So I thought that a TPS was a TPS. But I call autozone to ask about a new one. Their computers had 2 different ones. Said it was for either engine code D or T. Mines T. But I have an edelbrock tb that came with a tps sensor. Would I need another one like that, or would any work? What is the difference in any of these?

hmm... You got me? what's wrong with the one you have now?

just play it safe and call Edelbrock, it should be very much for a new one

I was wondering if the one with the edelbrock was any different than the stock replacment tps's. I do need to call and see I believe. Mine is fryed.

Anyone think that the factory replacment tps works with an aftermarket tb? I figured it would but I dunno.

buy both and find out! return the one that doesn't work....thats what i'd do....but thats just me

I think I'm going to try the one at autozone, and get the one for my engine code. But what I don't understand is that the one that came on the edelbrock tb did'nt make a difference in engine codes. Another place I called said they made one for 5spd and AOD.

do they mount differantly? or is it just something having to do with volts?

Manual vs auto is the same.

There was an adjustable tps that cam on EEC-III cars. Ours being EEC-IV, won't use that tps.

Get the tps for your engine code.

What is the code you are getting for the tps?
Is it causing the car to run poorly?
It could be that the tps is not the problem, maybe a ground or short in the Vref. signal

aight, this is funny or dumb, according to how you look at it.

I was trying to set the voltage withour removing the IAC. I was using a screwdriver to hold up on it while trying to tighten the screws and I busted a hole in it. Noe it reads 000 on the measurement. I know, I know...I'll take the iac off this time around.

well the tps just tell the computer how hard your gettin in it, so the stock one should work.
