Dorman TPS Thumbs UP

i finally got my new TPS from the glovebox to being installed a bit ago. the throttle response seems much better, as well as smoother power, and more on the top end. definitely worth the savings! just thought i'd let y'all know.

Was it the Dorman or the Borg-warner that you got? Part number?

2 stroke, Did the improvement come from a better part like a upgrade or was it because the old part was going south.

i thikn its because his old one was trashed. its nothing special, dorman decided to take the initiative and manufacture the sensor rather then have to get the whole pedal, they have alot of good parts that are hard to get and cheap, you would be surprised what is in their catalogs
