no it sits near the throttle body under the bonnet drivers side rite near throttle cable lever - in the old days there where part of an old su carby - i got the description from toyota parts catalogue thought it was a bit strange but that is what it is calledComment

If its what I'm thinking of, the dash pot slows the closing of the throttle for anti pollution reasons.
So if you open the throttle butterfly and then let it go, it should snap back except for the last 10 degrees
or so which will close slowly.
At least that's what used to happen on carby models.
