Wow that looks like it sucks if it breaks..

The MAF did resolve my issue it still idols a little rough at stop but its much better then it was. Next is plugs and checking all the hoses under the T-body

Any suggestions are always welcome

Thx

i need to bring this thing back from the dead. i have a 98 audi a4 i have removed the throttle body and discovered that the TPS i bought was wrong. in fact im not sure where the damn TPS is. i have various codes that point to the TPS like p0123 01545 and so on. do i just need an entirely new TB??
