Accelerator component #1

Hello,

I own a a 1991 corrado g60 about a month ago I noticed my corrado wasent accelerating at all. I checked the engine and noticed the accelerator cable was out of place. Upon further inspection I also noticed that the component where the accelerator cable is wrapped around was broken. As you can see on the photo, the left piece (black rubber like hook) broke so the cable is not securely attached. Problem is I dont know the name of the enitre part. I removed the part and took it to an auto part store but no help there. Can someone please help me know the name of this part for my corrado? part number? or even where I might be able to order the part? I live in Hawaii if there is any where near. Thank you kindly for taking the time to read my post.

G60

I asked about that part at the dealership and he said it was part of the throttle body and you couldn't buy it without the throttle body. I wonder if a GLX throttle body is the same I was trying to find one I have here to compare it but I am not sure where it is right now

Hey thanks alot for the feedback, I heard the same from someone and yes it does seem like I would need to purchase the throttle body, I was hoping I wouldn't have too. Perhaps ill have luck and find a corrado for parts
