ive seen a red one, best description i can give them is theyre cresent shaped, have a metal bracket and are bolted the the opposite side of the throttle linkage, they have a sliding bar attached thats connected to your throttle, and a triangular multi connector on it

ok cheers i only ask because sometimes my car revs really high and wont stop like somethings sticking, i changed the sliding plunger thing at the side as it was well caked up and i thought it was that, but still does it some times its very intermitent

so wondered if it was the tps

cant wait to get cvh in on carb and dizzy then ill know what im doing

Change the throttle cable, also check your vac pipe that goes from your inlet to the servo when I launch my car hard it pops out and once you let off the throttle it just keeps revving untill the limiter or I turn it off first

lol be at home with a carb and dizzy set up


nah smidgy to me it sounds like the TPS thats playing up, find another from another 1.1/1.3, dont go to ford they quoted me £120 for a new one, f**k that

i checked the vacuum pipe at the time its not that dont think its throttle cable as i dabbed the pedal several times but it made no difference, it just stopped doing it when it wanted

the red thing is the tps and you can just see behind it the plunger of the idle control motor, the tps is bolted to the same bracket as the idle motor which is like a cylinder with wires coming out of the top of it to a plug.

they are located on the right side of the carb under the airbox as you look into the bay, the tps also comes in black

cheers ive gone on over to that thread you put a link up for

so i dont hijack this thread

could you take a look and try help me out on there

[jonyb4]

mine had eaten through its wire sleeves, the 3 wires were touching and playing havok

[b0yracer]

[jonyb4]

the TPS is simply a potentiometer and they breakdown inside, giving false readings
