sooo, i just went and got myself a stock 2.0L plenum with stock throttle body and TPS from EASY.
while i was cleaning the stuff i noticed that the TPS didn't have *any* gunk on it, it fact it looked shiny new. so i pop the plastic cover and low & behold it looks brand spanking new!
no wear on the sliders at all ...

so i'm thinking, can i use the stock 2.0L TPS with my MegaSquirt brain or do i need to go to a aftermarket TPS ???

also, when i took the plastic cover off 2 little rubber spacers (triangle shaped) fell out. i can only see 4 spaces where they might go, but which ones is it?
top or bottom?
