Ok so im looking to buy a 91 civic hatchback

i wanted to get this one for 1100
91 HONDA HATCH BACK DONT MISS OUT ON IT

theres just a couple problems with it

one is that it needs a new TPS

what exactly is a TPS and what does it do?

im guessing u need it to actually drive the car because he said i couldnt drive it home

any help please thanks
 
Throttle Position/Angle Sensor

TPS sensor input is used to determine when the throttle is:

Idle
Wide Open Throttle (WOT)
Rapid Movement
During these conditions the ECU makes changes to the injector Pulse Width (PW).
The PW is widen slightly when the throttle initially goes to idle. Within a few seconds the O2 sensor will correct the mixture.


Honda does not sell TPS Sensors. you'd have to hack off the broken one and put a working one on.

DYI: Remove TPS (throttle position sensor) - Honda-Tech

Goodluck
 
thats pretty gay they dont sell them lol

and u gotta HACK it off
