Ok well if some of you remeber I bought an 88' LX that died on me the very next day after I had bought it. Now I am going to small claims to get my money back for the car. So I got a reciept/ diagnosis sort of thing from my mechanic for the judge telling him whats wrong with the car and how much it would cost me. But one of the things he wrote reads "Rings no good." Now are the rings associated with the TB? And if so can I have alittle info on them so I know what I am talking incase the judge asks me what the hell that means. Thanks!

I think he was referring to your piston rings which have nothing to do with your throttle body.

So what do you expect to get from small claims court? Unless the car was misrepresented, you bought a used car without having it checked out and got burned.
