throttle position sensor wanted

[Ade]

hi, does anyone have a good TPS for a 1990 turbo going spare? I have got the bosch part number and have identified the right one all over the internet but it seems that a suitable replacement is not available? surely you can get one somewhere? I've come across loads of listings but they're all expired ebay sales of used parts or sites that say 'out of stocK'

I noticed that it's shared with the porsche 944, there are other volvos and saabs that have the LH2.2 but they're not listed as sharing this part but it must be very similar. If the pin layout and connector are the same (and i had a saab and seem to remember a very identical looking thing) could something from another LH2.2 sytem be made to fit/work? i would guess the electronics are the same but perhaps would require modification to fit a different throttle body layout?

Help and thoughts required please!

Thanks guys (and gals?)

Ade,

I think ignitioncarparts.co.uk have them for about £30.

found it, looks promising and reasonably priced too. Even says 'in stock'!

How is it that you know of this magical supplier??? No amount googling of that bosch number seemed to find that even though the number is on the page?!?!

None of my usual motor factors could find one available, I thought it might be more or less unobtainable!

Might just drop them an email to confirm it but thank you.
