Does anyone know of a substitute throttle potentiometer for a 3.9 - I thought there was mention at one point of a Napa or other parts store Xref, but can't find it now. Thanks, Bill |

You can get a OEM TPS for less than $60....why bother? |

Usually an auto parts store GM unit is only about $25.00 (if I can find an equivalent)......why pony up an extra $35.00 or so for a Land Rover box? Xref anyone?? |

I guess it just depends on how much value you put on your time. |

Hey Bill, are you talking about the throttle potentiometer? If so, is that located In the Inlet Manifold/Plenum Chamber? Thanks. |

Bill - I got a new looking but used 3.9 TPS from rovercannibal for cheap - no problems with it at all and fixed my 2500rpm hesitaion/stumble. Dave Geeek For Hire - Your comments are not helpful and make you look like a little snot. It takes 2 min. to switch a TPS. If you have so much money take your truck to the dealer and and be gone.

Hey JB. Fuck you. Many people buy TPS' for closer to $100 or $120 from a dealer. If Bill did not have a good source for parts he may have been one of those people. Perhaps he did not know he could get one for $60. |
