86 Civic Si bucking and jerking at low rpm--1st or 2nd gear. I'm pretty sure this is due to a bad TPS. Agree? Haven't checked resistance yet. Anyone know where I can get a good used one of these without getting reamed by the dealer? I understand that I may have to get the entire throttle body to get the TPS.

Got 295,000 on this baby and only sensor replaced is the TW (coolant temp.)sensor; any other sensors I should replace? Probably O2 sensor? Others?

BTW, I joined back in 8/04 (obviously over 20 days ago), and cannot post a classified for this part, but have been absent a while. Can someone help me out here?

i needed a new tps sensor for my b16 after the old one got busted pulling the motor. I just pulled the tps sensor off the my old d15. It was riveted on their, but all that was needed to take it off was a hacksaw. I used torx screws to attach it to the b16 throttle body so i could remove it in the future. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I *think* 0.45 volts is throttle closed, and 4.5 volts is WOT. Hope that helps

 

new plugs...

 

Low V .465, peak was 4.98, no spikes ..

This is how the TPS I have my eyes on checked out. Looks ok, very close to your .45 and 4.5.

Thanks for the input.
