Tps on 20b same as TPS used on FD rx7?
My throttle position sensor is worn out on my 20b.
Just wanted to know if anyone has swaped a 20b TPS for a FD RX7 TPS? Or if they are the same?

The FD connector is a tap lock , the Cosmo connector is a rectangle and has a wire spring lock. It is also located on the front of the TB, FD is on the rear.

^Doh, you are correct sir. I am running a 13B TB. All those bad prior conversion experiences are now flooding my brain. I recall finding a massive hunk of sealant used to mate the 13B TB to the 20B UIM. It had solidified and cracked and pieces were chunking off of it into the UIM
Beautiful engine in that pic BTW.

FD and Cosmo TPS spin in opposite directions, as was already stated in this thread they are not interchangeable. They have the same footprint but will not register any voltage change when installed on the incorrect TB.
If you are using the FD TB just use a FD TPS. However using the FD TB has it's own fitment issues.

Back from the dead!!!!
I just picked up an 85 Gsl-se with a Cosmo-re swap. It has trouble idling and generally runs like **** (bucking and hesitating). While looking at the car I noticed the TPS had epoxy oozing out of it like the PO had opened it up. After reading Banzai's comments and suggestion about the Supra TPS, I was wondering if anyone has used the Toyota TPS? I picked one up used at my junkyard the other day. Car has power FC with Banzai's adaptor harness (nice bit of kit, btw) and is running rich as hell too.

Hmm, it looks like I may have picked up the wrong TPS. I went on info from a genuine Toyota parts site. I found the number for the Supra and it crossed to these vehicles. I pulled my TPS from a 1991 Landcruiser with a straight six. I guess I can just try it and see if it works. Thanks for the reply!

instead of taking the TPS apart..I got an idea.
Get an old throttle "tab" off another junk throttle body and score the tab at 90 degrees to accept the 1/4 turn you need to align the tabs on the Throttle body shaft to the TPS.
You put the tab back onto the Throttle body shaft in it's newly clocked position and can place the TPS back on at it's normal stock position.

I appear to have a dead spot on my 20B TPS, anything < 5% movement doesn't pickup, so I ordered the BECK/ARNLEY 1580531 which the lever is 180* out (see pic). So thinking it was incorrect, I ordered the Standard Motor Products TH218, which again is 180* difference. So now do I open my semi-working tps and see if I can swap the levers or attempt to find the real part number for the 20B?
