    T. P. S.????

    Does my LX carb have a throttle position sensor?

    The TPS is a sensor on the Throttle body of a PGMFI setup.
    The only real sensor you need to worry about on a carbed motor is the Oxygen sensor located on hte exaughst manifold.

    Ahhh man....I wanted to add this Zex system but it says you must have T.P.S on your vehicle to activate it automatically at full throttle..

    Excelent.
    That kit is designed for fuel injected cars. You need to find a kit for a carbed vehicle with a manual switch so you can control it yourself.

    Hey solja... you need a WOT switch. I've seen the fogger kit for the weber it comes with a switch that sits near the linkage and basicly all that happens is when the carb is at WOT the linkage on the carb hits the switch and turns on the solenoids.

    You can buy the switch seperately... I believe NOS sell it. I've seen one at checkers near the Stadium.
