It can be installed on the truck, but it's easier, in a way, to remove TB then install TPS. Lets you be a little more steady, less reaching in and easier to adjust. Can be a little tough hitting the bottom screw with TB mounted. Unless you have hex/allen screws.

 

How did you make out I got called to work early then I kinda forgot all about looking to now.

If your good to go great if not send me a PM to remind me.

 

hey thanks, my brother-in-law has one so I should be good to go....thanks again

 

Question, the part number is different on this sensor...... Will it still work?
# 89452-12040
198500 0330

 

Maybe !!!

Toyota is great for giving the same part different numbers

If the resistance is the same so your ECU sees the values it needs to see it will work.

I never needed to know if they were all the same from the mid eighties to 95 perhaps someone does know.

 

Thanks, by checking resistance does mean using feeler gauges and meter like on the crawler link above?

 

Yes if it gives you the readings your looking for your good to go!!

 

Yeah, when I bought one I just checked to make sure it would go open/closed circuit, and that the resistance sweep across its range was constant, and didn't have a dead spot anywhere. Many times, they're misadjusted when you find them still on a throttle body, so the exact resistance ranges don't always happen. An old school analog meter will pick up a break in continuity/dead spot a little more visibly than a digital meter.

 

well , the tps sensor I got will not fit on my throttle body , the plugin is different and it is clocked different on the backside. wyoming9 do you think you might have one? the part number is :
P125
89452-28030
198500-0201
