No. There is a spring that goes from the pump to a little bracket on the timing case, but not all the way to the radiator. I would guess the stock spring broke and somebody rigged up a replacement.

it is part of an upgrade to make the throttle easier to push. some first gen trucks had an excessively hard accelerator
