    1990 2Door EX-R 5Speed Q?

    Engine will not go over 3500rpm? Is there and easy fix for this? I have been told that all it is, is a TPS Sensor? Is this so? If so is it and easy fix?

    Thank You Much!

    Josh?

    its right on the backside of the throttle body, its a quick fix but can be tight fit for unscrewing it

      And you can't unscrew the stock TPS from the throttle body without modifying the stock hardware. I like to use a dremel with a cutoff wheel to cut a well-centered slot in the smooth screw head. Then you can use a flat bladed screwdriver to remove the stock screws. TAS sells replacement sensors with new hardware. Any 90+ Honda throttle body will have one you can use.

      You can test it's resistance and range with a voltmeter to see if it's broken, and you won't even have to remove it.

      The screws are M5x0.8 at the hardware store, and you may need a new gasket.
      If it's too hard to do this with the TB in the car, I'd consider removing the Throttle body, be careful with the old gasket(s)
