If anyone in SoCal needs a TPS, I have a brand new one that I'll sell for $75, which is how much I paid for it. I was going to change mine because I was having TPS problems too, but I sold my 93 and got a 99 GS4 (I'll have pics next week along with a thread to discuss my thoughts about the switch to a GS4).

whats a vaccum gauge?

i went to the stealer today to buy a new TPS sensor but when i got home i found it to be a bit different. the last 5 numbers were different and the inside was a little different and it didn't really fit right. i'm going to bring it back and see if they did give me the wrong one which seems like they did.

anyways there is about a 1-2 cm adjustable movement when i went to reconnect the tps sensor. should i just tighten the screws up about center or should i turn it all the way one direction then tighten the nuts.?
