New TPS boards can be purchased now from 914 Rubber or a few other sources. I'm sure others will chime in.

Yep

It is a simple process to replace worn boards
We have both 1.7 boards and the 2.0.

Here’s a link to all the boards

He is asking for the throttle body bushings to be replaced, not the boards!

not cheap

The TPS does not get rebushed only the throttle body.
I had two 1.8 throttle bodies rebushed by a guy in AZ. I could look him up. Not sure of the cost as the customer paid the cost I just sold and shipped them. Might be easier to get a good used one. I have a few. I think there are two varients on ports. We also found some with no hole, or a different size hole in the throttle plate. Can you post pics of yours?

i had mine done by Phil Eslin, he is the guy in NM, screen name is @Whip618

but he did a full clean, polish, new bushings all new shaft, butterfly valve, springs etc etc, and its better than new. Yes it was a bit pricey, i think about $350 2 years ago, but worth it in my opinion.

if i can find a picture i will post it. but for my d-jet car, with this, a new TPS, new wire harness and rebuilt MPS from Jeff Bowlsby, and all new tin and heater bits from bdstone, and a 123ignition distributor, it runs like a new car. And if you want a good running 914 2.0 d-jet i think you have to do all these things.

The shop needs the throttle body rebushed . They say it’s loose . Air bleeds by. Anyone have a phone number that they could pm . Or maybe a good used one with tight shaft within tolerances or spec ?
