Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)

This sensor is mounted on the carburetor or throttle body unit. The sensor, a variable resistor similar to fuel tank sending unit, signals ECM of changes in throttle blade position from closed to wide open throttle.

NOTE: The 2.8L engine with manual transmission uses a vacuum sensor for fuel enrichment.
