went out today to replace my tps so i pulled the old throttle body off and began comparing the 2 different pieces i have and mine has a huge spring on it and the one i got does not have the spring and no extra arm to attached a spring to it. why is that? what are the differences and what are the advantages and disadvantages.
i do know that my current accelerator peddle is quite sticky and hard to push. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i113.photobucket.com-11576-1277830155.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i113.photobucket.com-11576-1277830157.2.jpg) |

The top one matches the one I'm using and my spares - the spring closes the throttle in case your pedal or cable breaks (I think - haven't actually tried it). Check pedal hinge - rusty?
