Please Identify This Part

[thundermax]

Was changing the spark plug on # 4 cylinder, right front, yesterday. As I tightened the spark plug something fell on the ground. This little clip. Am trying to figure out where it came from.

Please let me know where this goes. Thanks. R

I believe it's from the Scoop.
It holds the Rubber to the bottom of the scoop.

You may be on to something here!

I had the same part fall on my 85 when I was doing some work to it. If you pull the scoop on that side you should see the others still there on the whelp rubber.

Either from there or from the faux tank rubber that sits against the gauge cluster

Yes, either the scoop clip or the faux cover "mole" clip (there should be about 6 of them on there). Can't tell the size by your picture. The mole clips are silver vs the coppery or black color of the scoop retaining clip (on the right side scoop).

You guys were right on! The clip fell off the bottom rubber on the right scoop. Also, the same clips hold the rubber on the fake tank cover bottom.

Thanks a lot. Guys on this forum are great. R
