Throttle Position Sensor

Does anybody know where i can get a Throttle Position Sensor, mine is busted, or so i've been told, and the constant reving is starting to drive me crazy.

Generally how much do they cost and would it be worth it to buy one?

Any help would be much appreciated

Or so you've been told? You would have alot worse than constant revs.... Something along the lines of the car not starting, bucking, hesitation, poor fuel economy, erratic transmission shifts(if automatic of course). Did you check your pcv valve, vac leaks, clutch spring( if standard of course ). ?

If your TPS was "busted" you would'nt be going very far at all.
as that tell the comp how far the throttle is open, car might start.
idle, but you put the jandal to the floor you would get nada.....

.........So what's the verdict mazdaownz. Was it the TPS or not? Did you get the revving situation sorted?

someone dyno-ed one @47kw through the wheels (why would you bother!)

it's actually a pretty fun drive, till you get to ANY sort of incline!
