Where to locate my tps.

ike the tite, where is it? I'm riding a 22re (see signature). It doesn't seem like it'd be too difficult of a job. Looks like 2 holes and a plug to put it in. But where would I find it in the engine bay? Is it a difficult task that I shoud leave up to somebody else, or will it ony take me a couple of minutes?

Thanks for the help.

One thing I'd recommend doing is replacing the stock screws w/ 4mm x 12mm Allen head screws. This will allow you to easily adjust or remove the TPS w/o taking the throttlebody out should you ever have to in the future.

I'll let my mechanic handle that. If it needs adjusting, I'll pay the $30 and hour for it.
Any idea how ong this job would take?

It's a REALLY easy job...I found that the hardest part was loosening the screw on the bottom side. With it still in the truck it was a pain to get to, but certainly not impossible. Aside from that it's just a matter of turning on the multimeter and adjusting it.

Yeah. I watched my mechanic do it. Man, I feel like an idiot. It was reativy easy, and nothing broke on him. But I got that done, new fuel filter, Idle adjusted, and my battery terminals cleaned up for less then $60. I'm happy.
