Tps

This is wierd and I am confused, but I can find anything that looks like the Throttle Position Sensor on my carb.

I have an 82 NA. From what the manual shows it should be on the front (looking from the front of the car back), but there is nothing there on my carb. I have looked under over through and behind everything and the only adjustment screws I can find are throttle and mixture on the right side.

Where did it go????? I need to either adjust it or replace it, but I gotta find it first!!

It's on the front of the carb, down by the throttle shaft, if the 82's even have them, don't know for sure. Do you ave a copy of the factory carb manual? If not, the link is in my sig line.

Yah that is the manual I am using for the 80-82 carb. I looked all over and didn't see it, is it behind something, maybe a hose or wire?

Follow the pic Doc posted. It will have a wire going to it and it's near the mop rod where it connects to the carb.
