All was going so well until today when it starts fine, idle seems ok, then when I select gear it bogs down and goes very lumpy and then it will suddenly catch and be fine. So, after a bit of reading on this fantastic site I think to myself that it has to be the TPS. So i locate the TPS but it has no plug connected to it! . Im now really confused...I was thinking to just buy the plug and wire but not sure where it goes....Why would anyone disconnect the TPS?
