ON TPS or MAF , for an FC where do i get one?

hey i have an 88 Fc and just like all of yours it has a problem lol

a weird idling problem, but it idles fine, this problem seems like it has a broken vacuum hose but it doesnt.

when i come to a stop and press the brake she bogs out and dies.

and when i rev it up on the way back down it goes "chug chug chug....chug chug"

from what i hear its the Throttle Positin Sensor OR the Mass Air Flow sensor?

where can i get completely new ones?

heres my car btw
