I cannot for the life of me find it and i think it has something to do with mods the past owner done on it and It is driving me to breaking point im at the point of scraping my TP and saying F*** you to cars all together with. I asked my good for nothing BF to help me and no he has a freaking headache and wont help me.

so anyone wanna come find it for me and fix the stupid thing up or tell me exactly where it is even tho you cant even see any parts of this car any good

sorry i need to vent pretty bad right now...

Female Magna driver asking male mangan drivers to find her TPS.. Most magna drivers couldnt find a womans TPS even if it had a Neon Light around it. :woot:

Why is it you think you have an issue with your TPS..?

Hahahaha !! So true!!!

The gears are reallly sluggish to change and only change after the car revs the arse end out of itself at 4 or 5 rpm And then it thrusts you into your seat and takes off

TPS is the throttle positioning sensor its used to sense where the throttle is lol in an automatic and it is probably why my car is sluggish to change gears. i swear if this is not the issue im gunna rip the shit out of my car lol

Nah like i cant find it lol I got a multimeter but cant get to it, I have to fix a broken vacuum hose cause i saw it was clean snapped in three when i took off the air filter today I been wonderign why my car has been running so lean so im gunna see whats going on there first i guess

Cheyenne

Ok so we fixed that hose that was broken and reattached another hose that was broken to the purge valve who would have thought broken vacuum hoses would cause my car to run like shit, gears are now changing at 2/3 rpm Thanks guys for the help! I think the TPs could use an adjustment but im gunna let it get tested when i go for a service

when you can might pay to do efi conversion as the carby on these are a pian . efi will also give better fuel econ and are easyer to work on. glade its now fixed. doug
