Hi, has anybody got a good working TP for sale? If so, please let me know how much you would like for it. The one on my Estate is up the creek and I believe causing all sorts of driving problems >:(

Hi Bogeyman and Tiberius, thank you for your replies :)
Yes :)it's the Throttle position sensor, the black thinghy that sits on the left hand side of the plenum as you look under the bonnet from the front. Ford call it the Potentionometer I belileve. This one I got from them last year >:(

If it's new, are you sure it isn't the connector plug which is causing problems? It's only a carbon pot like you'd find in a radio, couldn't see it wearing out that quick ;)

Regards, Bruce.

Good Morning Bruce,
thank you for your advice and thanks to everybody for your intrest and responces :)
I have just read Graham's email retarding The Beast in "Simplelists" and as he does not think that the TP is at fault I withdraw my request for a replacement.
The intrigue increases :-/
