Not Monaro related but some of the more tech guys may be able to help. I need a new Throttle Potentiometer (TPS) on my ST220 Mondeo. Any idea where I can buy the sensor itself rather than the whole dame throttle housing (its only screwed on FGS!). Tickover has gone eratic and from reading up on the fault it seesm the idle speed control valve does not cause/cure it but people have replaced the TPS and alls well then. This would also tie in with the fault being cured for a while if you switch the car off then re-start it.

No air leaks etc etc and the revs can sometime hold on around 2-3k then slowly drop, blipping the throttle does nothing to help BTW.
