You can find the the throttle body by following the accelerator cable to its end.  As far as the forks go the seals might be blown.  You can rebuild them for much much cheaper than retrofitting them.  I rebuilt mine and put an airbag in to help.  I hate to say it but this group doesn't have much activity.  Try going to the GO-4 Interceptor owners Group on facebook and join.  There are quite a few members constantly asking questions and posting answers every day.  The web address is https://www.facebook.com/groups/445796918961476/  Go there, ask to join and I'll approve you within a day at the most.

One thing was the air filter was awfully dirty, so I replaced it and the housing which was broken.  Now, it seems like its idling really high - it wants to take off as soon as I put it in drive, not just creep, but really drive.

I'm tempted to retrofit the leading-link setup they've got on the newer models.  And I wish I had asked the guy I bought it from for the nerf bar, as I've already smashed one of the lights on account of them sticking out the way they do.
