Default TPS Adjustment?

I have a piece bolted on my throttle body that is slotted that you can bolt your TPS sensor to so you don't have to dremel out the holes in the TPS Sensor. I was adjusting my TPS down and tightened it too much and cracked the side of this spacer thing.

I can't find one anywhere on the internet does anyone know what I mean or where I can get one?

try ford, take the part to the dealership, tell them what you have and see if you get lucky.... otherwise the only other place i see you finding one is the junk yard

Is this piece I'm looking for actually a Ford part? It looks like an aftermarket piece....

.... why would you spend time and $$ in something that does not net any gains whatsoever. Adjusting the TPS closed position signal voltage is a myth. Make sure it's within its spec window (.6 - 1.1 vdc) reset the system and let the EFI EEC do its job.
