cable that moves the bell crank of the throttle. Now
then. The inversion valve gauges the pressure build up in the system and is
designed to vent the cruise air pressure to atmosphere when the control set
point is reached and drops the cruise out. Much the same as the electrical
signal from the break will drop the cruise out.

Cruise?) cruise control to the 80's PT?
