I'm gonna look at your post for the TPS and see what's going on.

I know that many here will tell you its not a better choice for carburetor.

Thanks,

I got some great advise, maybe I am just not smart enough to understand sound advice.

I sure have learned a lot

I would not change an efi to carb. But if My current vehicle was before Fuel Injections I sure would not, Switch that either! In other words If I was restoring an old vehicle I would not use Fuel Injection I dont care how Fuel efficiant it is To me carbourated vehicles are not as hard to work on, in my opinion. and not as expinsive to fix either. But I am old school though I love ford trucks man. But I hate all this computer junk.

I Hear you!

I am giving my best shot to fix what I have, later I will buy a older ford that is cerebrated, and try to make a hotrod truck.

But first need this truck fixed so I can get my butt back to work to pay for all this

I got a good deal for Hawaii, I paid $1000.00 in 2009 for my 91 F250 4X4 5.0.

The only thing I had to replace on it before I had this TPS issue
PCM, water pump, radiator, starter, Transmission, cluch, Breaks, one break line.

Need to replace my inner and outer bearings
