Mounting TPS

Which side of the tabs from throttle body do the tabs from the TPS go on? One way the throttle body and TPS move together. The other way the throttle tabs turn only tabs inside TPS.

Throttle body plate and TPS must move together.

Meaning when you move the sensor back and forth the throttle arm moves with it....this seems to not move tabs inside of TPS.

I guess my answer was cloudy.
The TPS internal tabs must move with the throttle plate.

OK. Was trying to hook up the TPS and was doing it so that the linkage arm was turning with TPS. motor was running all screwed up when turning TPS, noticed TPS tabs were not getting turned when this happened because they were not under tension when removing TPS. Pretty sure the TPS is junk, but motor is running alright, was not idling down when down shifting and coming to stop. Going to keep an eye on it and go from there.....been working on it for days and the whole time the TPS was in wrong...haha....not really funny.
