throttle body plug help

I took my throttle body plug off and now im lost. Does the plug point to the passenger side or driver side(what side do you plug it in) and does it go in with no tension?

If you are talking about the wires to your Throttle position sensor, it is near the firewall and the wires point to the drivers side. It snaps into the TPS which is a black plastic sensor.

Butterfly closed no tension on the sensor. If the sensor has tension on it that means the tabs are on the wrong side of the mating tabs on the throttle.

You will also need to adjust the tps. http://www.fd3s.net/tps_adjustment.html and https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...&highlight=tps read both of these and follow step by step. The factory service manuals also help http://www.wrex-racing.com/web/fd/info.htm#Docs
