I got my thermo-time switch hooked up, It doesn't start up as quickly cold but it definitely runs better cold. In removing the top rubber cover of the air flapper housing I decided to check full throttle. I realized I was only getting 20 degrees of rotation out of the throttle plate. I got distracted by this, adjusted it and took it for a drive. Massive improvement... I found my loss in power!

So I also looked for a while at where the safety switch is. I felt the connection, wiggled it while on etc, no avail. Connection seems good. However I can't tell how the switch is supposed to actuate? I lifted the flapper and lowered it... I don't see anything resembling a switch... Is a contact thing? I tried bridging where I thought that might be and still nothing... What do you guys think? I need help to understand the type of switch used here... I can't determine it on my own.

Thanks!
