Default DIY Tps replacement writeup.

alright, its pretty simple all in all, im not calibrating it myself, you can do it your self though.

so...

first, i unhooked the wire harness clips from the MAP and TPS sensor.

second, unbolt the intake arm(charge pipe for me) and disconnected the throttle cable

the tools needed to remove the throttle body from the intake manifold
-flat blade screw driver
-ratchet
-12mm socket
-extension
-pliers(needlenose)



third, i unhooked the coolant lines running to and from the throttle body

fifth, i unbolted the throttle body from the intake manifold, 2 bolts, 2 nuts on studs. i also picked up a new throttle body gasket.



sixth, since the bolts that hold the TPS on dont have heads, i used a screw extractor to remove them. i used a #2 extractor with called for a 7/64" size drill bit. center punch the bolts, drill in about 1/4" pound the extractor in. turn it counter clockwise and they *should* come.






the hole drilled



extractor pounded in..



and out it came!



throttle body with the TPS removed



the new omni power TPS the gasket and two fun colored screws i had




i had two screws that fit the holes, so i used those, you may have to pick some up from the local hardware store wosret case. i also cleaned the throttle body with gas, a little brake cleaner and parts cleaning brush. doesnt really need to be done, but i did it anyways.

had to quick to a reference check on the other car on which way the TPS goes on.(got interrupted and i forgot how it went) so i took a picture since i had the camera in hand...



here it is, TPS in just waiting to be calibrated. installation is reverse and should be very easy.



hope it helps someone.
