What filter is that?

Okay, sorry, this is pretty ambiguous, but on the 85 runner there is this filter that dangles from the bottom side of my throttle control. It seems pretty plugged up, as I blow through it and it's hard to get any air through. I'm at work, so I've got no pics, I was just wondering if folks knew what it was so I could hit Napa on the way home and get a new one if air should be flowing more freely.

thanks!

That is the dashpot filter:

Supposed to let air flow out slowly (to keep the throttle from slamming shut) and in freely.

Yotatech should give 4Crawler an award for knowing every obscure part about the 84-85 toyota
