Title: 7042238 What is it on the airhorn?
Post by: SUPRCHY on December 29, 2025, 03:04:02 PM
  Hi,

     I picked up a Cadillac 7042238 Qjet and it has a feature I've never seen before! On the top passenger side front is a spring loaded pin through the airhorn. It's similar to some Oldsmobile Hot Idle Compensator covers i have seen. It looks like a tiny fitted spring loaded pin, nothing else there. I've included a picture of the item. Anyone know its function?

Thanks,

Suprchy
