    tps sensor

    If it runs fine with no bog or hesitation then run it where it is at. the earlier it is the more picky they tend to be, the later they are then they have more of an adaptive feature.

    spark plug blew damage!

    WOuld be a good idea to pull the head, but if you where going 150 when it came apart then the piece is probably already gone, either it disentergrated, or you now have the rare "ventilated" pistons.
