The Hyperlogos

The Throttle Position Sensor (or "TPS") is an integral part of any electronically-controlled fuel system, even many carbureted systems. It is usually attached to one side of the butterfly valve which admits air into the intake manifold, while the throttle linkage is attached to the other. In carbureted systems, the throttle linkage may also have other functions; in fuel injected systems, it is the throttle position sensor which instructs the car as to how much fuel you are attempting to burn.

This is a Delphi Throttle Position Sensor that I purchased from autopartswarehouse.com. The cover arrived damaged. This device shows clearly the inner workings of the throttle position sensor. The part number on the sticker is 22633 KA040. The part number printed on the box is S10338-11B1. The UPC printed on the box is 89604 10589.

As I may have mentioned previously, my 1993 Subaru Impreza LS has a faulty throttle position sensor. I diagnosed it using a non-autoranging digital multimeter on the megohms setting. A better solution is to use an analog ohmmeter, or to follow the factory test procedure and connect a voltmeter to some of the pins on the ECU. So far so good. I ordered a cheap Delphi replacement part from autopartswarehouse.com, and the fun began.

This is a Delphi-made replacement throttle position sensor which fits all USDM 1993-1995 Imprezas except FWD (1.6 liter) models.

This 720 horsepower, twin turbo V12 was made by lopping two cylinders off of each of two "Romeo" [[ford modular engine]]s with eight cylinders a piece and welding them together. A custom crank (and nearly everything else) was created to build the powerplant for the [[Ford GT40]].

Pillow ball mounts use spherical bearings at the top of struts to allow them to pivot without a bushing. This reduces flex and helps maintain suspension geometry.
